[A JOKE TO BREAK THE ICE]

haha, as if anyone here knows how to kick a football!

A typical Neowinian looks like this:

So stay away from football and stick to talking about how cool it is to be an ultra nerd

[/A JOKE TO BREAK THE ICE]

lmfao, maybe the majority dont but i play football on a regular basis :)

no i didnt, found it on the net :$ im gonna make my own when i get some time

I support the Socceroos (Australian Football Team).

What a game against Japan. Hope for improvement in preparation for Brazil! :D

And to think you have a Dutch coach to thank for that :p

I support the Netherlands ofcource, but I'm not a hooligan or whatever. I generally like a lot of teams, England is one of them.

I'm English and live in England, and support Germany and think that this whole England flag thing is utter nonsense bordering on extremist nationalism. I hate all these cars with England flags attached to them.

Yeah, I hate going to countries that have there own national flag everywhere :rolleyes:

Imagine if i put a German flag on my car, imagine the reaction of some "England supporters" - i have no doubt that it would end in some kind of violence - which is the basis for my dislike of this England flag nonsense.... the kind of person who has one is by their having one, intolerant.

A lot of people who bear the England flag on their cars - and they're not in the majority - are more often than not, Nationalistic, Racist (look down on ethnic monirities), Daily Mail reading (thugs), most likely brain dead....

Bearing an England flag in itself is an innocuous act, but my point is that behind such an act: the difference between someone who will make an effort to do it, and someone who will not, often lies the kind of person described above.

Finding the flag on Neowin I actually cried out : "Nooooooooooo!" and seriously considered not visiting the site again until after the world cup.

In any case, isn't Neowin an extremely diverse and multi-cultural/national community. I find it a bit off putting that the site would declare it support of England so prominently when those of other nationalities are so often visitors here. It'd be better if a flag on the homepage wasn't there..... for all of us.

Dude, lay off the crack pipe - it's messing with your brain, seriously.

I wonder what kind of Englishman you are if the fact that YOUR countrymen once every 4 years for one month only display YOUR country's symbols in support for YOUR country's NATIONAL team? Crawl back into you hole, as you don't know the basic differences between support for your national team and nationalism, chauvinism and fascism. This place is better without you.

:no:

I don't see why Neowin can't back the England team, just because of "all the other nationalities" out there. What would be the difference if they'd picked KSA or Angola?

Everyone here supports their national team (for the most part) and those that don't support others. The World Cup is about bring the world together to enjoy a months worth of high quality football... leave the politics out of it yeah?

I don't see how Neowin can 'officially' back any team because not everyone on these boards is British or supports the English team.

So when England play Pakistan at cricket and all those people born n bred in England start displaying Pakistani flags and your Islamic brothers and sisters are cheering on a team that isn't from the country they live and work in are you whinning then?

From what I have read you have some serious racist issues yourself. I am mixed race don't let the surname Smith make you think I am not thats my fathers surname, my fiance is mixed race and our children also.

All our friends and relatives from every shade of colour down the spectrum support their country, their team and you supporting Germany over England means you hate England.

I suggest you go move to Germany and stay there. I lived there (Munchen) as a child and they love to wear their flags with pride.

Go be racist somewhere else and stop turning this into a race issue.

Those that shout the loudest have the most to hide and that is you.

:huh: WTF? You are off your rocker a tad, I guess supporting your country and team in public is wrong since someone who likes another team might take offence and you never want to hurt someone?s feelings:rolleyes:s: That is a load rubbish...If you don't like it fine but to say the kind of people who have flags on their cars and such are intolerant that?s is just crock...If Neowin wants to show their support they bloody well can put the flag up there, it is their site! And if people take offense then screw it people now-a-days take offense way to easily at every little th:pinch:nch:

I don't see how Neowin can 'officially' back any team because not everyone on these boards is British or supports the English team.

Neowin can do whatever the hell it wants, its not forcing you to back England, im getting sick of all this politically correct bull****. Neowin doesnt have to take into account every race and nationality in here when deciding things.

If it put up a swastika on the other hand then that would be something to complain about. They are supporting England, if you dont like it dont come here.

    • Chrome is also a first party browser on Android and ChromeOS. And on those systems, Google is pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft does on Windows.
    • Unofficial script lets you install unreleased Windows 11 features without Microsoft Account by Sayan Sen Microsoft has been steadily evolving the Windows Insider Program over the years, introducing new channels and testing paths that allow enthusiasts to experience upcoming and yet-to-be-released Windows features (some interesting hidden ones too) before they reach the public. However, one long-standing requirement has remained largely unchanged as users are generally expected to enroll in the Program and with a Microsoft account. That's where a third-party tool called "OfflineInsiderEnroll" can help. OfflineInsiderEnroll is said to be a lightweight script that enables access to Windows Insider Program builds on systems that are not signed in with a Microsoft account. Essentially the tool configures the necessary Insider settings locally and hence allows users to select and switch between available preview channels while continuing to receive builds through the normal Windows Update channel. If you are wondering how it manages to do so, it is made possible by a Registry value known as TestFlags. When configured to"0x20", Windows stops communicating with Microsoft's online Insider enrollment services thus preventing locally configured Insider settings from being overwritten. This allows the script to apply its own channel configuration directly through the Registry as Windows Update does not verify whether a device has been officially enrolled in the Insider Program or not. Previously the utility has had already supported the traditional Insider branches including Dev, Beta, and Release Preview. However following Microsoft’s recent restructuring of its preview channels, the script has now been updated. The latest OfflineInsiderEnroll version, 2.6.6, adds support for the newly introduced Insider channel lineup. As such, users can now choose from several Experimental channels in addition to Beta and Release Preview options. The update also retains tools for refreshing the Insider cache, resetting Insider settings, and completely stopping Insider enrollment when needed. Keep in mind though that will need elevated privileges when running the script (run as Admin). You can get the latest version of OfflineInsiderEnroll from this page on its official GitHub repo.
    • The "Classic" Outlook has done that for a few years as well. The option to even change that is really hidden away too... It really shouldn't be hard to respect user defaults. Sadly we are the product now, not Outlook. To change in the Classic Outlook: File > Options > Advanced > change "Open hyperlinks from Outlook in"
