it was a fantastic race... pedrosa taking out hayden was priceless but overall the rider with most victories deserves the title at the end of the day and Rossi has 5 + so many DNF's

Hayden's record of winning races is not very good, hes great at Laguna his home race and the other race he won the Dutch TT Edwards handed that to him. On top of all that Pedrosa gonna have to help him and i can't see it coming together for hayden unless Rossi goes out of the race.

Heres a vid of the race if anyone has not seen it yet

why rossi deserves the title:

notice how edwards actually HELPED rossi, trying to slow the rest of the pack. it's called teamwork. notice how pedrosa "helped" hayden, yeah, some teamwork there. not rippin' on hayden, but the only reason he's that far up is due to a very consistent podium, however very few WINS. he's steady for sure, but not great. rossi is, especially when he doesn't blow his motor, a damn fine racer. i can't wait to see who ends up on top.

and yeah, elias, wow, that man can slide a bike.

Well, I'm a huggggeee Nicky Hayden fan so I'm always going to be biased. But I have to give credit to Valentino, that guy is a freakin beast.

I think Nicky can pull it out. But of course I'm going to think that! Should be a great battle.

If Nicky is gonna be world champion, this is gonna be the best chance he will ever get.

this race can not come soon enough!

I can't believe what puig said about hayden. Watch the video, you can clearly see the pedrosa getting out of shape way before the corner.

maybe as Dani also has 2 race wins to his name hes so ****ed about that injury thats took him out of the championship race :shifty:

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By +samw61 · Posted

      I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.

      I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.

      The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.

      I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
