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


Recommended Posts

did anybody else notice the american soldier that gives sayid money at the end looks a lot like that "other" guy that talked to jack?

Nah, nothing like.

Well, god damnit, I want answers! Instead I get an episode where were still not 100% sure if hes an other (well you know ;)), and nothing happened with the count down (well, the world didn't end). :(

Looks like I was wrong about it not resetting though :blush:

Why Egyptian? Its something completely out of left field..

I just watched the Preview again, the Clocks are different! Did they do that on purpose?

It sounded like a door opening and a generator switching on when it reached 0, weren't they snooping around in the hatch in episodes 2,3,4,5 to find anything i swear they found something but couldn't be opened!

I'm guessing there are multiple clocks in the hatch, so they can check at all times what the countdown is at.

I'm sure showing a different clock was just the writers being a little sneaky.

No, if your thinking about the time Jack is under ground and they see steam, then that was just the showers. The only door that can't be opened is the one with the magnets behind it..but then thats not really a door is it?

There is a passage way that is sealed off with cement. They tried to get around it buy failed. Then the subject was dropped. Im sure they is much more undiscovered in that complex.

I thought the epidsode was good. Do not like where Jack character is going. Its ok to torture someone he is angry at but not another? Really hope they start giving a few answers instead of giving more questions.

Last week my Tivo broke. Just got the RFO a few hours before the show came on...whoot.

Yeah, i was on about the Magnet one, could be something to do with that maybe?

B. F. Skinner: rewatched s02e03 "orientation" today and b f skinner was mentioned by the dharma guy... looked it up. reinforces the idea they're all in an psychological experiment - truman show, but for research... with the OTHERS watching they're behaviour... after all, they said the others were ALWAYS watching.

also.. what do people think about walt's backwards talking. "they're coming and they're close" and "dont push the button, the button is bad".

and... could this be locke in the video?! was the 'LOST SPOILED' on the right track with Locke being the leader dude?

Who did Jack torture he was angry at?

I don't recall anyone, but with Sawyer last year, he was trying to save a life.

I think Jack's Duty is to save people, and he felt he had to save this man's life.

He don't know whether the man is the others or not, but have him tortured to death is not comfortable with Jack.

also, from wikipedia:

WALT THEORIES

* He was kidnapped because he was meant to be on the section of the "Accelerated Remote Viewing Training". His ability couldn't improve at "The Swan Section" so he had to leave. Flight 815 was just his convenient ride to the area. His appearence to Shannon will be one of his accomplishments at the training facility.

* It may not be that he killed the bird, so much as summoned it. In "real life" birds often die flying into plate glass windows. This may hold for the Polar Bears on the island as well. He is likely not responsible for them being there, but was able to call out to them because they were there.

* In addition to possible animal empathy, Walt has exhibited the ability to manipulate probabilities. This is exhibited by the fact that when playing Backgammon he always gets the exact rolls he needs. This may be further exhibited during an argument with Michael when Vincent is still missing. Michael says (need exact quote) "I'll go find Vincent after it stops raining." Walt says (again need exact quote), "Really?" and two seconds later it stops raining. As if he willed it so - perhaps changing the probability of precipitation to something lower than 100%.

* Another point on probability manipulation. Locke was teaching Walt how to throw a knife. Locke tells him to visualize the knife hitting the target, he does and bullseye. By visualizing he manipulated his chance of hitting the target perfectly to 100%.

I don't recall anyone, but with Sawyer last year, he was trying to save a life.

Well this is still torture even if he is saving a life or not. Maybe Sahid is trying to save the people the others kidnapped. After all they are trying to prepare an army right? Jack is not a good leader, just like his X said, he just needs to fix things.

The previews for next week look interesting. Could it be that they are supposed to find these things?

Maybe that sound of powering up was a generator when the timer reached to 0. And that generator was going make a massive electromagnetic pulse causing anything electronic within a certain radius to crash...say a plane full of people.

Anyone notice the slight smile or smirk on that Henry Gale's face after Jack had pulled Sayid off him? I'd say he's definitely related to the others in some way..

I noticed it. Let Sayid back in for round two I say. Now they have to feed him, take care of him. Waste of resources.

what i dont understand is how Kate's dad was there when Sayid was arrested? in the episode "What Kate Did" you see Sayid being taken into custody on the TV behind Kate when shes talking to her dad. He made it too the middle east to interrogate sayid that quickly?

as far as the "other" goes... by his face at the end, he must be one of them. but i dont think this was accidental. i think he was meant to be caught, maybe even Roussou is somehow involved. the others wanted to put someone on the inside of the survivors group again... how would that help them and why would they do it? i havnt figured that out yet. heh It just seems to weird to me that after all this explaining about how the others "dont leave tracks" and are very smooth and secretive, that one would accidently be caught

its getting really interesting seeing kate as well on that photo...and with the "cause to die"....maybe you sacrifice your life when you go down the hatch or working for dharma is a life cause....arrghhhh!!! bring on next episode!!! :p

i can't believe someone actually thought he was telling the truth (in real life...i can understand in the show...but how someone watching the show can think he was telling the truth is beyond me)

Its TV, all acting. The chances are 50-50 and the writers determine the outcome later on, nobody knows the writer's minds

I thought Sayid's theory was very interesting. The part where he said that he didn't feel guilty.

I mean, he has been doing this for years. If anyone knows, it's got to be him!

Have to admit though, that for a moment I felt like Sayid was wrong. When he was getting insane, and beating the guy repeatedly. But after that, when he made that look to Sayid, and when Sayid was talking to Charlie, I was convinced again. :D

Where did you hear about the Walt backward talking?

I noticed it. Let Sayid back in for round two I say. Now they have to feed him, take care of him. Waste of resources.

When they locked that guy in I was thinking if he is one of the others, whats there to say he does'nt know of a hatch of airduct where he can escape from?

    • 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.
    • >Improved system sounds when using Windows in dark mode. The story behind that bug would be an interesting one.
