8pm (central) still Rappy? I swear I've asked it a million times but this time I'm actually going to write it down! Putting the fall schedule into my phone currently so I don't forget.

On another note, NBC really has me booked so far. Chuck (eventually), Law and Order:SVU, Heroes, and I'm going to start watching that new Community show with Joel McHale.

I am not sure on the time but I would imagine they won't change it.

Heroes and Sprint have partnered for several webseries since the NBC series began, but the connection between the main series and webseries will grow closer this year.

Heroes' new season begins with the next volume, "Redemption", and the introduction of a carnival that is the home to several major new super-powered characters. Meanwhile, the next ten-part webseries, launching September 28th, will focus on that carnival, with three characters from the series also playing a part in the webseries.

In addition, a new character introduced in the webseries will then appear on Heroes this season ? the daughter to carnival member Lydia (played by Dawn Olivieri). Like her mother, Lydia will have a power of her own.

Below is the full press release for the new webseries:

Well, now that Heroes is finally going to arrive, in just like 4 days, I think I'll rejoin this thread. I have kept away from a lot of the spoilers, but recently did a quick catch up. Season seemed to be crappy at first, but the more i've seen, the more I'm looking forward to it. Lets hope this is a good refreshing beginning.

Any news as to whether this will be the last season or is there a chance we get another if this season somehow rockets up?

    • PowerToys is getting a new window management utility

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      PowerToys is getting a new window management utility by Taras Buria If you use PowerToys on Windows 11 or 10, you probably know that the app has quite a few utilities for window management. Fancy Zones, Always on Top, Crop and Lock, just to name a few. Soon, Microsoft will add another one, and fans of Alt + Tab should be excited. Proposed by Clint Rutkas, the module has a very simple idea: use a keyboard shortcut to toggle between windows within one app. For example, if you have four browser windows open, Alt + ` will let you switch between them just like Alt + Tab switches between all running apps. Here is the utility description from its GitHub pull request: Like other PowerToys utilities, Alt Window Cycle will offer shortcut customization. You will be able to use default shortcuts (Alt + ` for the next window or Alt + Shift + ` for the previous one) or remap them to something else. For now, there is no information on when Alt Window Cycle will arrive, so we will have to wait for the next PowerToys feature update (Microsoft usually pushes them on a monthly basis). Recently, Microsoft released version 0.100, which reworked the shortcuts guide, introduced an extension gallery for Command Palette, and more. Shortly after, version 0.100.1 arrived as a bug-fixing update. PowerToys is available on Windows 10 and 11, and you can get the app from the official GitHub repository, the Microsoft Store, or winget. Although Windows 10 is no longer supported, PowerToys developers currently do not plan to drop the now-unsupported operating system. And with Microsoft giving Windows 10 one more year in the Extended Security Update, you can expect PowerToys to remain available on Windows 10 for quite a while.
