That was an extremely weird finish. I in no way see how Arlovski got knocked out. that punch had little power to it, as show by the way his head barely moved. And I've never seen his chin be weak. Meh.

I think he hit him pretty squarely. I was wondering what he thought he was going to do with that flying knee.

Well, Fedor won again heh

Some people may not agree with that, but he did exactly what he said in the beginning of that fight, on how he never really has a plan for each fighter: He finds weaknesses and exploits them. That's exactly what he did, why did Arlovski jump with his face wide open? He had it but he lost patience and became over confident, probably "OMGOMG I'm confusing Fedor this is amazing. Maybe I should go in quicker!". Guess not

Lindland got KO cold, and every time Tito talked it ruined the atmosphere.

That was no light punch, he hit him squarely it just didn't look like it.

It's also tough to see someone get knocked out like Linland did, his leg twitching was too much :s

Tito is just annoying and his voice is annoying...everytime he loses I laugh.

i could not agree more..lol

I think his commentating, specifically when he was in the ring with the fighters was just HORRIBLE. He kept stumbling over his words, saying stuff that didn't make sense, it was extremely annoying. About the Fedor fight, i was really thinking Arlovski had a good chance at this, even before the fight started, he just got too confident. And yes, if you watch the slow motion replay, he certainly connected..lol

I say it's official, Tito is the John Madden of MMA. "YES! VERY EQUAL FIGHT. LOTS OF EXCHANGE OF PUNCHES AND KICKS AND THROWS ON BOTH SIDES. IT'S VERY COMPETITIVE".

He's lucky his gf is Jenna Jameson :pinch:

Although some hype of Fedor has gone down for me. Up until the lucky punch, Arlovski was threatening him.

And he thought he could threaten him some more by jumping on him. He said it later himself, saying why did he took that strategy of the flying knee.

That's not Andrei Arlovski! It's Andrey Orlovsky! :laugh:

The guy is Belorussian so often times they "misspell" Russian "O" for "A" ;) (молоко vs малако)

and...Fedor owns!

    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval by David Uzondu Image via @realDonalTrump (X) As OpenAI prepares the release of its next model, GPT 5.6, the White House has instructed the company to limit the distribution of the software to a small group of government-approved partners instead of the general public, as it has done with previous releases. According to The Information, OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman sent an internal memo to staff on Thursday explaining that the federal government will approve access "customer by customer" during an initial preview phase. Altman noted in the communication that this restrictive rollout is "not [their] long-term model" for software deployment, and the company plans to work toward a "more sustainable" distribution method later. CNN said that both OpenAI and the Trump administration view the capabilities of GPT 5.6 on the same level as Anthropic's Mythos and that government officials intend to "collaborate with frontier AI labs to develop shared approaches for addressing the challenges of scaling this technology." The latest restriction comes just weeks after the US Commerce Department decided to restrict Fable, a version of Mythos with extra safety "guardrails" to prevent users from exploiting software vulnerabilities. Not long after the release, though, researchers at Amazon found a way to bypass these restrictions, prompting an aggressive response from federal authorities. The government ordered Anthropic to cut off access for non-US citizens located outside the US, non-US citizens living inside the US, and incredibly, even Anthropic's own foreign-born employees. Anthropic now appears to be building a workaround to resolve this compliance block with an update to its Privacy Policy that introduces a category called "Verification Data" to handle KYC and Digital IDs. This setup could mandate digital identity checks to filter users by nationality, requiring a government-issued ID and facial biometric data. Who knows? Maybe in the future, you would have to scan your US Passport or State ID to prove your citizenship before you are allowed to chat with Fable 5 (or any other model).
    • PowerToys is getting a new window management utility

      By matthiew · Posted

      When Windows 7 was released I created an AutoHotkey script that uses Alt+` as a keyboard shortcut to move a window across monitors. I have been using that script for over 15 years and this is the first time I have come across another app that uses the same shortcut!

    • Windows 10 quietly gets one more year of support and updates

      By matthiew · Posted

      I called it last year that they wouldn't end support when they said there would. There are too many people still on Windows 10 waiting for something better to upgrade to and 11 ain't it! The recent promises of fixing Windows 11's many problems is nice, but unless they deliver on those promises in a big way then I expect customers will still want to stick with 10.

      Full ACK. I went too far adressing your post specifically. And as you said, it up to us customers as participant of the market dynamic as it happens to decide whether we spend our money on a product or not. The responsibility is to the company. In case of this price hike one could assume that MS is expecting or even starting to see a new interest in XBox hardware so they want to avoid losses per unit sold. I find it fair enough that they granted a period in which everyone interested could grab a unit for the current price (Amazon.de has a reliable stock of XBox Series X digital, which I bought last December after having sold my day one Series X a year ago). It is not that they cash up their customers starting on Monday. Cheers and let's cling to our perfectly fine hardware as long as we deem it worthy in relation to purchasing something new!
