It was a great game. It seemed like Federer was getting tired, and the darkness made it very hard to see the ball. Very difficult conditions, so both players deserve immense respect for producing such an amazing game.

Well done to Nadal - he's wanted it for a long time. Federer has proven to those that wrote him off early that he's still got it in him to take the game down to the wire. It was a very even game.

+1 It probably should have been over sooner every time he got into a bit of trouble Federer kept producing the big serves again and again. Around 25 aces.

Find myself really feeling proud of Nadal. Classic match and some good words afterwards from both of them.

Anyway im off to bed till mid afternoon :p. 6:30am local time. Luckily i've got nothing to do today. :D

Federer has a bigger and better challenge than some stupid record now - beat Nadal next year. :) I always think more of sportsmen who win in a tight fight, than those who just run away with it so easily. The first shows triumph over the competition, the other shows the lack of a proper adversary.

Best Final @ Wimbledon ever, an awesome display of power and skill, a joy to watch. Well done the new leader of the pack - NADAL - !!

Federer, as good as he is, simply could not find anything to beat someone who was determined as he was on that day, but the 'new guard' is now here. Sampras made way for Federer, now Federer for Nadal.

A good year for the Spanish, Tennis and Euro 2008......awesome!!

Well done.

Not to say Nadal winning wasn't great and all, because it was. But I wouldn't call him the leader of the pack quite yet. Federer should still be ranked #1 even after losing (at least, I'm pretty sure) because of his incredible record so far this year. Now we'll see what happens at the US Open :)

Quite simple it was one of the best tennis matches ever! Comparable to the epics between Borg and McEnroe. Nobody deserved to lose yesterday. The way Federer came back after being 2 sets down was unbelievable. And Nadal's stamina, his running around the baseline to retrieve and hit winners was something else altogether.

I agree there, Nadal is not even close to his clay and grass qualities on hard court, in fact I don't remember him even reaching a final at either the US Open or Australian Open.

Federer is still best on grass and hard court, he has many qualities that Nadal will never match because they very diffrent players.

The only one right now who has the diverse range of qualities like Federer is Djokovic but he just doesnt have the iron will and mental strength to match Nadal or Federer.

I'm glad Rafa won. It's time for a new champion.

Yup, agreed. Federer really ****es me off now. Can't stand the guy. So glad Raffa beat him and took the title. Well deserved. Plus he looks better in a pair of shorts and a sleeveless LOL. :p

It was a great match, good to see Federer come back into it. I think if it wasn't for the 1st rain interruption, Nadal might have won it in straight set. The way it turned out made for a much better match. Nadal deserved to win it though, he was better on the day. If he could improve his service game to match Federer's he'd be a much more fearsome opponent.

i must say that i was really crushed seeing the guy i cheered and supported for about 4 years now gets beaten on his court, the grass court, just when he was about to break a Wimbledon record. federer played his worst tennis this year, still he has been one of the best men to ever hold a tennis racket. federer chances in the the hard court season are slim because it will probably be the djokovic season, and that's it. i must say that we could be witnessing the end of roger federer's reign probably after the end of this year.

Roger Federer = tennis history

    • 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.
