Sorry but this title is reserved for Cech. He just had a bad hair day.

:laugh:

Forgetting his absolute calamity against Turkey, Cech is no where near to being the best goalkeeper in the world.

Casillas and Boruc are both better than Cech as well in my opinion, and it is really only between Buffon and Casillas for the top spot.

Pepe Reina is also a much better keeper than him, and Reina's three golden glove awards out of three seasons in the Premier League are testament to that.

To be honest, I thought Cech was brilliant, but after he fractured his skull he didn't seem to be the same goalkeeper in my eyes.

I agree with you Marty, for once ;)

Ever since that devastating injury he sustained, he hasn't been as good as he was before. Don't get me wrong, Cech is still very good but he is not consistent throughout games. He will make 2-3 spectacular saves in a game but will be mediocre in another game or even awful in the same game where he made those 3 great saves as we witnessed a few days ago.

Boruc, by far, has been the best keeper in this tournament. Yes, Poland did not win once, but he kept them in every game they played in with some spectacular saves that were certain goals.

Buffon's only moment was that penalty kick save and it happens to be the reason why Italy is through.

The good news, at least for me and all Portuguese fans, is that Podolski and Frings will miss the game on Thursday. Of course I do not wish them to be injured but their injury makes it slightly easier for us considering Podolski is a force to contend with in that German midfield.

I forgot to mention he has scored all the goals for Germany thus far.

To be honest, I really like Croatia to at least reach the final. They have always been my favourite team ever since they've played in the 98 World Cup, so hopefully they rise up to the challenge as dark horses.

If only the rest of the world could read that. :p

Anyhow, boring match by The Netherlands yesterday. Wasn't really interested. Cool that they won again though, even with a B-team. Let's see who they're up against in the quarter finals. It's going to be an exciting match whatsoever.

Now, don't do that! Make up something else, something less dangerous. I'm sure a lot of neowinians here can help you in the quest for your decent punishment. :)

    • 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.
