Have you ever noticed how Jack always gets handcuffed, detained then let loose at lease once per season.

Well, they know if they don't uncuff him he'll just strangle them with the cuffs.

i was so disappointed that cole didn't put one between the eyes on those douchebags

Yeah, he only blew one away with a shotgun ;)

Any hope for another season of ?24?? ? Josue

There had been talk that ?24?s renewal would be informed by its latest ratings, but the truth is that any dips this or last week won?t figure into the decision, due to the heavy-duty Olympics competition. Regardless, Fox does have quite the Sophie?s Choice coming up, since it?s not likely to renew ?24,? ?Fringe,? ?Lie to Me? and ?Human Target.? Which would you cut? To the ?24′ skeptics, know this: As suggested last night, any B-stories that have you groaning will die down by spring, clearing the way for a tight second half. And on the guest star front, Stephen Root (?Office Space?) turns up soon as a parole officer with really bad timing, while Emmy nominee Gregory Itzin is due for an encore as President Charles Logan.

Why would you wanna cut 24? :( :no: :cry:

because its had 8 seasons and the stories are as weak as a chocolate teapot

Fringe has loads more to tell which the could do with another 2 seasons and then end it at 4

24 already being shopped around to other networks?

Another very bad sign for 24 according to NBC Angela Bromstad 24 seems to be exploring other networks for a pickup meaning it is probably very unlikely to be renewed by FOX

THR: If Fox passes on doing another season of "24," would NBC be interested?

Bromstad: I think it would be expensive for us. It's been floated. It's all going to come down to how strong our development is.

This episode was a moderate improvement over the last, if for no other reason than the absence of the two douchebags (well, they were mostly absent), but compared to other seasons this one is a pretty big disappointment so far. Why the hell didn't Jack just grab that guy the moment he saw him? His hesitation was completely out of character, and a blatant attempt to kill time on the writers' part.

Back in some of the other seasons (1, 3, 5, and even 7 for that matter) I was so engrossed in the show that I would drop everything to watch it, but nowadays I usually have my laptop out to do some work while 24 runs in the background. The show should have ended while it was still good, but I feel that way about most television shows. It's so hard to make a hit TV show that when one finally succeeds, the networks just have to run it into the ground.

Yet another problem facing 24 Annie Wersching (Renee) is pregnant this won't affect season 8 but given her pregnancy she will not be available for the bulk of season 9 if it were picked up (which is not a likely outcome at this point)

I'm not really paying much attention to it anymore. Every episode seems like the same old stuff repeatedly.

yep I gave up about 5 episodes back its just crap again, I gave up earlier then on Season 7...I hope this is the last season.

      Hello, It would appear so, according to https://finance.yahoo.com/news/how-to-hide-your-home-on-google-maps-apple-maps-204146687.html. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky

      Hello, The Nvidia Founders Edition 3080 video card is approximately six years old, correct? Have you looked into whether replacement fans are available for it? Perhaps replacing those will improve cooling, especially when combined with cleaning the card's heatsink and replacing the thermal interface materials. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky  
    • DuRoBo Krono Review: Portable E-Ink reader with great ideas that need a bit of improvement

      By goretsky · Posted

      Hello, While ~104 GB of space may seem generous (at least compared to other e-readers which have 8-32GB), I feel at this price point the device should have a Micro SDXC card slot for expansion, particularly if it allows audio books to be installed and played. I hope to see more reviews of 6" phone-sized e-readers on Neowin in the future. It will be interesting to see how they compare. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky

      Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 by Razvan Serea Run programs in a sandbox to prevent malware from making permanent changes to your PC. Sandboxie allows you to run your browser, or any other program, so that all changes that result from the usage are kept in a sandbox environment, which can then be deleted later. Sandboxie is a sandbox-based isolation software for 32- and 64-bit Windows NT-based operating systems. It is being developed by David Xanatos since it became open source, before that it was developed by Sophos (which acquired it from Invincea, which acquired it earlier from the original author Ronen Tzur). It creates a sandbox-like isolated operating environment in which applications can be run or installed without permanently modifying the local or mapped drive. An isolated virtual environment allows controlled testing of untrusted programs and web surfing. Sandboxie is available in two flavors Plus and Classic. Both have the same core components, this means they have the same level of security and compatibility. What's different is the user interface the Plus build has a modern Qt based UI which supports all new features that have been added since the project went open source. The Classic build has the old no longer developed MFC based UI, hence it lacks support for modern features, these features can however still be used when manually configured in the Sandboxie.ini. Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 release notes: Added added DisableCustomTitleOpt=[process,][y|n] to allow [#] sandboxie title markers on custom-titlebar windows (Delphi VCL, Qt, Electron) that were previously skipped to prevent DWM repaint CPU loops #5387 Changed updated bundled ImDisk driver to 3.0.2 #5419 Fixed fix Suppress logs for expected non-user SIDs #5422 SbieSvc.exe: SBIE2218/2219 error when run program as administrator #5417 fixed explorer.exe crashes in Application Compartment when Huorong Security is installed #5423 Download: Sandboxie Plus (64-bit) | 23.5 MB (Open Source) Download: Sandboxie Classic (64-bit) | 3.0 MB Links: Sandboxie Website | GitHub | ARM64 | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • what other retro software do yall use

      Hello, Christian Maas' XVI32 is a nice (and very small) hex editor. Speaking of hex editors, many years ago a colleague and I who both worked at Tribal Voice managed to edit a copy of the company's PowWow instant messaging client to make it behave better now that all of its lookup servers and other server-side tech was gone.  The program didn't support NAT (RFC-3022 was introduced in January 2001, the same time Tribal Voice was shuttered), but it still worked okay if you manually set up port-forwarding on your router.  The server at http://powwow.jazy.net/ hosts a copy (usual warnings about downloading and running untrusted code from random internet servers apply). I occasionally use some tools like Funduc Software's Search and Replace and Application Mover when I need to make mass-edits to text-based files or move programs with a hard-coded installation directories, respectively.  When I need to figure out the exact LCD panel inside of a laptop, EnTech Taiwan's Monitor Asset Manager is my go-to tool for that purpose. JD Design's website (now hosted on github.io) has a number of interesting freeware and shareware utilities.  I used to use their TouchPro utility to set the file timestamps on software I was mastering to match its version number (e.g., version 3.00 of a program had all of its files dates set to 3:00AM, and so forth). Karenware has a number of interesting freeware utilities, too. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
