Off topic but what does 9/8c mean with regards to time on US tv, i've worked out it's on at 9pm, but whats the /8c all about?

The continental US has 4 time zones.  The two important ones being Eastern and Central, so that's how all the times are advertised since those are televised together.  We also have Mountain time (not many people there) and West coast time.  West coast gets its own starting time since it's 3 hours behind so it's not used for any advertised national times.

8 Central.  Time-zone thing.

On Topic:

I missed the first like 30 seconds of the show (was watching big brother), was confused as fk at the first scene.  I was worried I missed something crazy. I started watching at the part where he gets out of the car and goes through the trunk looking for tools.

I saw the opening credits and breathed a sigh of relief when it went back to carry on where the story left off.

 

Definitely looks to be an amazing second half.

It's the same in Canada.  Shows get advertised with Eastern and Central timing.

Sorry I assume anyone reading or posting in this topic has been keeping up on the episodes.

I for one stay out until I watch the episode of the week. This pertains to any tv show thread

Bravo! Really hate it when people that complain about you discussing an aired episode and have the audacity to have a go at you for not using spoiler tags if they have a total lack of common sense and decide to enter a thread about a tv show where they haven't watched the latest episode... Hang on guys i've not seen this episode, don't talk about it until i've seen it, because I am the most important person in the word.

Go at him? I said please.... it wasn't even for me, it was for everyone else.

 

Just because you don't visit this thread before watching the episode doesn't mean everyone else does or should. Don't be so ironically inconsiderate and outright ignorant.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      By The Werewolf · Posted

      The flaw with this analysis is that this laptop has a cellphone CPU in it. In the Intel world, that would be an N150 and those are everywhere, even in low end laptops. You can get an N150 based NUC with 16GB RAM and 256GB-512GB SSD... NOT soldered in... for < $500 Canadian (around US$360). The problem is two fold: tech bloggers/writers on most tech site (like this one, ironically) overvalue Apple and apparently aren't in the same earnings class as most regular people. As a result, we get breathless articles about how everyone needs a folding phone when most people just cannot afford one... or really need one. And we get Apple used as the baseline metric regardless of whether that comparison makes any sense. If Dell or HP released a retail laptop with a cellphone motherboard, you'd be all over them for doing that - but Apple does it and it's genius. I see articles suggesting what Samsung - a company that basically started the foldable phone market and has built them for eight years - needs to do to compete with Apple's unreleased, unspecced and unseen folding phone. Sorry, no - if the Neo (really creative name there BTW - still, better than the Go, the other "creative" product name everyone's using) encourages PC makers to make cellphone laptops using lower end ARM processors, we all lose. It's a step backwards and a capitulation to the fact that semiconductor makers and computer OEMs (and tech bloggers) have totally lost the plot.

      Steam Next Fest returns with thousands of new demos to try out by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Valve has been routinely kicking off demo festivals on Steam for years now, and the second drop of 2026 has just opened its doors. It's a great opportunity for any PC gamers to find some interesting games before they release. The June edition of Steam Next Fest is a week-long digital festival including gameplay slices from a large number of indie developers, though a few major publishers are involved this time too. Interested players can use the Next Fest hub page's various sorting and filtering options to easily sort through the hordes of demos available. The top buttons offer quick access to separate and important sorting options, including "By Genre, By Theme, By Feature," with each one offering more granular settings when clicked. At the same time, the built-in Steam tags system is also available below every page to discover new games more quickly. As always, logging in will also enable Steam gamers to utilize Valve's recommendation algorithms to find game demos they might like, specifically, depending on their past play and purchase histories. This time there is even a toggle now to swap between getting a random and personalized selection as Valve collects more data on the available demos. The Charts section is where you can find the most popular demos on the platform right now, offering up the most hyped titles in a simple list. Right at the kickoff, Mistfall Hunter, Empulse, Echoes of Aincrad, Onimusha: Way of the Sword, Over the Hill, Mortal Shell II, and more are trending. Expect this list to change as the week progresses. This edition of the Steam Next Fest is slated to end on June 22 at 10 AM PT. Valve's latest event is now open, and it can be accessed by going to the dedicated hub page here.
