Nope. They're hosted on Azure, which is suffering downtime at the moment

AWS then Azure.... when will it be Google's turn...

You know that Azure is a cloud platform not an operating system right?

Of course I know, but any cloud platform will need servers to operate right ? could platform don't live in the sky like flat earth people might suggest... plus, it's been used for really wrong things, like targeting people in Gaza. The scandal inflated, then Microsfot did even "better" by blocking the Israel's use of Azur systems for mass surveillance. Microsoft is completely rigged.

OVH's still fine here for TTD, sorry americans, it's french tech. And it works. That's why you're using french Thales products for the F22 pilots helmets upgrade.

Beyond equipping Hawaii-based F-22s, Thales' Scorpion will now be standard on all F-16s in the USAF's fleet.

Whatever happens, Lily is playing out of her freakin mind.

 

[joshmak10]

Well played Lily. Maybe just a bit of nervousness crept in near the end, plus Chen Yi with some smart plays. It’s tough but she will learn and build on this match and she will improve that endgame mentality game soon

Not nerves, all tactics. In game 5 Chen Yi smartly abandoned playing to the backhand half at all, when you force it into the middle straight away you know Lily will play move to play BH every time and when the middle moves, her inside forehand gets jammed and becomes very unreliable. Chen Yi figured out a way to exploit it. Well played on both sides though.

Kanak takes down Hugo. Brilliant performance from the American

 

[v100ev]

I somehow have a feeling that Hugo's FH rubber let him down.

 

[Nakira]

Incredible match from Khanak! Well done! Especially, with most of the local crowd for Hugo.

 

[TampaBayTableTennis]

absolutely amazing win for Kanak!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Metaxa]

Hugo let it slip. It could have been 3-0. But that doesn't detract from Kanak's performance with a rock-solid BH block/counter.

Most surprising result of the year for me.

I do agree, but I also felt like lily played a bit more passive on receive near the end and nerves played its part, but smart play by chen nonetheless

why are Wang Chuqin and Lin Shidong not competing? Pretty much every top player is there besides them

Yes. I was thinking about more recently since AWS was last week lol.

Same reaction on Odo over at Tieba. The 2025 Zeng Jian has a fair chance of preventing that from happening, though.

Zeng Jian beats Odo.
Can Hashimoto go all the way now? Likely WYD or Miwa in the semis.

Japan had 5 players this time in a SYS/WMY tournament and 3 of them have exited in the first round lol. Miwa also drew YJN who can upset anyone on her day.
