Lost - Season 5


Recommended Posts

It has only been shown in two time periods and hasn't been mentioned by anyone period and the foot was still there in 2004. Plus, we don't know when it was that we saw the full statue either.

Right. So sometime before the distant past when we saw the whole thing and 1954, the statue crumbled and all that was left was the foot.

If they thought it was a big deal when they saw it, then clearly they had not seen it before, and therefore it was not around in 1954.

Thats an sculpture of King Tut wearing a 'nemes' headdress which looks to be the exact headdress that the statue is wearing.

That's interesting...one thing we know for sure is its definitely egyptian.

I have to disagree. The back of the head looks like hair and nothing is flaring to the sides. The parts pointing out and back look like ears, and the image Hurmoth posted looks to be spot on with the above.

Everyone keeps talking about this statue. If my memory serves me correctly, when the remants of the statue were first seen in the present, it has only four toes. Therefore, the statue has to be more of an animal than that of a human. Preferably a cat.

Expect answers to the following questions: What did Sawyer whisper to Kate? What happened to Aaron? Why was Ben all bloodied up before he got on the plane? And why did Hurley and Sayid even get on the plane?

:yes:

so...just random wednesdays? or the next new episode on the 18th? because you're not being very clear with what you posted...

I'm talking about the top.

None of the gods we've mentioned would carry the sides.

The foot is 110% a human foot with 4 toes.

They are up, just a little back, but you're right.

Its closer to Anubis than Horus, though, because Horus isn't even shown with ears at all.

I think it might actually be a statue of Richard.

Right, but when you put the hieroglyphs together, they become other things. Its a series of 5 glyphs (or 3+2). While the falcon symbol (which isn't quite the same as the one on the timer) may stand for Horus by itself, with an arrow with it, it means something else.

Edit: According to http://lostpedia.wikia.com/wiki/Hieroglyphs, which takes its source as Rachel Blake's blog, which was part of The Lost Experience, and therefore is canon, the 'bird' on the countdown timer is a vulture, not a falcon.

Perhaps the goddess is "Mut" who is the "Mother Goddess" and is depicted as a vulture.

She even looks similiar to Taweret.

"As the goddess of motherhood, Taweret was eventually assimilated into the identity of Mut, the great-mother goddess."

After the latest thing that Hurmoth posted, I'm now fairly convinced that it is a statue of Taweret. It looks spot on and it makes sense as he explained since the episode was about Amy giving birth to the baby, which very well could turn out to be Jacob or someone very important. I also think that those clever writers threw in a lot of stuff to make us think it was Anubis or Horus. They did it on purpose to throw us off track! The timer meaning underworld, the fact that there's a character named Horace! Sneaky writers! It could still end up being Anubis, but Taweret seems more likely now. Good find!!

It can't be Jacob. In 1954, Locke told Richard that Jacob made him their new leader. If Jacob didn't exist, then Richard would have had a puzzling look or comment as to who he was referring to. It could be someone important or with some kind of special talent or gift. There wasn't anything special about Charlotte, but there is about Miles, both of which were born on the island.

Anyone else think this time travel take the romance/excitement out of the show a bit? I mean, you could argue that the whole "Locke, you have work to do" or the survivors have to do this or the world ends as being total BS because it doesn't matter what you do, the universe will just course correct itself, right? So why even do anything?

It seems like the point on time travel on this show (for now) is not to change the timeline but rather the creators are using it as a vehicle to give us answers to the mysteries that we have been trying to figure out. How it plays out in the end? Only time (no pun intended) will tell.

But what really is bothering me is who is setting the tune on the dial where certain people appear in one timeline & others in another.

    • This sounds like underneath the nice marketing spin, either someone at Adobe got tired of their lazy devs and asked Microsoft to help them sort at least some of Adobe's ancestral spaghetti code to make it go faster, or Microsoft wanted Adobe's crap to run better on Windows to make it look better when compared to Apple, so they offered to intervene. Either way, GOOD.
    • My favorite file manager for Windows 11 finally gets a long-requested feature by Taras Buria Files is among the best File Explorer alternatives for Windows 10 and 11. This free app is packed with all sorts of features and conveniences, but there is one crucial feature that is still missing—Tree View. Fortunately, the latest update in the Preview channel finally delivers it. With version 4.1.4, which is now available for download in the Preview channel, developers implemented Tree View, a new mode that displays folders in an expandable hierarchy. Windows 11's stock File Explorer always had this feature, but it was nowhere to be found in Files until now. Starting with the latest preview update, you can expand each drive and its nested folders without leaving the current location and then open the folder you need in the main view. To try Tree View in Files, update the app to the latest preview version, then click the small arrow next to a drive to expand its content. The developers say they are rolling out Tree View in Preview first to gather feedback from users and improve the feature before bringing it to all in the stable channel. In addition to Tree View, Files 4.1.14 improves the Windows Fonts folder. You can now preview each font directly in Files with no need to open the built-in font viewer. For now, these two features are only available in the Preview channel. For those using the stable release, developers recently released version 4.1.3, with improvements for the built-in tag system, on-demand folder size calculation, and plenty of various fixes. You can check out the full release notes here. You can download Files from the Microsoft Store (paid version) or its official website (free).
    • Who is paying for this 30x scale-up? Its sounds expensive.
    • Millions of users to benefit from Windows 11's new performance boost on Adobe Photoshop by Sayan Sen Despite the advent of AI-generated imagery, Adobe's Photoshop remains one of the most popular tools on this planet. Adobe does not have a publicly reported total user count but it's probably not wrong to assume there are millions. As of 2025, Adobe Creative Cloud has had approximately 41 million paid subscribers, many of whom likely use Photoshop. In addition, more than 166,000 companies worldwide are apparently also using the app. These figures are according to a very recent report by SQ Magazine. Out of them, it is fair to assume that many are probably running Windows. As such, there is good news for these users as Microsoft has announced Photoshop is getting a big 20% performance boost on x86-64 (AMD64) systems and a 13% bump-up on Arm devices. This is definitely great news for them as many have complained about the slow performance and general sluggishness of Photoshop on Windows 11 ever since the advent of the latter back in 2021. If you are wondering how Microsoft managed to do this, the answer lies in a combination of compiler-level optimizations and a technology called Sample Profile Guided Optimization (SPGO). According to Microsoft, Adobe worked closely with the company’s Visual C++ team and adopted the latest MSVC toolchain enhancements together with SPGO to squeeze more performance out of Photoshop’s CPU-bound workloads. Unlike traditional Profile Guided Optimization (PGO), which requires developers to create special instrumented builds and run lengthy training workloads, SPGO gathers performance data directly from optimized release binaries. This means Adobe could collect real-world usage information which gives a major advantage to this technique, as companies could leverage data collected from actual customer workloads rather than only relying on synthetic benchmark runs. In theory, this should allow optimizations to better reflect how users interact with software in the real world. Thanks to this, there are improvements to code layout, function inlining, hot-and-cold code separation, and other low-level tweaks that help processors execute instructions more efficiently. Essentially the compiler is better able to identify “hot” code paths, those which are most frequently executed, and optimize them accordingly.
