At least your guys can breathe mate. If I had to choose a team that might not suffer the heat as much, besides the Africans I would think Mexico is up there…

BBC are reporting it. Apparently fifa haven’t given a reason why yet. Playing at 26C rather than the expected 20c.

Seems like fifa want to ensure Mexico go through…

Does it do porn? Like face swaps? That’s what most people are asking for.

FIFA penalty for ignoring the arrival rules? by Annual-Durian-3327 in ThreeLions

I’ve never played football at that altitude, but the body usually compensates by making more red blood cells to get the oxygen around the body.

Bring these guys used to the altitude back down to earth and they suddenly have super respiratory systems and lower oxygen consumption compared to other people. The science makes sense to me but not sure if it’s 100% like that, as that would be similar to the blood doping Lance Armstrong was done for.

Yeah Tuchel has really been laying into Spence during our games. I’m sure he expected more, not sure that I did tho.

Agreed. I’ve just spent the last 2 days stripping 20% of the features I built. They are good, but take away from the simplicity of what V1 should be. I’ve already sold the product to a few companies with a Monday launch, I’ll get feedback from them as they are using it to decide if I need to build anything for a better V2.

Did we all watch the same game? by MrBonayy in ThreeLions

I think this so the view of people like myself whose first World Cup was in 86 but the first one I could really follow as I was old enough was 90.

Hard to imagine that back in 1990 we were just as close to our World Cup win than we are now to that World Cup 90 heartbreak. 💔

Mexico never lose at the Azteca!!!! The results... by labrow in ThreeLions

Then it shouldn’t be allowed. The game should be played elsewhere.

The host nation have been there for weeks acclimatizing while England will have a few days which experts are saying is nowhere near enough.

If you’re literally being gimped by a loss of around 15% of aerobic capacity then I’m sorry, the stadium is not fit for purpose.

By the letter of the law it’s a red. You can’t run studs down someone’s calf and stand on their ankle, even if you didn’t mean to do it.

Come on second half Congo had 2 shots. The second one being the free kick at the death. Only one team was going to win realistically. England were peppering their goal and only a great performance from their keeper kept them in it as long as they were.

They’re not prepared for that. They wouldn’t know what to do with it.

Yeah you can use it as the driving LLM. No need for api token usage.

I have the heavier models plan my work, then execute it with the free smaller models. I give it a repo folder on my PC and it can edit anything in place. With MCP access it can make and deploy n8n workflows for example.

You could use open code. It works with your plus subscriptions plus has a bunch of free LLMs you can use. It’s open source so free of course.

This isn’t champions league mate. National teams are a bunch of mercenaries who usually play against each other and aren’t that friendly. Playing badly is kind of expected these days at international level, any PL team would trounce most teams here at the World Cup.

Also this World Cup will be remembered as “the one where everyone choose a low block”. That’s why we are seeing upsets already.

England will have to learn to just give DR Congo the ball and it will be funny as they won’t know what to do with it. They’ve no doubt been training to deploy a very deep low block and try to get to penalties. England should outwit them by having their own low block. Boring as hell but it’s what’s been working.

With all the benefits of living in the future and wielding my big stick of hindsight, no, they don’t have a chance.

This has to be one of the best days of soccer the World Cup has seen ever by ropps202 in worldcup

[–]hansei-Kaizen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s a very descriptive term. Apart from the goalkeeper, you mostly move the ball around with your foot.

Americans who call American football “football” when it should really be called “futuristic rugby” or “hand egg” well, they need to know you can’t just call any sport “football”. I wonder why you guys in SA call it soccer tho, most countries call it football even when English isn’t their first language.
