"someone"? That someone is Joss Whedon who made the Avengers. He also made Dollhouse, Firefly, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel and he's currently working on Avengers 2. So yeah, he's not just someone who's trying to make a buck from a Marvel series (not sure what you mean by that since this is an original show and not based off of any comic book or whatever), lol :p

According to TV Line, David Conrad (Ghost Whisperer, CSI: Miami) has landed a recurring role in ABC's highly anticipated television series Marvel's Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D., which premieres Tuesday, September 24th at 8 PM EST. As expected, details on his role are being kept under lock and key, and we don't know which episode will be his debut on the show. But the site adds, "the show has been casting the role of a brilliant and quirky scientist that matches Conrad?s description (i.e., male in his 40s)."

A character named Michael Peterson (in the comics a friend of Slapstick) will be a focus in the pilot after he acquires powers via the Extremis virus. He will be played by J. August Richards.

EW report that Ian Hart will be joining Marvel's Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D in a recurring role. The site don't reveal which character he'll play, but do say that he will be a scientist -- while also divulging a little more info on the show's apparent "unwritten rule": "All super-powers introduced on the show must be explained by science ? not magic or supernatural forces." That narrows down any cameos from certain Marvel characters fans might have been expecting to see! Hart will be best know to Harry Potter fans as Professor Quirrel, but he is a veteran of British and Irish film and television, and has most recently appeared on US screen in the likes of A&E?s Bates Motel, HBO?s Luck, and FX?s Dirt.

^I'm betting life model decoy. The blood made it pretty clear that it was a living thing :p I also don't think the latter could keep someone from dying after such a devastating shot.

    • Microsoft finally admits its default Windows 11 25H2, 24H2 action broke key legacy component

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Microsoft finally admits its default Windows 11 25H2, 24H2 action broke key legacy component by Sayan Sen Microsoft last week released Windows 11 KB5094126 and KB5093998 as the latest Patch Tuesday updates. Following that the company also published the accompanying dynamic updates under KB5094149, KB5095971, and KB5094156. So far the company has acknowledged two known issues that have popped up after the release which include bugged-out Office apps as well as the Recycle Bin; though there could be more at play too. Speaking of bugs and issues, Microsoft seems to have finally acknowledged a problem that probably has been around for close to a year. That's because back in July of 2025 the company made a default change to the latest Windows 11 versions, wherein it switched to JScript9Legacy on Windows 11 24H2 and later releases. Hence following the release of version 25H2 in October 2025, JScript9Legacy also remained default-enabled. As a result there has been a compatibility issue ever since then. For those wondering, by switching to JScript9Legacy Microsoft intended to improve the security of modern Windows PCs by reducing vulnerabilities tied to legacy scripting like cross-site scripting (XSS), among others. XSS exploits can allow cyber-attackers to attach malicious code onto legitimate websites and use them to execute the code when a potential victim loads such a website. Hence the new JScript9Legacy engine enforced stricter execution policies and improved object handling, which should help mitigate such attacks. Microsoft today has published a new support article detailing the problem. Neowin spotted it while browsing. The company says that JScript global definitions and execution context may fail to persist across scripts, potentially breaking older dependent apps and web-based components that relied on this legacy behavior. In the article Microsoft has confirmed that the issue stems from its move away from the older jscript9.dll engine in favor of jscript9legacy.dll. As mentioned above, while the newer engine was designed to address vulnerabilities and strengthen security it also changes how JScript handles execution context. As a result functions and definitions loaded by one script could no longer remain available to subsequent scripts once execution ended. The company notes that some applications worked correctly on earlier Windows versions because the older JScript engine automatically retained global definitions and execution state between scripts. Under the newer model though that behavior is disabled by default causing certain legacy workloads and polyfill-dependent scripts to fail. Microsoft says it addressed the problem via the KB5077241 update though the fix had not been enabled automatically in the following updates. As such admins must explicitly turn on persistent JScript execution context using a Registry setting that the tech giant shared today. The configuration can be applied to individual processes or system-wide through the FEATURE_ENABLE_PERSISTENCE registry key. The steps have been outlined below: Run the following command to create the feature control registry key: reg add "HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_ENABLE_PERSISTENCE" Under this key, create a new DWORD (32-bit) value. Configure the value as follows: To enable persistence for specific processes only: Set the value to 1 for each target process name. To enable persistence for all processes: Add * as the key name and set its value to 1. You can find the official support article here on Microsoft's website.
