Probably because it isn't 1993 anymore..... No doubt the computer you're using is also very different than 22 years ago

Back in the 90s I never thought I would have an 8 core machine. I remember in 1999 IBM was working on a dual core CPU and they were having all kinds of issues because it was getting way too hot...LOL....LOL.

I predict they will ax it sooner than later:

Now...Don't get me wrong...I would love for this show to be successful. I kinda like the chic. She's cute and she's not doing a bad job, but this show should be in Syndication not CBS. It has a better chance to make it on the Sci-Fi channel or USA Network than it does on CBS. If it gets cancelled (which looks inevitable the way the ratings are going), I hope Sci-Fi, CW or USA grabs it.

 

I'd like to see Netflix pick it up if it gets cancelled, like they did Longmire, The Killing, and Arrested Development.

If anything it would probably go to the CW channel if CBS cans it.

I somewhat agree with you. While the 3rd episode did pick up the pace from the slow 2nd one, I have a feeling now that Kara is out to prove herself and stand alone,

 

I agree. She's learning her powers, and soon enough she'll be the tough, confident, sexy, strong heroine who won't take any crap from baddies. The kind of woman that turns me on :) Melissa is amazing in the costume, she's a sweetheart, if she can pull both the sweet and tough egos off she'll be as perfect as I feel she can be.

As for the love triangle stuff, how many guys here can honestly say they wouldn't be doing all they can to get into trouble to have Supergirl rescue them if she really existed? I for one would be front of the queue jumping off a bridge to have her swoop me up! Jimmy Olsen needs to go though, and Calista. Get rid of the cheese, SG will turn itself around tenfold.

Human for a Day next week after a massive heat vision blast at Red Tornado, just like Superman after he uses his heat vision derived Super Flare - down for a day. Like a giant collection of solar supercapacitors, their cells are, and Kryptonians sometimes need to recharge.

 

Yes, its canon

Laura Vandervoort to Appear on Supergirl

 

Laura Vandervoort, the actress who played Kara Zor-El in Smallville, will appear in an upcoming episode of Supergirl as the villain Indigo, producers revealed today at the Television Critics Association.

 

The character will appear in the fifteenth episode of the show's first season, which will follow on the heels of what are expected to be two anticipated episodes.

 

Indigo is described by producers as "a living, strong-willed supercomputer that was sentenced to Fort Rozz after turning against the people of Krypton. Now on Earth, Indigo will let nothing stand in her way."

I don't like the fact they are using the crystalline FoS of the movies & Smallville -- I don't remember if the FoS ever appeared on Superboy -- when this Supergirl appears to come from the same technologically advanced Krypton like in the MoS movie.

Well, I'm surprised no one posted about this, but Supergirl is getting a season 2, and in the process it's moving from CBS over to the CW.  This means we're in for a good bit more crossovers going down, more flash and maybe some Arrow if they feel like it?

Supergirl retains Monday night spot following move CW.

 

Unlike its competitors, The CW has figured out a formula to make superhero shows work. In keeping up with audience demand for more superhero related content, The CW announced today that it will air Supergirl at 8 p.m. ET during its upcoming fall season.

 

Supergirl, which stars Melissa Benoit as the titular superhero, had its first season on CBS, but the network announced earlier this month that it wasn't going to renew the show. Instead, CBS moved Supergirl over to The CW, its sister network, where network president Les Moonves thought the show might fare better. The show suffered from poor ratings on CBS, even with the support from the network and a pretty good time slot (it also aired at 8 p.m. ET on CBS).

I could be wrong but I remember hearing it had something like 10-13million viewers?  If that's correct then how is that low ratings for CBS?

It started with almost 13 million viewers but then lost over half of them.

      Same Internet Archive seemed to grab the new version https://web.archive.org/web/20...d/Setup_MakeMKV_v1.18.4.exe Here's the link to an additional file it periodically downloads https://web.archive.org/web/20260213092148/https://www.makemkv.com/sdf.bin I think update's keys, etc. To manually trigger this update, put the sdf.bin file in the root of where the program is installed. When you launch the program it will pick up the file and import it. Typically put it here: C:\Program Files (x86)\MakeMKV\sdf.bin
    • Windows 11 KB5094126, KB5093998 bugging out Office apps but it may not be Microsoft's fault

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Windows 11 KB5094126, KB5093998 bugging out Office apps but it may not be Microsoft's fault 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. Although the tech giant did not acknowledge any major problems, some users online reported various issues ranging from OneDrive and Dropbox access problems, BitLocker recovery lockouts, to blue screens and BSODs. You can read about them in this dedicated piece. While there is still no confirmation about those problems from Microsoft the company has admitted to another bug which we did not report on. The tech giant has confirmed it has received reports of an issue in which certain third-party applications may be unable to launch Microsoft Office apps or open Office documents after installing the Patch Tuesday. This affects both Windows 11 as well as Windows 10. The company says the problem impacts a subset of applications that rely on OLE (Object Linking and Embedding) automation to communicate with Microsoft Office programs. According to Microsoft, affected scenarios involve third-party software attempting to open Office applications or documents from within their own interface. In such cases, the Office program may fail to launch altogether, or the requested document may not open. Oddly there may not be any error message, which probably makes the issue difficult to diagnose. The bug affects several Office products, including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, and other apps in the Microsoft Office suite when they are launched through the affected software. These include tax and accounting software such as CCH Engagement and Workpaper Manager, dental practice management solutions like Dentrix and Softdent, as well as the popular research and reference management tool Zotero. Microsoft adds that other applications using similar Office integration methods could also experience the same problematic behavior. To understand the issue it is important to look at OLE, the Microsoft technology involved. OLE allows different applications to work together and share data, while its Automation feature lets one program control another. Thus this enables third-party software to launch Microsoft Office apps, open documents, and perform tasks automatically without requiring users to switch between programs. Because many accounting, healthcare, research, and business applications rely on OLE automation to interact with Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and other Office apps, any disruption can break those workflows. As a result, affected software may be unable to open Office documents or launch Office applications even though the programs themselves continue to work normally. At the moment the company has not provided a permanent fix though it has confirmed that engineers are actively working on a resolution, which will be delivered through a future Windows update. As such additional details will be shared once more information becomes available. In the meantime, Microsoft recommends a simple workaround for affected users whic is to open the Office application or document directly rather than launching it through the third-party program. For enterprise customers and organizations managing larger deployments, Microsoft says an additional mitigation is available. Admins experiencing the problem on their managed devices are advised to contact Microsoft Support for business to obtain and apply the workaround.

      It saddens me when cars are such dull colours now. Mine is bright metallic blue and I absolutely adore it for standing out in contrast to that depressing backdrop of traffic.
