I was looking at the orginal Video and she was reading the History of Herodotus.

When Searching For PI and Loki and Lorelei I camae across this link;

http://www.womens-way.com/WEMS-5.pdf

Which states it is a guide through history of the lost goddess

Lorelei and Loki have various pages listed but are listed together at least on one page-Herodotus is also listed in this book and PI is also listed in here in regards to the numerical value and worshipping

Maybe somebody she look at the book she was looking at (which is available in Penguin classic books....)

I know pi is a mathematical ratio just like phi is (they are not the same number). I didn't know pi was associated with any worship. Did some search on Herodutus; didn't pursue further than the related histories of Persia (Iran).

would it be bad for me to suggest to archive this thread and start a new one??? after getting in to work an hour ago .. i've just read the last 20 pages... and we're at the same spot.. pretty much because people are restating the same thing over and over.

i dont meant to push anyone's buttons and dont meant ot be rude or anything .. but we should have something like a wiki.. on the first page of the thread ( like we do already) and have all the info that we have gathered there so far on it. Also writing that if the people are new to the game that they should read this thread first.

Um...we do have a Wiki just like you are talking about.

Please, let's just keep with this one thread and not set up multiple ones.

Agreed, however i would like to have the thread starter update the first page with all information so far...

Edit: PM sent to thread starter with request to compile information. This is up to Rob if he has the time to do this...

That's a good idea, of course (thanks for PM'ing Rob)...but maybe it would be good if he edited the top of that 1st thread email to point people to the VanishingPoint Wiki as well. That way, if someone didn't want to trudge through all the pages of this thread, they could catch up on the Wiki and then jump to say the last 10 pages here.

I think it would help Rob (or me if he doesn't have the time) if you could compile the information we need adding into there, and post it here / pm it to me or Rob, and we can just throw it in, to save US from having to trawl through all the pages :p

Seriously though, it's amazing watching you guys work, and I have trouble keeping up with, and track of, all the things you keep finding.

Vanishing Point is a Microsoft/AMD project to celebrate the release of Windows Vista and Office 2007, that is why all the prizes involce AMD powerd computers etc

I guess I don't understand what AMD gets out of this. Why AMD? Why not Intel? I don't see a real connection between MS and AMD.

Hey, I don't remember seeing anything about this (please forgive me for not reviewing 190 pages of dialogue) but on the AMD homepage there's a black box with the following characters:

rpf6ncada34wget32-84

kvezz1x6cfp0egnyvm32

z3o6qj-o3ddwn3;u-loe

Was this something preliminary that we're past or is it something new? Again, forgive me if this has been discussedNevermind - just looked at the first post.

Has anyone else gotten a phone call with five beeps? It may have nothing to do with the game, but the whole five thing makes me wonder. I was out of the office yesterday. Upon my return today, I checked my messages and there was a message that was left that simply played five beeps. They were longer beeps, perhaps just shy of a second in length and they were about 2 seconds apart.

I'm just curious if anyone else has gotten this phone call or if I'm just becoming so caught up in this game that I am reading too much into things.

Enjoy,

McP

loreley/lorelei/murmuring rock has loads of filtered results if you do a microsoft search for them, or even a live search on microsoft.com... so there must be some pages with loreley on them, google hasn't picked them up though so its evidently recent...

also, look at box 3... the text "memories fade" has quick flashes some text and says "people disappear" (which is the text for week 4) very briefly... don't know what it means if anything, but its a bit strange. it might help someone out...

edit: if you don't know how to do a live search for just microsoft.com, just put this in: "site:microsoft.com loreley". the same query works for google, but live has way more filtered results.

Hey - checked the (possible fake) lokivanishes.com site again. It says "loki is right in front of you-split your monitor and find her there"

Don't know how to split my monitor or if this is even legit - just thought I'd let everyone know

Nice! Looking for video overlay.

    • Apple finally brings the slider for Liquid Glass and many other changes

      By Aditya Tiwari · Posted

      Apple finally brings the slider for Liquid Glass and many other changes by Aditya Tiwari Apple kicked off the official live stream of the WWDC 2026 annual developer event. The company began its latest wave of announcements with changes to the controversial Liquid Glass design language, which debuted last year across Apple's entire software ecosystem. A lot of people didn't like Liquid Glass when it first arrived on iPhone and other devices last year. The devices were plagued with transparency issues and whatnot. While Apple improved things over the year, it has now added a new Liquid Glass slider that lets you switch the transparency from clear to opaque. The sidebars now expand to the edge of the window. When you scroll the UI sideways, the refraction continues beneath the sidebar rather than being cut off at the boundary. Moreover, Apple has changed the way Liquid Glass is rendered across the system. There is a separation between different layers, which makes buttons in the toolbar stand out from the background. Apple said it "deeply appreciates" the feedback it received from users and has made adjustments to Liquid Glass.
    • Helium Browser 0.13.1.1

      By cork1958 · Posted

      FWIW, I've been using Helium on Linux and Windows since the first time it was mentioned here. Actually, maybe a day or 3 before, as I searched for it when I saw it mentioned on the MX Linux forums. Haven't had a single issue on either OS. Not bad for a beta.
    • U.S. delegation throws away all burner phones and gifts from China before takeoff

      By AsherGZ · Posted

      See up until a few years ago y'all could get away with simply denying your war crimes, pretending it never happened. Unfortunately for you, it's the 2020s and Israel's genocide has been livestreamed in real time. You have to be dumber than a rock to think anyone still believes your propaganda. See the cat is already out of the bag. The world already knows who you are so do yourself a favor and just drop the facade. Bet it gets real tiring keep track of all the lies. Take some inspiration from Israeli ministers who boast on live TV they like massacring civilians. Every zionist accusation is after all a confession.
    • Microsoft making much needed change to Windows 11, 10 Patch Tuesday security updates

      By QuantumBigfoot · Posted

      He's just reporting what Microsoft posted. https://msmessagecenter.com/MC1381119 It just means that Windows Defender updates will no longer be bundled into the monthly Cumulative Windows security update and will now be a separate download. They'll still be on Microsoft update of course but now they can be released faster.
    • Apple announces iOS 27 with no changes to the list of supported iPhones

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Apple announces iOS 27 with no changes to the list of supported iPhones by Taras Buria At WWDC 2026 in Cupertino, Apple announced iOS 27, the next mobile operating system for compatible iPhones. The update focuses on tweaking and improving last year's iOS 26, particularly in areas like app launch time, Liquid Glass design, and more. Additionally, Apple has reworked Apple Maps with a significantly enhanced Flyover view for a much more realistic view. Apple also promises better performance, smarter search, new Health features, new parental controls, and more. The most important part is that iOS 27 is compatible with all iPhones that can run iOS 26. That means that even the seven-year-old iPhone 11 can run iOS 27 (supposedly better than iOS 26). iOS 27 will be available this Fall, with the first developer betas expected later today. You can follow the live stream here.
