Watched the Liverpool game, and have to say Pennant is a plonker! Why he decided to do that tackle in that area is beyond me.

Either way it was pretty lackluster from the British Sides. I think Celtics away record has been pretty bad for the last few years. I remember hearing the last time they won an away match it was in the old format of the Champions League. Don't quote me on that though.

Yeah i agree. I thought the first tackle he did was a Yellow but not the 2nd which got him sent off but it was bound to get his marching orders as he was just so fierce. Refs in europe are very strict though. I thought Liverpool were not great last night which is a shame but i am sure we will be much better against Marseille in two weeks time. Still a point was a good result on the night away from home.

Especially since the start they had. A point is good, but it was crucial not to lose away from home if you have any chance of progressing.

The penalty was a bit stupid aswell. When will the refs wake up. It is acceptable in Spain and what not but we in England clamp down on it. Sort of defeats the point of clamping down on divers. It is an unfair advantage. I believe that is why England never do well in the World Cup or Euro's. Look at the Portugal game and Rooney should have went down from the tackle, instead he stayed on his feet and got send off!

I did think Reina came out and got none of the ball which why it was a penalty, but i have seen some of them not given. I mean if you want a joke of a penalty just look at the one given against Liverpool when they played Chelsea a few weeks ago.

Well if you are talking about the England team, then i have to say they are seriously overhyped. Ok we do have some good players which was english based, but as a whole England in my eyes, will not win the World Cup or the Euro Cup for along time to come. We have a collective groups on Individuals and not a team.

Liverpool where shocking last night, we just could not get going. Porto stopped us playing which is normally what we try and do to other teams, so credit to them for that. I think the penalty decision was correct, but I am starting to get annoyed at the amount of penalties we are giving away...four in eight games so far, but our record still remains that we have not conceded a goal from open play so far this season :D

1-1 away to Porto in a Champions League game is a good result though!

i agree, we gave porto the first half. pennant played a real indesciplined game. Maybe the last yellow he got wasn't deserveing but everything he did before was deserving of one. It was funny how Liverpool didnt' really pick up the offense until they were down 10 men, and Kuyt's goal was really nice :)

I saw all 94 minutes of Liverpool's game and taking away the last 5 minutes of the game, Liverpool looked abysmal, out of character, and just not motivated. Marseille was all over the ball throughout the good part of the 85 minutes and the Liverpool players were too predictable and not inspired compared to the French team.

Congrats to Marseille on a beautiful goal that honestly, they deserved.

I still am surprised that Olympiakos came back from 0-1 at the half to win 3-1.

Good day of soccer :yes:

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

      By Yogurth · Posted

      The biggest issue in this version of Win 11 context menu, from usability standpoint, is the movable row with basic commands. Think of a car analogy...if You turn the week left the infotainment screen will move right and vice versa. With how it works now Microsoft made something forbidden in designing in any UI, software or hardware. I can't grasp who were the morons within Microsoft suggesting it was a good idea and gave it a green light.
    • LibreOffice 26.2.4

      By Copernic · Posted

      LibreOffice 26.2.4 by Razvan Serea LibreOffice is the free power-packed Open Source personal productivity suite for Windows, Macintosh and Linux, that gives you six feature-rich applications for all your document production and data processing needs: Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw, Math and Base. Support and documentation is free from our large, dedicated community of users, contributors and developers. You, too, can also get involved! Choosing Between LibreOffice Still and LibreOffice Fresh: LibreOffice Still is a good choice if you value stability, a longer support cycle, and a more conservative approach to software updates. It's suitable for businesses and organizations where reliability and compatibility are crucial. LibreOffice Fresh is ideal if you're an enthusiast or an early adopter who wants to stay on the cutting edge of LibreOffice development and is willing to accept more frequent updates and occasional minor issues. Features: Writer is the word processor inside LibreOffice. Use it for everything, from dashing off a quick letter to producing an entire book with tables of contents, embedded illustrations, bibliographies and diagrams. The while-you-type auto-completion, auto-formatting and automatic spelling checking make difficult tasks easy (but are easy to disable if you prefer). Writer is powerful enough to tackle desktop publishing tasks such as creating multi-column newsletters and brochures. The only limit is your imagination. Calc tames your numbers and helps with difficult decisions when you're weighing the alternatives. Analyze your data with Calc and then use it to present your final output. Charts and analysis tools help bring transparency to your conclusions. A fully-integrated help system makes easier work of entering complex formulas. Add data from external databases such as SQL or Oracle, then sort and filter them to produce statistical analyses. Use the graphing functions to display large number of 2D and 3D graphics from 13 categories, including line, area, bar, pie, X-Y, and net - with the dozens of variations available, you're sure to find one that suits your project. Impress is the fastest and easiest way to create effective multimedia presentations. Stunning animation and sensational special effects help you convince your audience. Create presentations that look even more professional than the standard presentations you commonly see at work. Get your collegues' and bosses' attention by creating something a little bit different. Draw lets you build diagrams and sketches from scratch. A picture is worth a thousand words, so why not try something simple with box and line diagrams? Or else go further and easily build dynamic 3D illustrations and special effects. It's as simple or as powerful as you want it to be. Base is the database front-end of the LibreOffice suite. With Base, you can seamlessly integrate into your existing database structures. Based on imported and linked tables and queries from MySQL, PostgreSQL or Microsoft Access and many other data sources, you can build powerful databases containing forms, reports, views and queries. Full integration is possible with the in-built HSQL database. Math is a simple equation editor that lets you lay-out and display your mathematical, chemical, electrical or scientific equations quickly in standard written notation. Even the most-complex calculations can be understandable when displayed correctly. E=mc2. LibreOffice also comes configured with a PDF file creator, meaning you can distribute documents that you're sure can be opened and read by users of almost any computing device or operating system.

    • Ladybird Browser is no longer accepting outside contributions thanks to AI

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Ladybird Browser is no longer accepting outside contributions thanks to AI by David Uzondu The Ladybird Browser Project has announced it will no longer accept public pull requests and will limit changes to those made by its maintainers as it works towards its first alpha release. According to Ladybird's creator Andreas Kling, this is "not a change we make lightly," but the rapid shift in AI capabilities forced their hand. Previously, a massive PR implied that the person behind it put a lot of care into the code and is ready to "answer for the consequences." Now with AI, anyone can generate a PR without even understanding the bug fix or feature they want merged. The blog post goes on to say that the team is closing all open public pull requests immediately, and that maintainers will not treat external forks as a review queue for upstream Ladybird. Instead, the team wants outside contributors to focus on reporting bugs and running tests. Kling started Ladybird back in 2019 as LibHTML, a simple HTML viewer for his hobby operating system, SerenityOS, but by September 2022, it had turned into a full-fledged browser project. What sets Ladybird apart from the likes of Google Chrome, Apple Safari, or Mozilla Firefox is its totally independent engine, which does not rely on pre-existing codebases. The project maintains a strict policy against default search engine deals or user data monetization, keeping development funded entirely by donations and sponsorships. Generative AI is forcing open source project maintainers to rethink how they handle public code contributions (and the whole open-source thing in general). One month ago, a leak about the National Health Service (NHS) suggested the organization was planning to take all of its public repositories private ahead of a May 11 deadline, thanks to Mythos (an AI model that Anthropic believes is too dangerous to be released to the public) and its ability to find and write exploits for zero-day vulnerabilities. Thankfully, the Government Digital Service (GDS) issued a counter-report titled "AI, open code and vulnerability risk in the public sector" that stopped the shutdown by pointing out that hiding code does not improve security.
