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


Recommended Posts

not in the arrow station its where they sit sawyer and co thats the doors down...all thats left is the shell...thats how im reading into it...thing is arrow isnt one of the 6 so its gotta be pre-dharma station planning :wacko:

hell that would make perfect sense considering the chance that station had the "incident", then it was closed down and they started over and succeeded(i guess)and made the 6 stations we know now.

this is becoming a joke now. they can't just show 1 episode and then a break and then another episode and then another break. they're trying to make the series last longer but this has got to be turning people off of the show - not me, but less patient people. i'm glad we don't have this many (if any) crazy breaks here.

I know, it's especially frustrating for my wife and I, since we watched one episode to begin with, got hooked, then borrowed the season one box set and downloaded the season two episodes up until we were caught up with the current episode. Watched 30 or so episodes in the matter of a week-and-a-halfs time. Now that we're caught up...seems like there is a new episode every few weeks at best.

I've read that the writers intended to have this story end; it would have a finite run and end after 3-4 years. After the success of 'Lost' so far, CBS stated they want the story open-ended, so it could continue indefinately. That absolutely sucks for a story intended to have an end, especially one packed with as many details as 'Lost'. I have a feeling we'll be seeing more fluff stories and episodes spread out like this.

Sorry, but CBS has absolutely no control over ABC's shows. :)

Even if Lost stays on the air for longer than the intended 4-5 seasons, when the final season arrives the writes should give us a finite ending. Don't worry...

Surface fans, now... they have something to worry about. :-/

Most shows do this. It isn't just Lost, the only reason we're paying more attention to it with Lost is because Lost is more popular, so the breaks get more attention.

Every episode of Lost is edited in that 'to be continued...' style, rather than a stand-alone episode. So you really notice the gaps between new episodes because you want to know what happens next and aren't satisfied with the episode alone.

However, Lost does seem to take more breaks than the average TV show. The show uses a lot of special effects (not all of them are obivous) that need to be applied in HDTV quality, which takes a bit of post-production time.

Yeah that does make sense, its because its not like Family guy for example where there is 1 episode and thats it but Lost is continuous

4-5 seasons???????

I want this to end this season.... Surely even tv exec's must know to go out on a high...

Lost doesnt have a strong enough storyline to last 4-5 seasons in my opinion, 2 is plenty....

maybe there are plenty of surprises

you don't know the storyline or whats to come

do you know Prison Break? well writers have that planned for 3-4 seasons..if they can do that why can't Lost which has a broader set of directions and content?

    • 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
