I have to give it to Turkey, they didn't give up, even when Croatia scored the goal. That said, I'm also wondering where the 1.5 minutes came from since there is no such thing as extra time in extra time :blink: . The referee did everything right up until that point. Fair play to Turkey though.

Have to love the extra 2 minutes the ref gave for Turkey to tie.

Now the question is, how many players will Turkey have for Germany? 4 are suspended, Nihat got injured, and 3-4 others are injured. They may just have enough to make a team.

Looks like Germany will eat Turkey apart, unfortunately.

Alan Hansen said this at the end of extra time: "That is one of the best finishes to a game ever."

I'm actually kicking myself now for not watching the game. I only saw the last 15 minutes of the first half, the replays of both goals, and the shootout. I think those final moments from the 118th minute onwards made up for the boredom before it!

Well done to Turkey, but I'm afraid you're gonna be packing your bags in the Semi-Finals. There's no way they'll beat Germany. If they do, it'll be the luckiest bunch of gits ever! :D

OK, how fast is Alfista gonna be rushing to a computer to post on here and laugh at everyone who were backing Croatia? :laugh: I'm glad I supported the winning side (again)! :D

Oh, god... prepare your rain coats and umbrellas, fellas, Alfista is coming down on us like a thunderstorm...

What about that, hum...? From the three matches they won, they always come back from loosing... Is that luck or what...? No, don't tell me that this last goal was because they are great, because they weren't. This game was pretty bad.

It's amazing the DEUS EX MACHINA factor this team has!!

What's even more curious is that I could see myself fancing Turkey more, if not for the arrogant comments Alfista has made so far, and absolutely will continue on making...

They still play injury time - if there was any - I don't know I didn't watch the game, only caught the equaliser and penalties.

Its more BS that he blew the whistle on the SECOND for the 1st extra time... and 2 minutes 12 seconds later for the 2nd extra time, when the only injury was Nihat walking off the field(that took literally 12 seconds).

I've always fancied Turkey since their 3rd place finish in the World Cup but I agree, Alfista's arrogance has made me go against Turkey this tournament, though I wouldn't mind them beating Germany. However, I highly that will happen with half the starters and team suspended and injured.

Actually, if you take a look at the clock, he whistled it half time when it was 14 minutes and 57 seconds gone, which means he whistled it a few seconds too early. Then, in the second half, he whistles it 2 minutes past the time he was suppose to.

Croatia scored before the 119th minutes and their celebrations lasted about a minute (being generous here). That means the game was suppose to end around the 121st, but it ended past the 122nd, which is why the Croatian coach was upset with the ref for allowing such thing.

Nonetheless, congrats to the Turks. They tied it and won it, though I do not know how they can manage to put a team together against Germany with all those main players missing.

Germany will be playing half a bench team, which means Germany will sail to the finals where they do not deserve to be, in my opinion.

    • OpenAI is now rolling out Lockdown Mode to more ChatGPT users

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      OpenAI is now rolling out Lockdown Mode to more ChatGPT users by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in February, OpenAI first announced Lockdown Mode for users who want the most comprehensive protection from potential attacks. At the time of the announcement, the company mentioned that this feature was available to a small set of highly security-conscious users, including executives or security teams at leading organizations. Today, OpenAI announced that Lockdown Mode is now rolling out to all personal ChatGPT accounts, including Free, Go, Plus, and Pro, and also self-serve ChatGPT Business accounts. Users can enable the feature from ChatGPT Settings > Security when it is available for their account. When Lockdown Mode is enabled, ChatGPT limits or disables several features that connect to the web or external services. These include live web browsing, Deep Research, Agent Mode, and more. Here is the complete list of services that will be disabled in Lockdown Mode: Live web browsing: Web browsing is limited to accessing only cached content. Search results may be limited, unavailable, or stale. Image support: ChatGPT may not display images in regular responses or retrieve images from the web. Users can still upload image files, and image generation remains available where it is otherwise available. Deep research: Deep research is disabled. Agent mode: Agent mode is disabled. Canvas networking: Users cannot approve Canvas-generated code to access the network. File downloads: ChatGPT cannot download files for data analysis. ChatGPT can still operate on your manually uploaded files. It is important to note that Lockdown Mode does not completely block prompt injections from appearing in content that ChatGPT processes. For example, a malicious instruction could still be present in an uploaded file or cached web content. However, the mode is designed to reduce the ways such an attack could send sensitive information outside the conversation. Along with Lockdown Mode, OpenAI today also announced that the Active sessions feature is now available across ChatGPT accounts and workspace types. This feature allows users to review where their account is signed in across devices and end sessions if required. A session will have the following information displayed: Device or browser information. First-party app context, such as ChatGPT, Codex, or API Platform. Approximate location. Sign-in date and time. Whether the device is a trusted device. Whether it is your current session. OpenAI highlighted that the Active sessions feature will not be available for accounts linked to an organization’s single sign-on setup, including SAML or OIDC.
