A quick question, do we know the exact year Ben (and his father) arrived to the Island ?

Lostpedia states: "Sometime in the 1970s, Roger took a job with the DHARMA Initiative, courtesy of the same couple that was present when his wife died."

So no, not the exact year unfortunately.

Well, we know that the FDW has to get turned at least once more, because the people currently in 1977 are not going to live the rest of their lives there.

Have I missed something, or is that speculation? I know the natural progression of the story line would suggest both groups re-uniting, but is there any proof that this is going to happen yet?

Yeah plus we have thought of 3 choices Anubis,Horus and some other one that my mind has forgotten.

Actually, it can't really be Horus. Horus is always shown with a bird head (no ears) and the statue clearly has ears.

Horus is also usually shown wearing what I would describe as a crown, which this statue doesn't have.

The other thing, the pregnant guy, doesn't have human feet.

That said, the picture above doesn't prove much. Most of the Egyptian deities are shown holding at least one Ankh at all times.

I'm not sure if it's been proven that the 4 toed statue is actually the same we've seen in LaFleur.

The size of the statue plus the location added to the fact its the only statue we have seen so far everythings adding up that it is.

Well that's the thing Rappy :) The location. If you wanted to look at the 4 toed for exactly behind and from the same distance as did Sawyer/Mile/Jin/Juliet, you must be somewhere in the middle of that mountain. here look:

Now, look how the other statue looked to them:

- they and the statue seem to be in the same level.

- therefore, no mountain behind that one.

A bonus, is that the color of the material used to "build" the 4toed is more of a white, and more of red in the other one.

I'm not saying that they ARE NOT the same. I'm just saying, there's more proof they're not the same that they are. IMO.

Yeah I see your point, the statue there could be new and over time stuff weathers plus the fact the island does move and the statue might of been on land...there's so much we need to know really...it look tho the statue is looking out over something...

Its possibly been thousands of years. Therefore the statue aged and the color washed out. Also, as you can tell from the sky, it seems to be dusk, which would tint everything pinkish.

If you look at the location of the Orchid and the statue on the lost map, it puts it exactly in the right place. May the elevation be a bit off? Yeah, but its the same statue.

Also, I don't think the Lost map is always right, in fact I think they have a lot of stuff too close together, but in this case they are more right than wrong.

I was reading Four-toed statue theories and I found "Evidence why it's Anubis"

* The Countdown in the hatch reads Underworld, Anubis Is the god of the underworld

* Looks like it has pointed ears and a headdress

* Looks like it could be holding an ankh in its right hand.

* The clothes it's wearing look like those that Anubis wears in common drawings.

* Hurley was drawing a sphinx, which is Egyptian, just before Jeremy Bentham came to visit him.(The Life and Death of Jeremy Bentham)

* Tunisia (where "the exit" is) is awfully close to Egypt.

* The clothes resemble those of any Egyptian god and it looks as if the statue is holding ankhs in both hands.

* Paul's necklace was an ankh as well. (LaFleur)

* The statue looks like Anubis, the Egyptian god of the dead and gatekeeper of the underworld from the Egyptian Old Kingdom period.

I have to agree with episode, also there are some things I don't agree with there like the pointy ears...I am not sold on that atm...I can see they are pointy but not as pointy as anubis but it could be the angle we are looking from.

Exactly. They aren't the huge, straight up ears like Anubis usually has, but they are definitely there, so therefore it isn't Horus.

      How about fire the guy who approved all the bad decisions? The guy who bought these studios in the first place? Oh wait, Satya is safe with his billions while the workers pay the price.

      This had nothing to do with games. This is all about management wanting to squeeze as much money from Xbox to keep Microsoft's AI ambitions afloat. Someone has to make money to burn on AI.
    • GeekBook X16 Pro Intel Core Ultra 9 thin and light laptop gets a 17% discount

      GeekBook X16 Pro Intel Core Ultra 9 thin and light laptop gets a 17% discount by Steven Parker GEEKOM is back with a 17% discount on its top-of-the-range X16 Pro laptop. You may remember that we reviewed the X14 Pro back in February, which marked GEEKOM's debut into the ultrathin laptop segment. You can view the full specs below. GEEKOM X16 Pro Model NX14CM Dimensions 322.58 × 213.36 × 5.8 mm (12.7"L x 8.4"W x 0.23"T) Weight 997 g / 2.2 lbs Material Unibody Magnesium Alloy CPU Intel Ultra 5 125H (14C/18T, 24MB L3, 2.3-5.1 GHz, TDP 20W) Intel Ultra 9 185H (16C/22T, 24MB L3, 2.3-4.5 GHz, TDP 35W) Graphics Intel Arc graphics 8 Xe-cores @ 2350MHz 1024 shading units/stream processors (128 CUs), 8 Raytracing Cores, 64 texture mapping units, and 32 ROPs NPU Intel AI Boost, 11 TOPS / Up to 33 TOPS (CPU+NPU+GPU) Memory 32GB Dual-channel LPDDR5x 7467 MT/s Micron SODIMM Storage 1 x M.2 2280 PCIe Gen 4x4, Wodposit 1TB, 2 TB Display 16.0" IPS LCD, 2560 × 1600 (16:10) 100% sRGB, 120Hz Refresh Rate Camera 2MP 1080P 1 × Light sensor in camera module 1 × LED indicator in the camera module Windows Hello Support: No Mic 2 x Digital Mics integrated in the camera module Speakers 2 x 3813 (4Ω×2W) built in body Audio Codec: ALC269QN-VC3-GR Certificate: DTS: X Ultra Operating System Windows 11 Pro 25H2 Bluetooth Bluetooth 5.4 Wireless LAN MediaTek MT7922 M.2 Wi-Fi 6E LAN card Left I/O ports 1 x HDMI 2.0 2 x USB4 (40 Gbps) Right I/O ports 1 x USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A (5 Gbps) 1 x 3.5 mm Audio jack 1 x Camera Privacy Shutter Keyboard 78Key 1.2±0.2mm / Height 3.5±0.2mm (with backlight) White LED light in Caps Lock and Fn key Language: Default US Touch Pad Dimension: 120 x 71mm Material: Mylar Position: Middle Interface: I2C, Dualpoint button Dock Input port: 1 x Type-C 2 x USB 3.0, 1 x RJ45 1 x PD 1 x HDMI (Bio) Security Fingerprint sensor (in the power button) SD Card slot No Kensington Lock No Battery 77Wh (Input 20V, 3.25A) Power 65W PD GaN Fast Charge, USB-C to USB-C Warranty 2 years (Early Bird 1+1 Years) Deal price $1119.67 The X16 Pro is powered by the Intel Ultra 9 185H, which was released in Q4 2023 and is a 14th Gen Meteor Lake CPU designed for laptop/mobile using the Intel 4 architecture based on a 7nm process. The Ultra 9 185H features 16 cores and 22 threads running at up to 5.1 GHz. It also includes a dedicated NPU utilizing Intel AI Boost at 11 TOPS. On the graphics front, the 185H includes the still fairly capable ARC Graphics (not to be confused with the newer ARC 140T) integrated GPU with a max GPU frequency of 2350 MHz across 8 Xe-cores. It has been said that the iGPU is equivalent to the NVIDIA GeForce 3050 and GTX 1650 in gaming and synthetic benchmarks. Other highlights include an AMOLED display, LPDDR5x memory at 7467 MT/s, WiFi 6E, Bluetooth 5.4, and a fingerprint sensor built into the power button. AI PC? Although the Intel Core Ultra 9 185H includes a dedicated NPU, it's only 11 TOPS; therefore, it does not qualify as a Copilot+ PC. However, it can reach up to 33 TOPS with a combination of NPU, CPU, and GPU. As I said, although we only reviewed the X14 Pro, the unboxing is the same for the X16 Pro, which I noted in my review. The packaging is quite a nice experience. The outer box houses the X16 Pro box with a small compartment that contains the 5-in-1 Dock ($40 value), which appears to be an "Early Bird" inclusion. Upon removing the box cover, the X16 Pro is revealed sitting in a cardboard compartment with two small booklets of documentation. To the left of the X16 Pro are two cardboard compartments containing the 65W charger and Type-C USB cable. What’s In The Box 1 x GEEKOM X16 Pro Ultra-thin Laptop 1 x Type-C to Type-C cable 1.8M 1 x 65W GaN PD Fast Charger 1 x Warranty Card 1 x Thank You Card 1 x User Guide All products sold by GEEKOM receive a 3-year free Warranty from the date you receive the product. If needed, you can RMA or return locally relative to your region (the U.S. has a U.S. warehouse, mainland E.U. has a German warehouse). GEEKOM X16 Pro at GEEKOM U.S. for $1,119.67 was $1,349 (17% off) Use coupon code NWGBX1617 when checking out. This flash deal expires on July 2.
