let the speculations begin

have you guys also seen the trailer? you can see a young woman holding a doll of a big daddy... suppose that she was one of the little sisters, and its taken 7 years for her to grow so much, could she also have been a genetically modified person to age quickly , just like jack?

that trailer is a placeholder for the trilogy, imo. the woman/girl represents BIOSHOCK3 (which have been confirmed, btw). BIOSHOCK2 is clearly about the building of the City of Rapture (shown in the first part of the trailer). I believe (especially after looking at www.somethinginthesea.com) is about Andrew Ryan secretly building rapture under the eyes of the three world super powers...

hell - I'm excited too... :woot:

The trailer is what really confuses me, I was under the impression BioShock 2 was the prequel to BioShock, but that trailer sorta implies it's a sequel.....I'm not bothered either way as I loved the first game and definitely will get BioShock 2, I'm just damn confused about what it's suppose to be! :wacko:

Can't wait for the next one. :D

And I don't know why people are saying its a prequel, the first game took place in 1960, but the dates on the newspaper cut outs all say 67? so surely it is a sequel.

was anyone able to access the hidden dots on the website? I've been trying but can't find any of them.

Hidden dots?

huh... are you confusing between the trailer and the fan art pictures a long time ago which people kept saying was official until it was revealed that they were not official at all?

hmm the 4th posting on the somethinginthesea website has that poster in the first post.... gaah i sound confusing, basically its the one which says www.somethinginthesea.com on it.... its as if the internet existed back in 1967??

also, if you click around the southern part of Africa, there is a 'blank' posting, like the rest of the site blurs out and you can hear a piece of paper, but nothing shows up...maybe thats the next location?

huh wtf a new pile of papers just got posted on the south part of Africa... im confused...like its got a string attached to the 4th posting... i think it only appeared after i tried the 'trace the hidden dots from southern Ireland' thing or something

::edit:: and no freakin way some website is gonna make me do those voices!!

    • 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
