I'm not talking about 1954 others. I'm talking about the freaking Others in the Temple. After Ben made Richard take everyone to the Temple to be safe. Got it? Those Others in the Temple are moving through time with the Losties and Science group.

In ep1 when the first flash occurred Locke was with Richard and a bunch of others, after the flash it was only Locke...

Oh right. I see the flaw in my argument. Alright, never mind what I've been saying. Making theories with time travel is annoying :p

Hmm, that makes it even more confusing. So, the time travel only affects non-natives.

Like I said you cannot be certain of your theory. It could be either way, as Daniel mentioned. That is my evidence.

Juliet said to Daniel, "So, that's why the camp is gone, the Island is moving through time".

To which, Daniel replied with, "either the Island is or we are".

Actually if i remember correctly a few (or more) pages back there is a snippet from an interview with one of the writers that confirms its both

Its 'a little of both', per one of the pod/vodcasts.

There are most likely rules, its my theory that whatever timeline the Island moves to, the present Island will always trump the moving Island.

So the present island trumps the moving island. We can go with that. However, then logically, for all intents and purposes, the island isn't moving, if the present ALWAYS supersedes it. The only place it would belong is the place it left. Since we know it doesn't return to that place in space/time, it must 'trump' the present island at some point for your theory to be correct.

I'm not talking about 1954 others. I'm talking about the freaking Others in the Temple. After Ben made Richard take everyone to the Temple to be safe. Got it? Those Others in the Temple are moving through time with the Losties and Science group.

Not talking about 1954. Go check out 'There's No Place Like Home... Part 2'

Ah, but its not only non-natives. Some of the Others were brought to the island, like Juliet, and she moves, while the others don't. Also, its been strongly hinted that Charlotte is an Other (born on the island), and she moves, albeit with the side effects she is experiencing.

With that stated, there are rules to which we're not aware of.

I don't know if its 'rules' as much as to this being something gone wrong.

The island wants the O6+1 (maybe 2 if you count Lapidus) back, and can't 'settle' on a time/place until it has them. Thats why its jumping all over time instead of just 'moving'.

Well Juliet isn't really a native, she was brought to the Island only three years before the 815 crash.

Right, but we have to assume that other members of the Others were in a similar situation to Juliet and they didn't move.

Also, the people that the Others took from 815 we have to assume are not moving either.

I doubt it, since we didn't see any of them join Locke after the first shift - we can assume they are all natives. Juliet was just a requirement needed by Ben to fix the pregnancy problem. Since we don't know the rules about becoming a native, let's assume its the basic one - being born on the Island. If Ben were to have stayed on the Island, we would have know for sure if he could have been a native or not and know the rules on the qualification to become a native.

Also, the people that the Others took from 815 we have to assume are not moving either.

It's just three of them. They are most likely moving with Miles, Daniel, Charlotte, Juliet and the Losties. We might meet up with them in the up coming episodes, or they might have been given instructions to find the Temple and stay there until Locke fixes the problem.

Someone please to shed some light on this one for me: why is Desmond "an exception" to the rules ?

Well, after the explosion of the Swan station, something happened to him. He started predicting the inevitable death of Charlie, which later turned to him traveling back in time for short periods of time. We found out the same thing happened with George Minkowski.

So, he's most likely the exception because of the explosion.

Still arguing about Time Travel? :p

The thing about Time Travel, is it's really complex and Unknown, so DON'T try to act like you know it all.

I'll say this, I agree that Charlotte is Nose-bleeding, because she is born on the island and she(it)'s moving.

Time travel of a fictional TV Show != the possibility of Time travel in reality, okay?

We can discuss and make theories about it all we want. You can, however, go back making your little retarded celebrity threads if you don't want us putting the puzzles together here...

The rules may have to do with integration with the Others or having been accepted by Jacob while maintaining a coexistence with the Others. Heck, at this point we still don't know why they were taking select people in the first place, because if they wanted everyone there would have been more than enough Others to have taken them all.

It's just three of them. They are most likely moving with Miles, Daniel, Charlotte, Juliet and the Losties. We might meet up with them in the up coming episodes, or they might have been given instructions to find the Temple and stay there until Locke fixes the problem.

Actually they took a lot more than three. Anna Lucia mentioned the Others taking nine more, or something to that effect, and that was just from the Tailies.

Ethan and Goodwin were sent to find information about the Losties and report back. From those lists they created, the Others took only the people that would fit in their community or show less resistance.

It appears its only two more Tailies, #8 and #9 from this list: http://lostpedia.wikia.com/wiki/Background_cast/Others

I'm sure none of the Others died who were with Richard during the last two episodes of Season 4 and #8/#9 didn't appear with Locke, so I guess you are right. An acceptance of living on the Island is required to be a native. Juliet and the Losties never wanted to be on the Island. Though this theory falls apart because Miles, Daniel and Charlotte chose to stay on the Island. :/ I don't think its a Jacob thing because Locke believes he exists and accepts him and he still time jumped...

Gonna have to go against Lostpedia yet again. In Season 2, Episode 6, at around the 23rd minute mark:

They came the first night that we got here. They took three of us. Nothing happened for two weeks, then they came back. They took nine more. They're smart, and they're animals, and they could be anywhere at any time. Now we're moving through the jungle - their jungle - just so you can save your little hick friend over here. And if you think that one gun and one bullet is going to stop them - think again. So shut your mouth and keep moving.

That last part with Locke definitely defeats that theory, ah well.

I believe Charlotte said "I will stay... Just for a little while, We can get the next boat" or something along them lines, Daniel didn't really want to stay, He had to go back because the boat blew up

I'm going to assume they are dead. A lot of the Others killings happened during Seasons 1-4. Either way, if they are all alive or not, they have become 'special' enough to remain with Richard and the Others during the jump. Because #8 and #9 were with Richard at the end of Season 4.

I believe Charlotte said "I will stay... Just for a little while, We can get the next boat" or something along them lines, Daniel didn't really want to stay, He had to go back because the boat blew up

Nope,

I don't think Daniel really wanted to leave, he was just obligated to because he needed bring the other Losties to the right coordinate to see the ship.

Some people are actually using "IS" instead of "MIGHT', thinking they HAVE the right theories. Chill out people, it's just a show, let's have some FUN :D

Exactly.

Some people really need to Chill out!

You could be wrong. You could be right.

Stop acting like "I am right you are wrong" over these Time Travel stuff on this show!

Make theories IS fine, but the minute you act like you are right, that just really Arrogant!

Stay out of the conversations if you don't like them. Yes, neptune and I disagreed on things, but we didn't get upset at each other or anything like you are insinuating.

Just because you get confused by things doesn't mean others do.

    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation

      So how did you solve the problem? Disabling Secure Boot isn’t a solution.
    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation

      By rseiler · Posted

      Another devilish issue surrounding these certificates is what can happen with old, unsuspecting PCs that nevertheless have Secure Boot enabled. In my case, it was a Dell with a 3rd-gen Core chip (so about 13 years old). As of the last few weeks, it was suddenly BSOD'g within about 5 minutes of booting. Turns out it was because of MS's "Secure-Boot-Update" scheduled task, which is scheduled to run 5 minutes after login. It's explained in gory detail here (this is not my post, but it was where I found the answer), but the short version is that this legacy system would need fairly elaborate, manual certificate intervention since MS's automatic cert update method cannot work. How to do that is linked late in the thread. https://www.bleepingcomputer.c...od-caused-by-scheduled-task Secure Boot wasn't at all important for this particular PC, so I disabled it to be done with the problem.

      Winhance 26.06.12 by Razvan Serea Winhance is an open-source Windows enhancement utility designed to help users debloat, optimize, and customize Windows 10 and 11. It provides a user-friendly interface for removing unwanted apps, legacy components, and optional features safely, giving you more control over your system. With Winhance, you can improve performance, reduce clutter, and enhance privacy without the need for a clean install. Beyond basic debloating, Winhance offers extensive optimization tools. Users can tweak power plans, adjust gaming and performance settings, control notifications, and manage Windows Update behavior.

New AI privacy groups have been added for Windows AI, Microsoft Edge AI, and Microsoft Office AI, giving users clearer control over AI-related telemetry and feature usage. In addition, new settings in Gaming & Performance introduce AI taskbar pin toggles, options to remove AI apps, and controls for AI services and scheduled tasks, allowing users to better manage how AI components run in the background and appear in the system. For advanced users and IT professionals, Winhance integrates WIMUtil, a tool for creating custom Windows installation ISOs with automated configuration. You can generate autounattend.xml files, inject drivers, and apply your chosen Winhance settings automatically during installation. Most changes are non-destructive and reversible, with clear explanations in the GUI. Whether you’re optimizing a single PC or managing multiple systems, Winhance delivers a faster, cleaner, and highly personalized Windows experience. The Winhance.Installer.exe includes both Installable and Portable versions during setup. Winhance supports both Windows 10 and Windows 11 64-bit versions.

Winhance 26.06.12 changelog: Features Builder Mode — build a Winhance config file or autounattend.xml without changing anything on the PC you're sitting at. Flip the new mode switcher to Builder, set everything the way you want it, and save the result as a Winhance config or an autounattend file ready for deployment on other machines. Sponsors & Supporters page — the exit donation dialog is gone. In its place, an in-app page (heart icon or the More menu) recognizes the businesses and individual supporters who keep Winhance free. It works offline and is fully localized. Change History — Winhance now keeps a receipt of everything it does. ChangeHistory.txt records every setting change (before and after values) and every app install or removal, with clear headers for config imports and bulk actions. Open it from the More menu. Hebrew language support — Winhance is now available in 29 languages. New Explorer customizations: desktop icon visibility toggles, This PC folder visibility, an icon cache size setting, and automatic thumbnail cache cleanup. New "All apps view" setting for the redesigned Windows 11 Start menu, and the Windows 11 system tray icons setting is now a dropdown with more control. App-local UI zoom — press Ctrl +/-/0 or use Ctrl+MouseWheel to scale the whole app, just like a browser. New External Apps: EA app, Ubisoft Connect, Battle.net, Rockstar Games Launcher, PowerShell, and Helium Browser. Bug Fixes Layouts no longer clip when the Windows text size slider is set above 100%. Accessibility: Narrator now announces setting names on toggles and dropdowns, previously unlabeled buttons are labeled, and progress updates are announced. Silent updates now respect your custom install location instead of reverting to the default. Cancel in Review Mode no longer clears your app selections. OneNote is now detected correctly for Win32 Click-to-Run installs. Clean Start Menu applies more reliably by also writing the group policy path. WinGet errors are no longer silent — error details now show in the terminal output. Fixed a startup crash on older Windows builds caused by a .NET runtime regression. Config import now converts power setting values correctly and no longer re-applies an already-active power plan. Improvements App icons load noticeably faster and cover almost everything now, including legacy capabilities and optional features — they come from a dedicated, checksum-validated icon repository and are fetched in parallel. Software & Apps polish: per-icon tooltips, extra table columns, an app sort dropdown, relocated search, and a cleaner compact view. A warning now appears when the Connected Devices Platform Service is set to Manual or Disabled, since some Windows features depend on it.

    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation

      By leonsk29 · Posted

      Of course the problem was Secure Boot's new certificates. Install media created by the official Media Creation Tool is already signed with a valid certificate from Microsoft, so maybe that certificate isn't "up-to-date" enough for machines with the new ones installed in the UEFI. There's really no other logical explanation.
