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


Recommended Posts

A while back I read a book by Michael Crichton called "Prey", in which a swarm of nanomachines went rouge and were killing people and such. A very good book, and in it the swarm of nanomachines resembled a large cloud, which would swarm around it's victim and suffocate/tear them up.

One of the ways they fought off the nanomachines was to use electromagnets on them, where the magnetic pulse would render them dead.

what if ( and a big what if at that... ) the cloud is a swarm of nanomachines? I cant remember if it was speculation or mentioned in the show that the machinery in the compound is electormagnetic, but what if they are imputting the code at measured intervals to keep the machines from pulsing with an electromagnetic wave? It could be sort of a fail-safe, in case whatever experiment is being conducted goes rouge and nobody is left to enter the numbers, the pulse would hopefully kill the nanomachines.

bah, just talking out the opposite orifice here. Not looking for agreement, just voicing my thoughts. ;)

TYT

It would make more sense if the computer in the hatch only controls the e.m. wave which is used as a containment method. The nanotechnology could be from some unknown source being studied by whoever.

Still the that theory is like way out there though.

note on the kraftkost site.

the front page has now changed!!!

wtf?!?...talk about cash in from the show :rofl: so dharma want you to pay maybe their experiments have cost them dear :laugh:

Lol I would watch out.. Why would an official site charge you $30 to gain access? It sounds like some scam trying to profit from Lost fans.

the question is whats beyond there that we dont already know....lol :whistle:

Ok.. so the EMP could destroy the monster (in your theory which I like :p)... how is it an "incident" if they don't enter the numbers? Why get them to do it at all? Why give them the control to destroy their important security system? That'd mean that the security system is protecting them from something else?

Mmm, sounds very dodgy..

Sorry to spoil the party guys but the show's producers have said the 'smoke' isn't nanomachines.

I'll get the ball rolling again then:

Theory: The thing which killed the pilot wasnt the smoke.

FYI, the Kraftkost site is NOT an official viral site from ABC according to the folks over on the Lost Forums.

I would HIGHLY doubt ABC would be charging people $30 to look at some website.

On topic, it was suggested that Locke and Eko might be brothers. Hence the reason Locke saw the plane crash, and when he first saw eko they stared at each other pretty strange. Some suggest that Locke's dad went on a "Walkabout" in Nigera and hooked up with some Nigeran lady, and had Locke and Eko.

Dumb ass comment how can his father have children incase you didnt notice hes a male.

weve seen lockes mother anyways.

Err, I'll resist telling you about the birds and the bees... but I think hes suggesting that his father got it on with someone in Nigeria, thus fathering Ecko.

But, that doesn't make any sense, and how would they just "know" anyway..

If Locke dies I can see so many not watching this show anymore.

Hell yeah, I'd be ****ed. Locke's one of my favorite characters. Although I suppose if Eko was in a lot of scenes like Locke it wouldn't be as bad, but it wouldn't be the same without Locke. Locke's the only one who makes any progress doing anything on the island.

perfect reason to kill him off!!

personally, i tihnk we may see another ig character killed off, 1 u wouldnt expect.

maybe jack? not seen him alot recently./.....

    • Microsoft kills AI-powered history search feature in Edge by Usama Jawad In June 2025, Microsoft began rolling out AI-powered history search functionality with Edge 138. The idea was simple: allow customers to use natural language phrases and synonyms to find their desired history items rather than matching keywords exactly. Although the company had already rolled out this capability in a phased manner, it has now decided to cancel it. In an update on its Microsoft 365 Roadmap, Microsoft has announced that it has decided not to move forward with AI-powered history search. The company has not detailed the exact reasoning behind this move, but it has apologized to customers for the inconvenience. The move is rather interesting as it seemingly could have improved user productivity. Edge users wouldn't have to worry about typos or exact keywords, and just focus on what they were trying to locate in their browser history. Microsoft had also assured users that an on-device AI model would be leveraged for this functionality, and no data would be sent to the cloud. IT admins also had the ability to control its availability through the EdgeHistoryAISearchEnabled policy. When the feature began rolling out last year, many of our readers called it creepy, noting that they couldn't trust Microsoft to keep their data on their device. Others also questioned its usefulness, saying that it's simply a way for Microsoft to insert more AI bloat into its products. Although the Redmond tech giant had stated that it will be more mindful about surfacing Copilot features in Windows 11 apps, we later discussed how this is mostly a rebranding exercise rather than an actual axing of AI functionalities. Indeed, a Microsoft executive later emphasized how they want to reshape Windows for the agentic AI era. That said, it does seem like at least AI-powered Edge history search isn't a part of that vision.
    • For you to jump on and defend your sweetheart? I agree, it didn't.
    • Not likely, of course, that we will see routine citizenship checks as they only involve compliance with existing federal voting laws already on the books for decades. This seems a non-issue entirely. Only fools would have the government rush headlong into an AI program few can understand or predict, or even debug...
