Rogue, DirecTV?s first original series, has been picked up for a second season. The suspense drama, starring Thandie Newton as morally and emotionally conflicted undercover detective Grace Travis, will begin production on its 10-episode second season late this summer for a 2014 premiere. The first season of Rogue, from Entertainment One and Greenroom Entertainment, recently finished its run on Audience where DirecTV previously aired new seasons of two acclaimed series it had rescued, Friday Night Lights and Damages. ?We are thrilled that our first venture into original programming resonated with our subscribers who enthusiastically tuned into Rogue each week,? said Chris Long, DirecTV?s SVP Entertainment and Production. ?We look forward to bringing them another season of Rogue and the chance to experience the next chapter in Grace?s life.? Added eOne TV CEO John Morayniss, ?Thandie?s incredible performance and edge-of-your-seat excitement, had audiences wanting more.? Rogue is a Canada-UK co-production from eOne, which also handles worldwide rights, and Greenroom, produced in participation with DirectTV. Series creator Matthew Parkhill executive produces with Greenroom?s Nick Hamm and eOne?s Morayniss and Michael Rosenberg.

      In the boot options in the UEFI is set to legacy or CMS? It needs to be set to UEFI if it's not already.

    • Researchers claim Microsoft's quantum breakthrough is flawed by basic Python errors

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      Researchers claim Microsoft's quantum breakthrough is flawed by basic Python errors by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft's aggressive roadmap to deliver a commercial quantum supercomputer by 2029 has now hit a bit of a snag, and it's not because of a complex sub-zero dilution refrigerator, but rather because of a few lines of basic Python code. A new critique published in the scientific journal Nature argues that simple software errors effectively manufactured the breakthrough that Microsoft's foundational research claimed back in 2025 into Majorana-based topological qubits. Topological quantum computing, the path that Microsoft chose for its research, relies on creating and controlling "Majorana zero modes." These are exotic quasiparticles that theoretically offer vastly superior error resistance compared to the highly sensitive superconducting qubits currently being championed by rivals like Google and IBM. However, physically proving you have created these particles requires sifting through massive amounts of complex electrical conductance data to isolate a specific "topological gap." Because of the sheer volume of data, physicists rely heavily on custom software pipelines to process the results. This is where the Python scripts come in. Now, according to the critique, Microsoft’s data processing software contained fundamental programming errors that ultimately skewed the published results. By mishandling data arrays or deploying incorrect logic within the Python script, the software supposedly discarded "noisy" or contradictory data. Which is why it only highlighted the specific electrical measurements that supported the topological-gap claim. The researchers behind the critique argued that this makes the findings invalid, suggesting the heralded "quantum leap" was actually a false positive generated by bad code and not a product of groundbreaking physics. However, Microsoft is pushing back hard against these allegations. The Redmond giant has formally rejected the criticism, saying that it's just a minor anomaly rather than a fatal flaw. According to the company, while there may have been a minor oversight in the data parsing scripts, it does not alter the fundamental reality of their physical experiment. Just weeks ago, Microsoft unveiled the Majorana 2 quantum processor, a milestone so significant that the company boldly accelerated its timeline for a commercial quantum supercomputer from 2035 down to 2029. But the new software allegations reopen an old wound. Microsoft's quantum division faced a remarkably similar crisis when a landmark 2018 paper on Majorana particles was famously retracted in 2021 after independent physicists discovered the data had been inappropriately cropped. That historical baggage makes the current Python-related allegations particularly sensitive. If the foundational math and data processing for the 2025 breakthrough are genuinely flawed, the highly anticipated 2029 commercial timeline could easily be delayed or, worse, cancelled.

      Because of what they have done to VMware I will never buy anything Broadcom again.
