wow at the ending this week. we all knew shane was crazy, but I think the combo of dale pushing him and the walkers being walked back to the barn pushed him over. That also sucks about sophia, I wonder how she ended up there? Was she used as feeding bait?

Shane to me seems like more of the character that most on here expect to see in a zombie film

well each is their own. as far as the missing girl sub plot, i have a feeling its going to re surface in a big way later on. It could be she is with another group that picked her up, who knows?

all i can say is that im enjoying it so far

Good call. (Y) So yeah, I do not mind the whole Sophia sub story now, and really surprised I never thought of it as a possibility. Brilliant episode. (Y)

I can't help but wonder

when she was zombified and put in the barn though and who did put her there. Was she zombified pretty early after getting lost and Otis had enough time to round her up and put her in the barn before shooting Carl? No one else between the time Carl was brought in and now could have had enough time to look for zombies.

It's only because of those questions that I never put two and two together on that.

thats what you get when filming the show in the suburbs of Atlanta lol. There are actually a few unfinished suburbs that I know near me, the homes are prob 90 % complete and look decent enough to use for filming, not sure why they didn't seek out those

Yep, that is exactly what I figured happen. It was early on, before they even found the place.

Wow! What an ending. I can't help but think that Shane's thinking is what they need to survive. They can't afford to take the moral high road by holding on to the unlikely possibility that the zombies can one day be saved.

It was sad to see Sophia as a zombie. I was hoping they'd find her with another group.

You should watch The Talking Dead, Kirkman said they were originally gonna have Sophia walk out looking normal but she would've walked past the camera and we'd see a large wound on the back of her neck. He also said that Otis did find her and used the animal noose to walk her into the barn.

Chris Hardwick then started drooling over a possible webisode showing us Sophia's story when she went missing, which I think would've been a brilliant idea, they could stretch it out over the hiatus. Here's hoping they do something like that cos the gap is gonna be annoying without something.

I get the humor in that but from all the complaining I've seen over this season it seems like most would rather have accurate grass length and such instead of interesting character interaction and storyline development. Guess no one has patience to let a story develop through a few slower episodes. I knew something major was coming for the mid season finale and just enjoyed the anticipation.

Shane just jumped about 25 notches on the awesome post in the last episode. :yes: (Y)

To bad the next episode isn't out until February.

See, I don't like Shane at all. I think he was a dick, and was honestly hoping dale would shoot him.

    • Windows 11 version 26H2 is now available for testing in the latest preview build

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      Friday Windows 11 preview builds are here. Insiders in the Experimental (formerly Dev) and Beta Channel can download builds 26300.8697 and 26220.8690. My Windows11 device on the Preview Channel just got 26220.8728. My guess is this build is a nightly update from 26220.8690.
    • Traffic has a surprisingly unexpected impact on your surroundings

      Traffic has a surprisingly unexpected impact on your surroundings by Sayan Sen Image by Radik 2707 via Pexels A collaborative study by researchers from several Israeli institutions found that everyday pollution from traffic and industrial activity measurably changed the atmospheric electric field over the Tel Aviv metropolitan area, providing new evidence of how human activity can influence the lower atmosphere. The research was led by Dr. Roy Yaniv of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and the Gertner Institute at Sheba Medical Center, Dr. Assaf Hochman of the Fredy & Nadine Herrmann Institute of Earth Sciences at the Hebrew University, and Prof. Yoav Yair of Reichman University. The study also involved Itay Froomer, a student from Hadera High School and the Israeli Museum of Medicine and Science (Technoda), who carried out the work as part of the Ministry of Education's 5-unit physics research track. The researchers focused on the atmospheric electric field under fair-weather conditions. Even in the absence of storms, a weak electric field naturally exists between Earth's surface and the atmosphere. One of the main ways scientists measure this field is through the Potential Gradient (PG), which is the inverse of the vertical component of the electric field. PG is a key part of the global electric circuit, a planet-wide system of electrical currents maintained by thunderstorms and electrified clouds around the world. Scientists have long known that the atmospheric electric field can be influenced by factors ranging from large-scale atmospheric processes to local weather conditions such as dust, fog and clouds. Human-made pollution is also known to play a role, but understanding exactly how urban emissions affect the electric field close to the ground has remained an area of ongoing research. To investigate this relationship, the team analyzed measurements from a newly installed electric field mill, an instrument used to continuously monitor the strength of the atmospheric electric field. The instrument was installed at the Center for Technological Education (Roter House) in Holon and became operational in August 2024. It was funded by Israel's Ministry of Education and the Holon municipality. The electric field mill forms part of a broader monitoring network that includes nearby meteorological stations and air-quality monitoring sites. This allowed researchers to compare electric field measurements with detailed weather data and pollution records to better understand what was driving changes in the Potential Gradient. The study focused on two major urban pollutants: fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and nitrogen oxides (NOx), both commonly produced by vehicle traffic and industrial activity. PM2.5 refers to microscopic airborne particles small enough to remain suspended in the atmosphere for extended periods, while NOx is a group of gases released during fuel combustion. Researchers examined daily, weekly and seasonal patterns in the atmospheric electric field and compared them with changes in pollutant concentrations. Their analysis revealed a clear relationship between NOx levels and changes in the Potential Gradient, particularly during morning and evening rush hours when traffic emissions were at their highest. “What we observe is a direct physical link between emission peaks and electrical variability,” explained Dr. Roy Yaniv. “NOx reduces atmospheric conductivity very quickly, so the electric field responds almost instantaneously during traffic rush hours.” Atmospheric conductivity describes how easily electrical charges move through the air. According to the researchers, nitrogen oxides rapidly alter this conductivity, causing a near-immediate response in the electric field. PM2.5, however, was associated with a delayed response. The researchers attributed this difference to the particles' longer atmospheric residence time, meaning they remain in the atmosphere for longer periods, as well as their different microphysical interactions with surrounding air and atmospheric components. The study also identified a pronounced "weekend effect." In Israel, traffic volumes and some industrial activity decline significantly on Fridays and Saturdays. During these periods, concentrations of both NOx and PM2.5 dropped, and corresponding changes were observed in the atmospheric electric field. “The weekend signal demonstrates just how sensitive the electric field is to changes in human activity,” the researchers noted. “When emissions decline, the electrical environment adjusts at once, providing a high-resolution indicator of urban atmospheric conditions.” The findings showed that pollution levels can influence not only the chemical composition of the atmosphere but also its electrical properties. Researchers said the results strengthened the case for using atmospheric electricity as an additional tool for environmental monitoring, particularly in densely populated urban areas where anthropogenic, or human-caused, influences are most pronounced. The study also pointed to potential public health applications. By combining air-quality measurements with observations of atmospheric electricity, researchers said they could gain a more complete picture of how urban atmospheric conditions change over time. “Integrating air-quality data with electric-field measurements gives us a clearer picture of how the lower atmosphere evolves moment by moment,” the researchers added. “It’s a framework that can support both scientific insight and practical environmental decision-making.” Beyond the scientific findings, the project highlighted a collaboration between universities, public institutions and secondary education. Researchers said the work demonstrated how students could take part in real-world environmental research while contributing to studies of air quality, atmospheric processes and their potential effects on society.

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2, urges IT admins to prepare for release

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      We aren't even at the all-star game and Microsoft is talking about an update that will most likely be released during the World Series if not after. A lot can happen in the world between now and the 2026 World Series, including the 2026 FIFA Cup. Tell me about it again after the FIFA Cup is concluded. That should allow plenty of time to prepare for it.
