Dont f******* believe it, i went out for a bit come back and my back window was smashed in, f*****s have taken my f***** PS3, 360, TV, Games, CDs, Mobile, everything, they must have been disturbed as nothing upstairs has gone, i still have my PC thankfully.

f******* scum, so much for playing MGS4 now :/

Oh my god, so sorry to hear that man :/

Must really, really suck - You talked to the police yet?

Yes, had the police round taking a statement, had a forensics officer dusting for prints. Only just bought the damn PS3 as well and preordered MGS4 at same time.

Bloody hell, they were quick on the scene! All fingers and toes are crossed that you get it all back.

Word of advice, get home insurance.

:lol:

You can only hope that it RROD's on them and burns their house down. Don't forget to ring MS and cancel your credit card/account with them. Same with you PSN account, whatever card you have attached to it, get it removed.

But its not all stolen, they now know you have no alarm so they could very well be back to clear you out. Get it sorted mate.

Yeah they did that to a friend of mine..

Came a month later again then took even more, not to mention the car :s

I'm sorry to ear about that man! You probably won't get it back (at least here in Portugal that's how it works, police simply doesn't care), that's why you should get insurance and maybe an alarm. I have insurance, I never needed it but I'm glad I have it. Good luck.

I'm willing to bet they dispatch on monday, as they send second class, only occasionally recorded.

I smell a friendly bet coming on ;)

Not sure how we can tell the winner though. Orders from Play.com won't be received until Thursday at the earliest. They always do this at the beginning of the week (say they have stock), because they do have stock now.

Most will porbably recieve the game on Wednesday or Thursday. They send them out 2 days prior to launch to meet the street dates, but if you are in a good location you'll often recieve your copy early.

I won't get mine til the Thursday due to who I ordered with. NG2 until then :D

    • 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
