As you might remember, executive producer David Eick had told us that Syfy would have to make a decision whether to renew the show by August 15, because of the cast members' expiring contracts. Apparently, Syfy and the higher-ups at NBC Universal need more time to make the decision, because they've reportedly extended the contracts until November ? which seems like the sort of thing they would only do if they're genuinely unsure whether to renew the show or not. The show's first season was split into two halves, and the second half will air starting in January. [Fancast]

lol. This show is getting ridiculous even more. I dont know why do I follow, probably a living remind of galactica still in my memory and they lil by lil are killing. For a moment I thought that I was watching a bad copy of the vulcans religion but no!, it was Bajorans!!. I almost fall laughing when I saw "mother" and all the (really) bad episodes of deep space nine come to my mind.

They were playing with that stupid robot for almost a year, trying to keep the galactica viewers watching but now that (stupid robot with a fat teenager mind) is 'destroyed'. Her stupid mind is floating around, in the 'other' caprica (how convenient!) and she is a neo with a fat face looking for her 'girlfriend'.

On the other hand, ho ho, give me a break, the lesbians old ladies club (is that what should be called?) is more disgusting than "hot". Wont be that long that they wanna break another (what should I call it?) 'thing' and they (both, the lesbians old ladies) would marry with a transexual female to male.

Probably the writters find 2 girls and one cup 'hot' and their twisted minds make them write trash like this. Who know, probably the fans are like them (Im not).

The smoking thing is another thing that annoys me. I wonder about the sponsors of this series.

Lets why and see (if I can resist another episode) if we are lucky and see the fat neo-chick doing the lesbians club. Its matter of time.

What are the ratings for the show? About two and a half minutes into the video that Rappy posted (see here), Alessanda Torresani said that if they don't get as many viewers as the season finale the show will be cancelled. And by season finale, she meant the finale for part one because season one is split into two parts (with 9 epsiodes each).

And by season finale, she meant the finale for part one because season one is split into two parts (with 9 epsiodes each).

Alessandra Torresani said on Tuesday?s Attack of the Show .. "Tonight is a really important episode because if we don?t get as good as the viewership that we had for the season finale of 1.0, they?re gonna cancel the show"

The season 1.5 premiere of Caprica saw fewer viewers and adults 18-49 than the finale of season 1.0. The finale in March averaged 1.1 million and a 0.5 rating with adults 18-49. Last night?s return drew 889,000 viewers and a 0.4 rating with adults 18-49.

Somehow I doubt they got their numbers. I saw it, I loved it (even though the only really awesome thing in this episode happened at the very end), but I'd completely forgotten it was coming back on anytime soon.

Looks like we can kiss this goodbye then?

That will be a real shame, as I was particularly enjoying the slow build to the future.

yeah and I think that's the problem alot of people just want everything to happen NOW rather then a build up :(

I really can't stand it anymore: Looking from the sky down to Caprica City you have this semi-futuristic city, yet at street level they did absolutely nothing to even remotely mask the fact they're filming in some North American city. Hell, the cars they drive in say enough. The space flight capability, computer technology people have at home, robots etc. don't match at all with the vehicles and stuff you see on the streets. They did a poor job at masking those MacBook Pros as well. Compared to other current popular si-fi shows the special effects are pretty poor too. It's kind of ruining the show for me because I'm constantly reminded its fake.

Low budget.

    • Qualcomm reportedly in talks to build custom video chips for TikTok parent ByteDance

      I hope this encodes in to AV1 or AV2 as currently tiktok uses h265 and h264.
    • Qualcomm reportedly in talks to build custom video chips for TikTok parent ByteDance

      Qualcomm reportedly in talks to build custom video chips for TikTok parent ByteDance by Karthik Mudaliar Qualcomm is reportedly in advanced discussions to provide custom chip-design services to Chinese tech giant ByteDance, the same company behind TikTok. According to a report from Reuters, Qualcomm could be involved in designing custom silicon tailored for ByteDance's massive data-center workloads. If it goes through, the deal would make ByteDance one of Qualcomm's early anchor customers for its fastly growing custom chip-design division, For years, Qualcomm was the king of making smartphone processors and modems. The company has also been moving into the PC ecosystem and other formats such as on-device AI for Android XR headsets. However, this particular deal is about Qualcomm's custom Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs). For a platform like TikTok, ByteDance needs hardware that can help it ingest, process, and serve billions of short-form videos daily. Generalised hardware is no longer the most cost-effective and efficient route, which is why ByteDance is trying to develop custom Video Processing Units (VPUs). VPUs designed specifically for ByteDance’s algorithmic needs could drastically reduce data-center power consumption and improve encoding speeds at an unprecedented scale. The underlying tech behind these processors is actually from Qualcomm's recent acquisition of AlphaWave Semi, a high-speed connectivity specialist company. By combining AlphaWave’s high-bandwidth IP with Qualcomm’s architectural expertise, the company could begin mass production by the end of 2026, if the talks go through. All this also comes at a time when U.S.-China tech relations have dwindled. Escalating trade frictions between Washington and Beijing have severely impacted the export of high-end AI chips from U.S. firms like Nvidia, AMD, and Lam Research. Yet, the Qualcomm-ByteDance discussions show that U.S. tech companies are still actively seeking growth avenues and are open to doing business with China, where regulators still permit. Reuters notes that the outcome of this deal could be uncertain, and ByteDance might also seek partners other than Qualcomm. via Reuters | Image via DepositPhotos.com
