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


Recommended Posts

I had really hoped they would stop with those flashbacks. They bore the hell out of me... I mean we know the background of the cast from the first season and now they should focus more on the island...

If they hadn't done the flash back we wouldn't have known the connection between Jack & Desmond.

Exactly. Also, they give us important insights into who these people really were before the crash. These people have changed very quickly and some very drastically since they've been on the island. Their survival instincts are kicking in, their hidden traits are coming forward, they are taking risks. All of this becomes even more engaging and meaningful when you see a flashback of Jack having basically no compassion for a woman that may be paralized from the waist down, and even as he transforms in the flashback just, he is shocked to find out the final outcome of the surgery, directly after AGAIN telling the woman there was no hope and he had failed (I'm trying not to spoil). Plus Desmond trying to explain to him that exactly what happened may be possible ;)

You know Jack eventually marries the woman he operated on, right? That was the topic of a flashback in the 1st season.

Hmm, I guess I had forgotten that part of the story :( No Matter, I assumed they got married later even though I must have missed that episode ;)

a lot of posts in one day... and what really sucks is, im only on disc 2 of season 1. and theres.. 5-6?

people at work just started talking about it, and now my WHOLE work is hooked on it.. so im playing catch up on this show.. and im done the first disc, and truely amazed! i don't even know why im on the internet.. i wanna watch more!

Man what a way to start off.? LOVE IT!

Can anyone figure out what Walt was saying?? It didnt make any sense at all to me.

The Walt thing is VERY freaky. The reason you can't understand him is because he is actually talking in reverse!

If you get what he says and reverse it, you can hear him say "Press the button. No button's bad"

This is very strange if you ask me... and the only button I can think of is the "Execute" button that Jack was about to press. If I can find the link to the wav file of Walt talking reversed, I'll post it here.

[EDIT: Here is the link with what Walt said but played in reverse. http://www.foxmod.com/lost/Walt.mp3 [/EDIT]

Does anybody have the "secret scene" that wasn't shown in the premiere? It was supposed to be shown during Good Morning America the next day.

Yeah, that's it. It's kinda hard to hear though. It's Jack & Charlie talking about Kate going back to the hatch. Charlie says "maybe she wanted you to tell her not to go".

Correct me if I am wrong but I thought Jack was still married  :unsure: I thought that was why he really had not gone after Kate as much.....

That makes me think... aren't the relatives of the lost ones looking for them?

    • 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
