Neowin's Official World Cup 2006 Thread



Recommended Posts

The Australia game was amazing. They derserved the win right from the start. Birthday boy also scored two goals :p

trant, there isn't any player in the world that can single handedly "destroy" a team, I'm sorry. If Nedved and Rosicky are at their best and the rest of the team is mediocre, they will not win. 2 v 11 will not get you the win.

I think the Australia had the match because they supported the heat better.

We could clearly see that the Japanese defenders had no strenght to run at the end. Plus Japan attack had the oportunity to seal the victory 2 or 3 times and again we saw extremely tired (heat problems) players.

Anyway, congrats to Australia for the 3 points. Its what it matter.

Lets hope the USA x Czech will be as open as the Aus x Jpn.

Go USA !!!

US down 2-0 to the Czechs after the first half. Man, the US look LOST out there and their D is pathetic. They're standing there just looking at the ball go around them, and their offense is invisible.

they are not even playing like they are the 6th ranked in the fifa rank (not fifth like some people here say). Heck, they are even tied in the 6th place with another two teams.

I wouldn't say lazy. The US defense is just horrible.

The Czechs are going aroud them and they do nothing but watch. I think they're nervous and have a lot of pressure to meet last WC's expectations.

i think it was a huge mistake not putting Adu on the team. At least Adu would have given them a spark.

flipping heck.. does the USA team even know how to play football? all those crazy knocks and fouls on nedved.. sheesh this if football not american football.. serves the captain geting a yellow card after several attempts on knocking off nedved..

    • For the purpose that it was built for, it’s a great machine. It’s okay to own multiple machines, it’s okay for machines to be different. If every computer was the same, they’d be boring af.
    • OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT memory by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT's memory, making the system more capable, current, and scalable across long-term use. Memory allows ChatGPT to remember useful details about users, including their preferences, projects, and constraints. Instead of starting every conversation from scratch, ChatGPT can use this context to provide more relevant responses in future chats. OpenAI first launched saved memories in February 2024. That feature allowed users to explicitly ask ChatGPT to save information into its memory, such as travel plans or writing preferences. However, this system had limits because it depended heavily on users giving clear instructions to remember something. Additionally, saved memories could become stale over time. In April 2025, OpenAI expanded memory by allowing ChatGPT to reference past chat context outside the saved memories list. This was powered by a background process called “dreaming,” which automatically curates memories from chat history. This made ChatGPT better at learning from natural conversation without requiring users to manually save every detail. Today, OpenAI announced a more capable and compute-efficient memory architecture built on top of dreaming. This new system improves ChatGPT’s ability to carry forward useful context, follow user preferences, and remain accurate as time passes. According to OpenAI’s internal evaluations, the new system improves factual recall from 67.9% in 2025 to 82.8% in 2026. Preference adherence improves from 55.3% to 71.3%, while accuracy over time improves from 52.2% to 75.1%. The best part of this new system is a new memory summary page where users can review ChatGPT's memories. Users can even update details, correct information, or give instructions on what topics ChatGPT should bring up and when. This new, improved memory system is available to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users in the US starting today. It will roll out to more countries, as well as Free and Go users, in the coming weeks.
    • I work for a video production company in Australia. The camera operators shoot footage and then pass the SD card over to the editors. Much easier than handing over the entire camera. Plus, on a busy day you can hand off the SD card and then pop another in for the next shoot. Or, you might have used multiple SD cards because you need the extra space for a long shoot. I also use USB cables and wifi for transferring footage, but in many cases an SD card reader is the easiest method.
