:lol:!

I don't think so, as we never heard of the security system until that episode getting to the black rock... if its been scanning people, they would have noticed. :p

Do you think perhaps this cloud could unleash the "sickness" on people that it scans? I really don't think the French chick was nuts when she said they got sick.

that was the first time we *saw* the security system. the security system has been making noises and rushing after people since the begining of season one

Actually the first time we see the security system is in Episode 1. You need to watch it in very slow motion but you can see the black smoke fly in and destroy one of the plane engines (the one that sucks the guy in).

I didn't put a spoiler tag since.. Well it's the first bloody episode lol.

One of the creative guys who works on the show over at The Fuselage has confirmed that it isn't the smoke which hits the engine in the first episode. The engine blows up because someone gets sucked through it. The other engine is clearly struck by a piece of metal.

The security system is seen a number of times before this latest episode though you see the 'smoke' snaking through the woods in many episodes.

25 and 29 are the only numbers you see and Locke said he was changing the combination anyway.

Has anyone heard anything about the possible secret crossover event that might appear on LOST & Invasion? I heard this morning on the entertainment report that there may be a possible clue or event related to one of the shows appearing on the other show. Sounds odd. Hmm.. maybe a Dharma logo will show up in Invasion or something..

Are there any producers/directors/writers who work on both shows? Seems unlikely to be honest...

Idea, why doesn't somebody create a Lost Spoiler thread. It cuts out all the black spoiler tags I see in here.

Pros:

Nobody can complaing E.G ''Dude! You should hide that, it's a SPOILER''

No more black spoiler tags.

The freedom to say anything you want without fearing you're giving away too much.

Some people do not know the spoiler tag command. Alot do, a small minority don't

Cons:

The isn't one and 1 extra topic, it's not going to kill anybody.

My suggestion anyway, take it or leave it. :)

And the last episode. Great stuff (Y)

anybody have any theories about that smoke thing?

i dont have a theory as much as i have a suggestion to the lost creators... for the love of god, hire someone that can do some decent CGI... from the polar bear in season 1, all the way to this black smoke... it's just god aweful, not realistic in any way (yeah i know.. it's a black smoke monster, not supposed to be real) but did you see how it retracted away from eko.. omg it was horrible. And dont even get me started on the polar bear.. i thought it was someone with a bear skin rug on their back... anyone else with me?

No.. I don't thinks theres a need for that.. I'd say the spoiler tags really only need to be used during and before an episode..if people haven't made an effort to see the episode by say a day later then they deserve to be "spoiled" as otherwise it just makes discussion impossible.

So there was something like a t-rex in the first episode yeah? And something that killed the pilot.. not the same thing as our smoke monster? The smoke monster definitely makes interesting sounds though..

yeah i thought the same thing when i first saw it... seems almost like a strong field of electricity, that maybe works almost like an artificial brain... a very advanced brain at that to be able to read eko's mind

didn't john lock faces the smoke once? he lived to keep it to himself.

it was on s01s04 epesiode walkabout.

He faced it twice, first time he was ok about it all I guess, the second (episode 23) he crapped his pants. :blink:

    • Secure Boot

      By +Edouard · Posted

      Hi all. I have a seven year old Acer laptop which according to Acer website can't receive the new MS updates. This device lives in my bedroom and is purely a consumption device. No gaming, no nothing. I have followed online instructions and turned off secure boot which now gives me a green tick in W11 Security. Now, I have MWB Premium now for several years and I'm reasonably careful with my online activity with this laptop. I'm also not a gamer in any way so I'm not asking much from this laptop. Given that, am I safe to continue using this device given I've turned off secure boot? That's it, that's my question.

      Let me get this straight... It was a web interface for Gmail, so if privacy at Google wasn't concerning enough you'd be going through two companies. And their big feature was the very thing that would make people consider dumping Gmail.

    • Microsoft's fast coding model MAI-Code-1-Flash comes to Copilot Business and Enterprise

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      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.
