Think that was one of the only good episodes there has been.

 

Meh, clearly there's two audiences and apparently the biggest share are expecting Hulk v Wolverine. I expect more humans in S.H.I.E.L.D. I never like Nick and his crew for that reason when I was a kid reading comics. But as an adult, I kind of like it and like the cheesy Saturday morning thing much less.

 

The preview for the  next episode looks like the Beginning of the End to me. Two women going at it in cheesy wonder woman costumes totally out of place with the other characters and environments. It's over. But maybe not, I assume that's what the over-the-top comic till ya drop crowd has been clamoring for. The guy in the tank, I can live with that but that would be CGI. Wonder woman reborn and more cheesy costumes (the reason comics are difficult to translate to the big screen well), I'm not feelin' it.

I still think this show has alot to offer, yes it's cheesy in bits but it's getting good now and when the Clairvoyant is revealed I feel the show could get very interesting. As a big Marvel fan I am sticking with it till cancellation but I can't see that coming anytime soon.

Agreed. I like the Clairvoyant arc, and have liked it so far. But if they get too 70's cheep superhero costumey ... We'll see how the next episode goes but the stills don't look inviting to me. :/

From one group of Heroes to another. Marvel have announced today that Adrian Pasdar, an alum of the NBC series, has signed on to play Glenn Talbot on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

n a sit down interview with Marvel they asked Adrian how it he got picked for the spot for Glenn Talbot. "In the same way that Iron Man [in ?Marvel?s Avengers Assemble?] came up. I got a call from my good friend, (Jeph Loeb), ?Would you come and do this role?? and I read the character description and I thought, ?Oh man. Here it is again. The sanctimonious [jerk]. That?s what they?re coming to me for.? [laughs] His way?s the only way! I said, ?Jeph, are you trying to tell me something? No, not at all! Nobody can play this quite like you, but no.? [laughs] So he came to me and I said yes.

Saturday I got into the mood to watch this series again. Boy was it a good thing for me to stop watching this for a while because I'm loving it now! Started watching at episode 6 on Saturday and I am now at episode 10. I must say that I'm not annoyed by the cheesiness any more at all. Oh, and Fitz owns if you ask me. That prank with the broom that scared even himself was quite funny :p

?Marvel?s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.? has recruited yet another special guest star with fan-favorite actor/comedian Patton Oswalt, who will join the cast as Agent Eric Koenig in an upcoming episode of the hit series.

Koenig, who first appeared in SGT. FURY AND HIS HOWLING COMMANDOS #27, was a part of Fury?s original team of World War II soldiers in the comics. Oswalt, perhaps best known for his roles in ?King of Queens,? ?Ratatouille? and countless other films and TV series, came onto ?Marvel?s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.? in perhaps the most straightforward way possible?he was simply asked.

    • 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.
