I'm liking this. Each episode has gotten a little better. The production values and overall storylines have overshadowed the many little flaws.

I like the show. I'm a bit dissapointed that a show about super heroes is focusing on a story arc about an enemy that is turning people into cyborgs though. so far they've only faced one guy that had "super"/mutant powers, and that was the first. I'm also not a big of big story arcs,

The show is NOT about super heroes. It is about people living in a world with super heroes.

It's about SHIELD. their job is to handle super heroes. 

 

either way I like it, but I Would rather have people that have xray visions that cybernetic eyes and super soldier implants.

No. The AVENGERS are the superheroes. That is a division of SHIELD. The rest of SHIELD does not involve them. Thought they made this clear in the first episode.

sigh...

 

yes, and shield's primary purpose is to do what ? that's right to police the new people that's growing dangerous super powers in the world. they cooperate with some of them to a degree with the avengers program to help take down the super villains, but they handle the lesser "mutants" and handle the prisons for pretty much all of them. 

 

a Show about shield agents, you expect them to take on some badass people, not people who's being used by a cyber doctor with control issues.

What/who told you this show was going to be about heroes? It's about the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division which is an espionage and law-enforcement agency.

To everyone who still thinks this series is going to be about super heroes, keep waiting. Before any of these episodes aired, months before the first episode even, they stated that this show wouldn't be about well established super heroes. They stated that it would be about Coulson and his group of agents handling strange new cases after what happened in New York. Yes, that also means newly discovered superhumans around the globe, but not superheroes like the Avengers, X-Men or any other Marvel Comics team.

Super heroes was the wrong term, but people with powers. I didn't expect to see the established super heroes there. but they should be capturing people with powers. 

 

and they should cut off those stupid useless rear engines on the plane, they annoy me every time I see them :p

Who says they should be capturing people with powers? S.H.I.E.L.D. means Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division so they do a whole lot more than capturing people with powers. I don't think you fully understand what S.H.I.E.L.D. does :p

I may be wrong, but I get the feeling that light and cheesy are what they are aiming for. Serious stuff almost never happens on our network TV. 

I think so too, but I think they could take it a little more seriously.  I'm enjoying the show, but it does come off as hokey from time to time...

    • 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.

      VidCoder 12.20 by Razvan Serea  VidCoder is a DVD/Blu-ray ripping and video transcoding application for Windows. It uses HandBrake as its encoding engine. Calling directly into the HandBrake library gives it a more rich UI than the official HandBrake Windows GUI. VidCoder can rip DVDs but does not defeat the CSS encryption found in most commercial DVDs. You’ll need the NET 8 Desktop Runtime. If you don’t have it, VidCoder will prompt you to download and install it. The Portable version is self-contained and does not require any .NET Runtime to be installed. You do not need to install HandBrake for VidCoder to work. Feature list: Multi-threaded MP4, MKV containers Completely integrated encoding pipeline: everything is in one process and no huge intermediate temporary files H.264, H.265, MPEG-4, MPEG-2, VP8, Theora video Hardware-accelerated encoding with AMD VCE, Nvidia NVENC and Intel QuickSync AAC, MP3, Vorbis, AC3, FLAC audio encoding and AAC/AC3/MP3/DTS/DTS-HD passthrough Target bitrate, size or quality for video 2-pass encoding Decomb, detelecine, deinterlace, rotate, reflect, chroma smooth, colorspace filters Powerful batch encoding with simultaneous encodes Customizable Pickers to automatically pick audio and subtitle tracks, destination, titles and more Instant source previews Creates small encoded preview clips Pause, resume encoding VidCoder 12.20 changes: Updated HandBrake core to 1.11.2.
