I doubt Croatia can score a single goal against Germany... Our last 3 matches were crap, we barely managed to beat Moldova (1-0), had a draw against Hungary (1-1) and won only due to a penalty against Austria. :/

Strikers haven't scored since the match at Wembley, and that was in 2007 by a currently injured player. :/

Score is 1 - 0 for Croatia at half time

Well, this complicates Portugal's future games... By finishing first in the A group, we are going to play with the second in the B group. If Germany ends up being second, we'll be playing them on the quarter finals... And that is gonna be a terribly difficult one.

Indeed...

I'd rather play Croatia than Germany, too.

That result is not representing the potential of Germany AT ALL.

We played horribly for our standards...

Let's hope Austria does both of us the favor xD

See you in the semi finale :D

Schade Deutschland. I laughed my ass off during that game. It's because I'm Dutch, we've got history. :p

No but seriously. That was some terrible play from Germany. I expected that last goal by Germany, just because it's Germany. They always score one or two times in the last few minutes.

Awful behaviour from Schweinsteiger though. That was uncalled for. If you lose, you lose.. no need to force a red card.

I'm afraid the Germans will get better though.

I couldn't disagree more. The red card was totally in line with the way they want the game played. You cannot raises your hands to another player. He turned right around and shoved the Croatian right back down to the ground. Completely warranted, as far as the rules go.

Man, Austria deserves to win. The first 20 minutes were epic. Such good play. And then some bad luck later on, and the whole first half goes down the drain.

Let's see what they have up their sleeves for the second half.

I'm getting addicted to soccer, too bad I don't have a team to give my support to. :-(

Go for the Netherlands. ;) :p

    • Here is the new Surface Laptop Ultra wallpaper in high resolution

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Here is the new Surface Laptop Ultra wallpaper in high resolution by Taras Buria Earlier this week, Microsoft announced the Surface Laptop Ultra, its brand-new high-end laptop powered by NVIDIA's brand-new RTX Spark processor. As usual, Microsoft gives each new device a unique wallpaper, and the Surface Laptop Ultra is no exception. While the device is not publicly available yet, somebody has already extracted its wallpaper, giving everyone a chance to get a piece of the upcoming laptop in its full-resolution glory. The Surface Laptop Ultra has a very dark, abstract wallpaper that resembles the stock wallpapers in Windows Server, albeit with much less color. Having this dark, grim wallpaper highlights the laptop's mini-LED display and its ability to cut off parts of the screen's backlight to achieve OLED-like black levels. However, if you also like light wallpapers, we made a white version by simply inverting its colors. You can download both wallpapers below (click the image, right-click it, and select "Save as"): The Surface Laptop Ultra is expected to launch later this year. Microsoft is not revealing full details yet, including the price. However, Microsoft confirmed up to 1 petaflop of AI performance and RTX 5070-level of GPU performance. The heart of the laptop has up to 20 CPU cores and 6,144 GPU cores. Additionally, Microsoft and NVIDIA boast high CPU efficiency for all-day battery life. As for the display, it is a 15-inch mini-LED display with a pixel density of 262 ppi and a maximum brightness of 2,000 nits. Of course, not everyone needs this amount of power, and certainly not everyone can afford it. For those who need a more affordable device, Microsoft is also preparing the next-generation Surface Pro powered by the Snapdragon X2 Elite processor. Weeks ahead of the announcement, details about this computer were leaked by a retailer. Do you like the Surface Laptop Ultra's stock wallpaper? Share your thoughts in the comments.

    • Governments are ruining the internet to protect kids but there is a much better way

      By WaltC · Posted

      From all that I've read on the subject--not that much, really--it looks to me like companies and parents are trying to protect themselves from children using their parents accounts to run up giant bills, sometimes in the thousands of dollars, and the first the parents know about it is when they get sued... Internet companies have been sued for tailoring their ads to children, which is kind of old news. My belief is that policing starts at home with the parents, and the reason that so many laws that can't be enforced are being passed is because parents are eschewing their responsibilities, claiming not enough time, not enough knowledge, etc. Giving kids cell phones sans Internet connectivity is a good place to start--confine Internet activity to PCs in the home that the parents regulate. My kids are all grown and gone, I'm happy to say... They have their own kids to worry about.

    • [NEWS] Over 105000 games are available to play on Linux.

      By Case_f · Posted

      BTW DXVK is also available on Windows and offers similar benefits like on Linux when it comes to performance, at least in some titles. The Raceroom racing sim for example even offers DXVK as one of its officially supported options and it can achieve ridiculous improvements in certain situations, like quite literally doubling (or more) the framerates
