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


Recommended Posts

How in the world do you explain a smoke based security system? :p Some kind of "this ain't reality" excuse is the only logical one that I can think of without getting sci-fi (aka Mr Ecko using to much of his own produce)

Time to correct a repeated incorrect assumption. Ecko is NOT a 'drug lord' but a warlord. If you look back at the episode with his brother he tells him it's not his 'normal business'. It was a one time thing to raise money.

Just keeping the facts straight.... :D

does anyone have any theoretical explanation for Danielle mentioning people were 'infected' and 'sick'. Seems to have been forgotton, that's all.

Yes, maybe there is some disease on the island. Remeber how the hatch said "quarantine' and how desmond inoculated himself....

and we're supposed to assume he was telling him the truth because he was such an honest & trustworthy guy? :blink:

Just listening to lost podcast for this week and the sign on the battersea said "widmore construction" which they have told you to note it down because it will essential :D

Micheals construction company perhaps?

Oh and i think Eko was a druglord, he was probably lying to his brother.

Well nanobots are science-fact and the producers never actually discounted nanobots, they just said we were thinking about them incorrectly.

Nanobots... I dunno, personally I've never heard of them, and I don't think many other average joes would have.. so doesn't that make it "sci-fi" :p

Yes, maybe there is some disease on the island. Remeber how the hatch said "quarantine' and how desmond inoculated himself....

I get the feeling that was just vitamins or something like that.. being down a hole with no natural light can't be healtyh.

and we're supposed to assume he was telling him the truth because he was such an honest & trustworthy guy? :blink:

I would say he is just a Warlord... he said it himself... theres no business for selling drugs in Nigeria.

Next episode out in this next day, can't wait :D

Firstly, Charlie was a complete idiot to keep up the heroin after Locke gave him the chance to stop, Claire shouldn't trust him again to be honest - though those strange dreams of his :|

Sawyer seems to have become a better charachter now, although his smart arse side is still there which is good. Locke seems more mysterious by the weeks going by and where is Michael at now?

As for this idea about a disease on the island - i'm sure its a perfectly plausible idea although apart from looking shabby in the other episode 'the others' seemed to look fairly well. Thanks for the tip on the construction company! :)

Hes not actually using, he just has them around just in case he changes his mind (as far as I can tell)

Just watching the first episode again... does anyone else find it amazing how people like Jack are just sitting in the jungle and that he has no real broken bones after what could only be explained as being thrown through mid air from the beach area (not even a seat!)

What I find amazing is the huge gash that was on Jacks back , that Kate had to stitch for him , yet there was no tear/rip/blood on his shirt/jacket ?? go figure

Well after just about finishing "getting" episode 12 of Lost i have finally caught up with the Americans! I can now look at this thread without having to see spoilers that i wont be able to see for a while in Lost.

SPOILER DONT LOOOOOOKKKKKKK

Sawyer-centric episode. I think we all knew that already.

The Long con is basically Sawyer trying to con a woman out of her divorce settlement of 600 grand. He purposely reveals himself to get closer to her. He ultimately falls for her and struggles with his decision, but in the end he takes her money.

On the Island Jack puts all the marshals’ guns in the vault. When he asks locke for the combo they have a discussion about trust. Later Jack is going through sawyers stuff and takes his pain killers. They argue and sawyer sort of threatens him.

Later still Sun is taken but somehow escaped. Sawyer and Kate come to her aid she has a hood over her face and her hands are tied. She was unconscious.

Sawyer notices the hood is not the same as the one Kate had on (zeke). Wonders how she escaped blindfolded and tied. If Kate couldn’t escape zeke how could Sun.

Sawyer suggests to Kate that it was Anna. She was trying to scare people into joining her Army (which neither kate nor sawyer were asked to join).

Kate confronts Jack.

Jack asks Anna who never got a chance to explain her whereabouts when Sun awoke.

Jin asked Jack for a gun. Anna gives Kate a stare and Kate asks Sawyer to warn Locke and tell him their coming for the guns.

Sawyer warns Locke who is in the hatch alone looking through all the books. Locke asks Sawyer to press the button while Locke moves all the guns out and hides them somewhere on the island.

Jack shows up looking for the guns with Jin. Sawyer and him talk.

Later that night on the beach Jack finds locke and starts arguing. “Where are the guns”

Locke wants to know who gets one how many are we giving out he says he wont tell Jack where they are. Suddenly shots ring out. Sawyer walks out of the Jungle with a rifle.

Now he’s in charge if someone wants a gun you have to go to him. Great dialogue in this scene. He later meets up with Charlie who turns out to be the one who took Sun. Sawyer gives him a statue as a reward. But Charlie didn’t do it for the drugs he did it because he wanted Locke to be humiliated and made to look like a fool.

One other thing that I left out is that Bernard is a Dentist (so what does that meant?) And he gave Hurley the hand-held radio he had when he heard boone. Sayid hooks up this radio and a supped up antenna. They stumble across a Big band radio station playing 40’s music.

However the frequency Sayid is on can pick up something that could have traveled a thousand mile because the frequency bounces off the ionisphere. I forgot how he phrased it but Hurley comments that it could be from anywhere or Another Time even then he dismisses the thought. They are definitely teasing us there. Hope I didn’t forget anything major.

    • Screamer is 50% off on Steam, making it £24.99 here in the UK: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2814990/Screamer/ You might remember the series from the mid 90s / early 2000s, this new game is also by Milestone who created the older games.
    • U.S. partially reverses Anthropic AI ban for Mythos but keeps Fable 5 off the market by Karthik Mudaliar Anthropic says that the U.S. government has finally allowed it to restore Claude Mythos 5. But of course, there's a catch. The rollout is again for a limited set of U.S. organizations that operate and defend critical infrastructure. The company announced this in a post on X (formerly Twitter). This does not mean that Anthropic's latest frontier models are back to normal availability. Fable 5, which was a tuned version of Mythos 5 for public release, remains unavailable. Anthropic said that it is still working with the government to expand Mythos 5 access and make Fable 5 available again, but there's no timeline. Reports from Bloomberg and Reuters say that this decision actually came through a letter from the U.S. Commerce Department. According to Reuters, this would allow more than 100 companies and institutions access to Mythos 5. Reuters also reported that Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick’s letter removes the need for export licenses for approved companies’ non-US citizen employees, as well as Anthropic’s own non-US citizen employees, while restrictions remain for organizations outside the approved list. Anthropic isn't alone with this kind of controlled rollout. OpenAI's newest model family, GPT 5.6, was announced just yesterday, but isn't available for everyone yet. In its announcement, OpenAI also said that access to these models is initially limited to a select group of trusted partners and organizations, with broader access planned later this year. Both of these cases show that frontier AI launches are no longer just ordinary product releases and more like slow and vetted deployments shaped heavily by the U.S. government.

    • Microsoft Weekly: 5 years of Windows 11, more support for Windows 10, and expensive Xbox by Taras Buria This week's news recap is here, with Microsoft giving Windows 10 one more year of support, Windows 11 getting new taskbar settings in preview updates, Steam Machine prices, higher XBOX prices, and many more. Quick links: Windows 10 and 11 Windows Insider Program Updates are available Reviews are in Gaming news Great deals to check Windows 11 and Windows 10 Here, we talk about everything happening around Microsoft's latest operating system in the Stable channel and preview builds: new features, removed features, controversies, bugs, interesting findings, and more. And, of course, you may find a word or two about older versions. On June 24, 2026, Windows 11 turned five. The controversial operating system was released half a decade ago, and during these years, it received a fair share of criticism (such as poor Windows Search and its web results), which Microsoft is now actively addressing with regular preview updates that deliver missing, long-requested features. With Windows 12 nowhere to be seen on the horizon, it will be interesting to see if Windows 11 can stay on the market for as long as Windows 10 did. Speaking of Windows 10 and staying on the market, this week, Microsoft quietly prolonged the Extended Security Updates program for Windows 10, allowing users to get one more year of security updates if they do not want or cannot upgrade to Windows 11. Finally, Microsoft released this month's non-security update for Windows 11. KB5095093 arrived with a traditionally long list of new features, including point-in-time restore, new Windows Update settings, quieter Windows Widgets, new accessibility features, File Explorer updates and performance improvements, and more. Windows Insider Program Here is what Microsoft released for Windows Insiders this week: Builds Canary Channel Build 29617.1000 and build 28120.2374 These builds bring new accessibility features, new Windows Update controls, audio improvements, and more. Dev Channel Build 26300.8758 This build includes redesigned taskbar settings, File Explorer improvements, and more. Beta Channel Build 26220.8754 and build 28020.2366 This small update fixes the OneDrive bug in File Explorer, tweaks system sounds in dark mode, and more. Updates are available This section covers software, firmware, and other notable updates (released and coming soon) delivering new features, security fixes, improvements, patches, and more from Microsoft and third parties. If you use AI-powered browsing history search in Microsoft Edge, the company has bad news. A new update on the Microsoft 365 Roadmap revealed that Microsoft is discontinuing the feature. Despite using on-device models for natural search, some users found it creepy, claiming that Microsoft lacks trust in features like this. While the ability to find pages without using 100% precise words may sound cool, customers argued that it was nothing but another feature to bloat the browser with more AI. Good riddance? PowerToys received several updates this week. For one, Microsoft released version 0.100.1 with several improvements and bug fixes for the recently arrived version 0.100. A couple of days later, Microsoft dropped another update, this time fixing memory leaks in Command Palette Dock. In addition, the company is working on a new module that will make it easier to switch between windows within one application using the Alt + ` shortcut. The new module should make it to the stable release somewhere soon. Here are other updates and releases you may find interesting: New Ventoy update adds Windows 11's mandatory update support and more Microsoft updates Visual Studio Code with chat cost tracking and multi-agent chats Microsoft is building an AI datacenter that "uses less water than a fast food restaurant" Microsoft adds new AI study and teaching tools for free to Microsoft 365 Education Researchers claim Microsoft's quantum breakthrough is flawed by basic Python errors Microsoft is bringing a much-needed Recap app to Teams Microsoft's fast coding model, MAI-Code-1-Flash, comes to Copilot Business and Enterprise Here are the latest drivers and firmware updates released this week: AMD Radeon Software 26.6.2 with FSR 4.1 support for RDNA 3 graphics card. However, the driver contained a bug, which prevented installations on Windows 10 PCs. AMD fixed that with a quick hotfix update. Reviews are in Here is the hardware and software we reviewed this week This week, Steven Parker published several reviews. He shared his experience with the Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe, a high-quality sound card with a headphone amp, low-latency communications, great build quality, and DSD256. However, it is on the pricier side of the spectrum, and it lacks EMI shielding. Check out the full review here. The second review is about the TerraMaster F4-425 Pro, an octa-core Intel NAS with a stand-out feature: built-in AI (OpenClaw). We also published a few Hands On reviews, which you can view below: We check out the SKG PS700 Neck Massager SKG Hand Massager with Heat OS500 hands on Hands-on with BOOX Tappy: cute little reading accessory Hands on with the ProtoArc EM25 affordable ergonomic mouse On the gaming side Learn about upcoming game releases, Xbox rumors, new hardware, software updates, freebies, deals, discounts, and more. If you plan to purchase a new Xbox, it's time to act now. This week, Microsoft announced yet another Xbox price increase. Starting August 1, 2026, all Xbox Series X|S models with 512 GB of storage will cost $100 more. As for the 1TB models, they are going up in price by a whopping $150. Finally, Microsoft is discontinuing the 2TB Xbox Series X. To make up for that, Microsoft announced a few programs to make its consoles more accessible. Those include BNPL, interest-free financing, pre-owned consoles, certified refurbished consoles, and more. Valve also shared some not-so-welcome news. The company has finally announced prices of the upcoming Steam Machine console, and if you plan to buy one, get ready to spend a whopping $1,049 on the 512GB configuration. The Steam Machine is now available for preorder, with shipments scheduled for June 29, 2026. Grand Theft Auto VI also received its official price tag. Rockstar Games announced that the long-anticipated game will launch at $79.99 for the base edition and $99.99 for the ultimate edition. The latter includes an exclusive collection of premium vehicles, weapons, apparel, and action threaded across all aspects of Jason and Lucia’s story." Those who preorder the game will get extra bonuses, including a Vintage Vice City Pack of cosmetic items as well as a free month of GTA+. NVIDIA announced new games for its GeForce NOW streaming service. Those include Dark Scrolls, SAND: Raiders of Sophie, Deer & Boy, EMPULSE, and more. Steam is running its annual Summer Sale, during which you can purchase plenty of various games with big discounts. It runs until July 9, so in case you missed it, you can still get some games at a lower price. Also, you can get two games for free in the Epic Games Store, plus more deals are available in this week's Weekend PC Game Deals issue. This link will take you to other issues of the Microsoft Weekly series. You can also support Neowin by registering for a free member account or subscribing for extra member benefits, along with an ad-free tier option.
