"Liverpool reclaim summit but fall short of peak form" is the headline in the Independent today. Sums it up really..

It was a dull game.. Liverpool missed Torres as much as Chelsea missed Drogba.. but still they drew atleast.. there was a scare in the last minutes but Boa Morte missed an easy goal scoring opportunity..

Good for us lot though.. difference from top of table is still in single figures :p

Typical Chelsea fan?

I've watched every single Liverpool game this season, and even been to a few of them.

Unfortunately I've been busy with work/school. Living an ocean away doesn't help either, we are very limited as to what games we get on tv.

Typical liverpool fan being a tool.

Arsenal slipped up last night against Burnley, its a really open cup now especially if Utd go out.

At least they beat Chelsea in the league, even if it was thanks to the referee :blush:

Since Arsenal probably can't win this year I'm hoping for a 'Pool win, I really don't like Chelsea and ManU.

We only get like 2 Premier League games a week on TV here, but internet is a wonderful thing :D

yeah man, its hard watching games this side of the water, especially when you are right beside the pacific ocean, and not the atlantic. You think its hard for greg, it's even harder for me. Some times i just can't do it (like i didn't catch this weeks game), because the game is at 4 AM and i have class in the morning... Champions league games are fine, 1130 AM usually Pacific time and i NEVER miss those ones. But EPL games are a huge effort.

Liverpool escape censure over Shields support

The Football Association will not take any formal action against Liverpool after their players wore T-shirts carrying a message of support for a fan who was jailed for the attempted murder of a Bulgarian waiter in 2005.

Shields' parents formed part of the pre-match demonstration.

Liverpool players wore the T-shirts in the warm-up for the Premier League match against West Ham on Monday.

Michael Shields was sentenced to 15 years in prison after being convicted of the attempted murder of Martin Georgiev in Bulgaria on a holiday taken after seeing his side win the Champions League final in Istanbul.

Liverpool's players were seen wearing 'Free Michael now' T-shirts while warming up ahead of Monday's televised 0-0 draw with West Ham at Anfield and Brookside actress Sue Johnston was invited on to the pitch with Shields' parents to make a speech calling for British justice secretary, Jack Straw, to "do the right thing".

Despite another man confessing to the attack, Shields was locked up and his sentence was reduced to 10 years on appeal. He was transferred to the UK to serve the remainder of his sentence, but his supporters have never halted their campaign to prove his innocence.

Another Liverpool fan admitted being responsible for the crime before later retracting his confession and Shields' case will go before a high court review on Thursday.

An FA spokesman said: "We have spoken to Liverpool Football Club about this matter. We understand that Michael Shields' case is a very emotive issue and one that many Liverpool players and fans feel strongly about.

"Having heard the club's explanation we will not be taking any formal action, and we are satisfied that they understand the sensitivities around football matches being used as a platform for political messages.''

LET HIM GO!!!

Yup, I'm a tool for watching my team and going to the games, and you of course are not a tool because you haven't watched one Chelsea game this season. Makes sense.

I called you a tool because of your remarks. I've been to many sporting events of teams that I support this year, US Football, Hockey, College Soccer, College Basketball, etc... Hell, I haven't missed a Tampa Bay Lightning game this year because I work for them....I watched a few preseason games from the epl but we only get 2 Chelsea games on tv a season. However, I am a true blue member so I am supporting my team in that sense. Would you pay 120$ a year for a team that you live over 4410 miles from?

The shed is calling you back my friend...

Edit: Its really 4,400 miles not 4,000!

Just got back from CC game vs Watford. Comfortable Spurs win in the end, although Watford took their goal well and looked good in the first 15 of each half.

Incredible singing though in the second half HARRY REDKNAPPS, BLUEANDWHITE ARMY! YIDS! Spurs are on their way to Wembley.

    • 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.
    • Nearly 70% of Steam users now run Windows 11

      with LSTC and ESU, moving to w11 or linux because w10 suddenly will not work when in reality it works and its a better choice, of course there are also developers that only test in 11 or force you to have TPM and Secure boot for the sake of "better security" in games. or most likely people is buying new PC that only ship with 11

    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original

      Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.

      Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.
