I felt underwhelmed to be honest. I don't mean to be so critical, but I didn't feel enough for the Mother because of her near absence from the entire show, let alone this season. I didn't get a connection with her and would have felt more if Robin had died than the Mother.

 

Like most series finales, I just didn't care enough anymore to actually feel anything. It also felt like they were trying to hard to please the fans with the Robin/Ted setup at the end. Blarg! I know this is a comedy, but seriously? Just felt forced and after nine long years, I hoped for a better ending.

 

They could have spent more time this season getting that connection to the Mother instead of so many stupid flashbacks and maybe I would have cared more about her when she died. Ultimately, it was a dud for me.

 

[edit] If you come into a thread after an episode has aired, be warned, spoilers lie ahead. DUH! :rolleyes:

loved the finale.  

i always did wonder why ted started the story exactly around the time when robin entered the picture.  

 

hehe...I guess we all know now.  

 

however, I do wish they spent more of the season fleshing out mother.  other than that, legendary finale.

I think it was a great ending. I know a lot of people didn't really care for the show and watching it and saying they hated it. I believe some die-hard fans loved the ending, because they watch it religiously and they know that everything that happened on the episode really made sense.

    • Microsoft's fast coding model MAI-Code-1-Flash comes to Copilot Business and Enterprise

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      Microsoft's fast coding model MAI-Code-1-Flash comes to Copilot Business and Enterprise by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft’s recently announced MAI-Code-1-Flash model is now generally available to GitHub Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise customers. With this support, organizations can have more centralized policy controls and billing while finally being able to use Microsoft’s lightweight, first-party coding model. According to GitHub’s announcement, Business and Enterprise plan administrators must enable the MAI-Code-1-Flash policy in Copilot settings before developers can access the model. Microsoft says that MAI-Code-1-Flash is for fast, iterative coding work rather than the most demanding architectural or debugging tasks. GitHub’s official model comparison page says that the model is great for "general-purpose coding and writing," while it excels at fast, accurate code completions and explanations Microsoft introduced MAI-Code-1-Flash on June 2 as part of a broader collection of internally developed MAI models. GitHub subsequently expanded support to Copilot CLI, the Copilot cloud agent, GitHub.com chat, GitHub Mobile, Visual Studio, JetBrains IDEs, Eclipse, and Xcode, but said support for managed Business and Enterprise customers was still on the way. In Microsoft’s own benchmark testing, MAI-Code-1-Flash scored 51.2% on SWE-Bench Pro, compared with 35.2% for Anthropic’s Claude Haiku 4.5. Microsoft also claimed that the model used up to 60% fewer tokens on SWE-Bench Verified. Do note that these are vendor-run results rather than independent measurements. The model is billed at provider list pricing under GitHub’s usage-based system. GitHub currently lists MAI-Code-1-Flash at $0.75 per million input tokens, $0.075 per million cached input tokens, and $4.50 per million output tokens. For organizations, the main incentive to use MAI-Code-1-Flash is likely to be efficiency rather than maximum capability. A smaller model that responds quickly and limits unnecessary output is quite useful for repetitive agent tasks at scale, especially after GitHub Copilot’s move toward usage-based billing. The "Flash" model is recommended for fast work and not necessarily for huge repositories with loads of context. It's better if teams compare their output with other larger models, especially if they're working on security-sensitive changes and complex, multi-file work.

      yes AND no the "original" or plain/normal Optiplex 7010 won't be getting any more new firmware updates BUT the Optiplex SFF/SFF Plus {small form factor}, Micro/Micro Plus & Tower/Tower Plus 7010 editions DO get new updates such as this new one   and here are similar guides from the Dell web site for Dell systems: https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000390990/secure-boot-transition-faq https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000347876/microsoft-2011-secure-boot-certificate-expiration
