"Lost" TV Show - Currently Season 2 (US aired)


Recommended Posts

Locke is the king :cool:

John Locke is, beyond a shadow of a doubt, my favorite character on the show (Y) I can only hope I am as courageous and brave at his age as he is. Man oh man was this ep great.

A question for Lost devotees (and I ask without intentionally trying to spoil): Do you guys think that the creator/writer of Lost had this specific story-line from the get-go (the beginning)? Reason I ask is Jack was originally supposed to die in the pilot episode :o

Oh GREAT WAY TO START THE SEASON

My take, on the hatch It is some kind of test facility that does tests on people but they have to be kids, thats why they took the french ladies baby, the black kid (forgot his name)....also those people Hurley ran into who were spooked by the numbers were people who had been tested on...ok a bit out there but it was the first thing that came to my mind soon as I saw the inside where that dude was... and that doctor Jack met before is of course a doctor there :p

They had a general idea for what the island is, but not really the characters. They basically knew the setting and then created some characters to throw in there. Jack easily could have died, which is the same with everyone else. It doesn't change what the island is, so anyone is expendible.

I'm just creeped out by a few things:

-All that computer equipment is old as crap. So, why does Desmond have a brand spanking new washer and drier?

-What does that computer do anyways?

-WTF was he injecting into himself? I'll have to check the HR-HDTV rip for that.

-What in the hell was that Walt scene all about?

Well, the hatch was opened, but there are now way too many questions to answer. It's a good thing they didn't end inside the hatch last season, that would have led to a revolt for sure... :D

^Yeah. JJ Abrams said that he knew what was on the island when he was writing it. And it is not dinsaurs :D

Amazing episode. After I saw Desmond, I thought to myself, that can't be "the guy". Turns out, he was. Wow.

So many more questions need to be answered now. Come on next weeek! :)

edit: the numbers on the vile were CR 4-81516-23 42

WTF!

Edited by Sniper34123

Yeah, I slowed down the Tivo and I saw the numbers on the vial as well.

But guess what, it's even better than that... when Desmond first types into the keyboard, slow it down and watch what he types. He uses the top row and you can CLEARLY see he is typing the numbers! If you don't believe me, check it out in slow motion. Hell, you can plainly see it in regular speed too!

A few other things I noticed:

1) Desmond some how has access to a food supply, running water, electricity, etc.

2) It looks like he works for some company or the place was built by some company. The logo on the panel where he pulls the injection from is the same logo on the suit that he slips on when he feels the explosion.

3) At the end, when Jack realizes he knows Desmond, Desmond has NO look of surprise whatsoever on his face... as if he was expecting Jack!

4) What in the world was that wall in the tunnel that was all blocked up and full of concrete buckets?! Something in there had an enourmously powerful magnetic field because it attracted Jack's key on his neck. Maybe this could have thrown off the plane's navigational equipment causing it to crash??

5) The whole little mirror telescope thing was awesome!

I'll post more things on here as I remember more but hopefully this will get you thinking.

BTW, the whole Shannon seeing Walt was FREAKY!

Don't forget the number 108 painted on the wall, which is sum of "the numbers" added together.

And a picture of an eye in front of the words M SICK. "EYE M SICK".

The words quarantined appeared under the lid of the hatch. Meaning, the outside was quarantined?

Damn! I was trying to figure out what in the hell 108 meant! Wow...

And I had the same thoughts about the quaranteen signage! What we were thinking was that the island has some sort of disease (which is why Danielle killed her crew... they were 'infected'). This would work hand in hand with why Desmond injected maybe some sort of vaccine into his arm.

Excellent Theory!!!

AMAZING episode... UGH, man I hate this show. Keeps me so wrapped around it, thinking of different theories, etc...

The people who wrote this are great at building and secret keeping, that's for damn sure.

    • 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
    • AT&T has been spying on US citizens with the NSA for decades.. they just know how to keep it more under wraps.. the evil level is still there.
