That was an awesome episode. I loved pausing my DVR to catch any small details of the other side.

Here's a small shot of the US posted on Facebook:

Texas is split, Oklahoma and Kansas are one as well as North and South Dakota, California is half gone, there's no Alaska, Hawaii or upper Michigan. Everything else from Illinois down to Louisiana straight east look the same, though a high res version of the map will probably show otherwise.

I was also wondering why they kept picking on Charlie with his shots, but then my wife remembered. Charlie nearly died last season. His body was impregnated with those leech kind of things. While our Charlie was cured, their Charlie keeps having to deal with it. So many other great things in the episode, but the thing I'm most curious about is where is their William Bell? We keep seeing ours, but no sign of theirs.

Why is the other world awesome?

Also, what's the device and what will it do to Peter... why can't Peter be special, or is he special? Sorry... haven't watched too many episodes

yeah..you might want to go watch some episodes. no offense to you, but it seems this may have been like your first episode and you're trying to get an explanation of 2 whole seasons in a short time. your best bet is to try and watch the past episodes. You could even skip the first season and stick with the 2nd only and be fine.

JUst a way to keep him around longer. Considering everybody else is different its also away to have somebody else play him . Since our bell knows whats going on I am sure theirs does also.

A few things I was wondering. I wonder why they moved the DOD HQ to the Statue of liberty and not to a bigger office building, since the Pentagon was/is one of the largest office buildings in the world. Why does their Statue look different, was it hit on 9/11 or that's just the way theirs is meant to look. It seems obvious they have some sort of bacta tank technology on their side, but I wonder if they have devices to bring people back to life. The dialogue at the start of the episode seemed to imply those 4 had died before as a result of doing a previous quarantine and yet didn't seem all that fazed at the thought of possibly dying again. Finally I'd like to see what happened in their Boston that they spoke briefly about at the start and I want to see more of the "blight" they mentioned earlier in the season.

    • My favorite file manager for Windows 11 finally gets a long-requested feature

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      My favorite file manager for Windows 11 finally gets a long-requested feature by Taras Buria Files is among the best File Explorer alternatives for Windows 10 and 11. This free app is packed with all sorts of features and conveniences, but there is one crucial feature that is still missing—Tree View. Fortunately, the latest update in the Preview channel finally delivers it. With version 4.1.4, which is now available for download in the Preview channel, developers implemented Tree View, a new mode that displays folders in an expandable hierarchy. Windows 11's stock File Explorer always had this feature, but it was nowhere to be found in Files until now. Starting with the latest preview update, you can expand each drive and its nested folders without leaving the current location and then open the folder you need in the main view. To try Tree View in Files, update the app to the latest preview version, then click the small arrow next to a drive to expand its content. The developers say they are rolling out Tree View in Preview first to gather feedback from users and improve the feature before bringing it to all in the stable channel. In addition to Tree View, Files 4.1.14 improves the Windows Fonts folder. You can now preview each font directly in Files with no need to open the built-in font viewer. For now, these two features are only available in the Preview channel. For those using the stable release, developers recently released version 4.1.3, with improvements for the built-in tag system, on-demand folder size calculation, and plenty of various fixes. You can check out the full release notes here. You can download Files from the Microsoft Store (paid version) or its official website (free).

      Who is paying for this 30x scale-up? Its sounds expensive.
    • Millions of users to benefit from Windows 11's new performance boost on Adobe Photoshop

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Millions of users to benefit from Windows 11's new performance boost on Adobe Photoshop by Sayan Sen Despite the advent of AI-generated imagery, Adobe's Photoshop remains one of the most popular tools on this planet. Adobe does not have a publicly reported total user count but it's probably not wrong to assume there are millions. As of 2025, Adobe Creative Cloud has had approximately 41 million paid subscribers, many of whom likely use Photoshop. In addition, more than 166,000 companies worldwide are apparently also using the app. These figures are according to a very recent report by SQ Magazine. Out of them, it is fair to assume that many are probably running Windows. As such, there is good news for these users as Microsoft has announced Photoshop is getting a big 20% performance boost on x86-64 (AMD64) systems and a 13% bump-up on Arm devices. This is definitely great news for them as many have complained about the slow performance and general sluggishness of Photoshop on Windows 11 ever since the advent of the latter back in 2021. If you are wondering how Microsoft managed to do this, the answer lies in a combination of compiler-level optimizations and a technology called Sample Profile Guided Optimization (SPGO). According to Microsoft, Adobe worked closely with the company’s Visual C++ team and adopted the latest MSVC toolchain enhancements together with SPGO to squeeze more performance out of Photoshop’s CPU-bound workloads. Unlike traditional Profile Guided Optimization (PGO), which requires developers to create special instrumented builds and run lengthy training workloads, SPGO gathers performance data directly from optimized release binaries. This means Adobe could collect real-world usage information which gives a major advantage to this technique, as companies could leverage data collected from actual customer workloads rather than only relying on synthetic benchmark runs. In theory, this should allow optimizations to better reflect how users interact with software in the real world. Thanks to this, there are improvements to code layout, function inlining, hot-and-cold code separation, and other low-level tweaks that help processors execute instructions more efficiently. Essentially the compiler is better able to identify “hot” code paths, those which are most frequently executed, and optimize them accordingly.

      "The 2TB Samsung 990 PRO NVMe SSD hits lowest price in over three months¨ I'd prefer to see the lowest price in over a year

      Glad these prices are starting to come down, but that is still crazy. I bought the 2TB 9100 Pro (slightly more expensive version with PCIe 5.0) last year for $240.
