With Dr. House starting off season 8 in prison, Fox’s new key art for the show has Hugh Laurie rockin’ the orange jumpsuit while his fellow inmates get busy busting desert rocks. House returns to Monday nights starting Oct. 3.

So he's had a (long running) drug problem and was even in rehab and is now spending time in prison. HOW does a character like this maintain a medical license??? At some point I don't think you can realistically call it "House, M.D." anymore.

I'll still watch it though. :)

he had it revoked multiple times,, he was kept on at the hospital as a non practicing consultant or something, on a couple of occasions.

I have a feeling this season will be like when he was in rehab, a few episodes in the slammer then he's out being an MD somehow again. I dunno, I miss Season 3-4 House.

i have a feeling hes goign to be an unofficial MD in the slammer, shows him beign pushed around and crap in that short, more then likely he will fix some prisoner, then all the inmates will be all " OMG " and then be his friend cause he can either A: get them out ( transfered to lower sec prison ) easy by making up some rare disease, or fix them from all the behind the bars type action

They're really going in circles with the "drug issue-House collapsing--rehab-House finds his human side--House realizes he's too miserable--House collapses" thing, but hey, it's not like this show has great writing, without Laurie and the character of House it would be Grey's Anatomy meets CSI. Not sure if I'll be keeping up with this season, though, kinda bored of it.

What are you talking about? That is what real people go through every day with drug addictions. There are people that stay like that for their whole lives. They can 'milk' it all they want and it would still be realistic imo.

This show is anything but realistic.

So the first episode of the season leaked onto the Interwebz. The episode is great and a bit different than what you would have come to expect from House. The different environment and the constant danger (to House) is great and makes for a great tv.

But the best part of the episode was Odette Annable. I was a disappointed when they lost Olivia Wilde, but Odette is a FINE replacement.

I did not see her listed for the 8th season and with the addition of Odette, I naturally assumed that she was gone. You mean to tell me that Olivia and Odette will both be on House at the same time? Impossible!!!!!111! Too much hotness in one place. The universe would implode.

      "just $100 per TB"? Just? Are we trying to make this seem like the new normal? Kinda weird to make it sound like that is not a ridiculously expensive asking price.

      The reviews you refer to mean nothing. Where there is no journalism there is no reason to call the gaming media's opinion pieces "reviews". For GP games there is indeed a metric for success - increasing subscriptions. Which turns in revenue. The only circumstance in which subs do not rise when great is being released is a Game Pass system where the company is close to fully saturated with customers in a subscription. However, in that case as the theory goes you spend aplenty in all kind of games - from shady live service cash cows and customer offending agitprop crap in purple colours to robust and entertaining single player games. And keep a solid level of profitability. Ignoring the simply innocuous but mid games MGS has released primarily of the second kind.
    • Report: Microsoft to use AWS to help GitHub deal with a major surge in demand

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Report: Microsoft to use AWS to help GitHub deal with a major surge in demand by Pradeep Viswanathan Thanks to the surge of coding AI agents, GitHub's usage has skyrocketed over the past 12 months. To meet this demand, GitHub started with a plan in October 2025 to increase capacity by 10x. However, by early this year, the company realized that it needed 30x scale. This rapid growth has caused severe strain on the platform's reliability, resulting in several small outages over the past few months. In April, GitHub published a long blog post explaining the steps it is taking to resolve these reliability issues. In the post, the company also confirmed that it is working toward a multi-cloud architecture for better resilience. Today, Business Insider reported that GitHub is turning to Amazon Web Services to help deal with a major surge in AI-driven coding activity. It is important to note that GitHub is still in the process of moving completely to the Azure cloud. The current plan is to move the platform fully to Azure by 2027 so that it can scale better as per developer demand. Therefore, the current decision to utilize AWS might be part of a short-term plan to meet immediate demand. A Microsoft spokesperson confirmed that GitHub is using multiple cloud providers with the following statement: For Microsoft, the decision highlights the operational pressure behind the AI boom. GitHub has to stay reliable for developers at a time when rivals such as Codex, Cursor, Claude Code, and other AI coding tools are gaining attention. And the decision to use AWS for computing capacity seems practical given the circumstances.
