I belived it's Mr X the man from the beginning which i also believe could be Jacobs brother since he looked like him.. (Evil Brother? Maybe) Which was also Christian disguised forcing Locke to die for him to then take over hes body as the leader which will be the only one being able to get to Jacob.

I think that when Jacob says they're coming, he means Jacj, Kate, Sawyer etc etc... the Oceanic 6! Makes sense since Jacob needed them back on the Island.

Furthermore, Eloise Hawking states that when Ben asks if he can't get the other Oceanic 6 survivors to get on the plane she says "...then God help us..."

Jacob must have known the events that would have unfolded thats why, in some way or another, he gets all six survivors to come back.

Jack, Sawyer, Kate, Hurley, Sun Sayid, Jin and the other Korean dude whos name I can't remember are coming, maybe even Juliet (?) - since the bomb just exploded (or might not have) sending them to now.

I was going to use this, but then I quickly realized that only two seasons are currently out on Blu-Ray. Everything else is on pre-order.

Mind.****.Episode.

IMHO, there will never be another show as captivating as lost is.

Been reading some theories on lostpedia, this seems to make some sense:

Jacob is NOT Anubis. If he is an Egyptian god, most likely he is Sobek, the Egyptian god of creation. this would make his enemy Anubis, the lord of the underworld. Jacob lives in the statue, which we saw as a whole in "the incident". The statue has a crocodile head, which would make it a statue of Sobek. My theory is that Jacob's enemy lives in the underground temple, and in keeping with Egyptian mythology, that would make HIM Anubis.

Popular Mechanics spoke with "Egyptology expert James Allen of Brown University again to get more insight on this four-toed legend. "From what I can see of the face, it's a crocodile, which means it's supposed to be Sobek, not Anubis or Taweret," says Allen. "But the statue, of course, is hardly 'real' Egyptian. As I said before, the ankhs and the thing on the head come from Taweret." He also added that the pointy ears are a result of the imagination, and that, in actuality, the statue's sandals are Roman, not Egyptian."

So your theory from Lostpedia makes the most the sense to me as well.

So James Allen stated that the statue also have some Greek elements to it as well. We know that language that the Others use is Latin; as Juliet stated in Jughead it is the language of the enlightened. Latin is, of course, the language the Greeks spoke during this same time period that we first see Jacob and the completed statue.

So maybe there is also Greek mythology to be looked at and not just Egyptian mythology?

I think I'll just wait it out and get the complete set when season 6 is finished. there's bound to be a big box released sometime with all the Lost you need. :)

Thats what I'm doing for the Blu-Rays too. I'll pick up S5 on DVD, to go with 1-4, and then buy the super pack of all 6 seasons on Blu-Ray.

A Lost-inspired number entering game has been released on the iPhone.

Developed by Smallrock Software, Doomsday Terminal requires players to enter in a series of numbers every 108 minutes, according to Kotaku.

The application was inspired by US TV series Lost, which featured a computer terminal inside an underground hatch into which the survivors must enter numbers to avert disaster.

While the application uses a different set of numbers from the show, messages can be sent through the terminal that will be distributed to other players at random.

The current survival record stands at just over a week.

/wants :D

I think you're thinking of the Romans. The Greeks spoke Greek.

    • 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.

      Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation by Taras Buria Story time. A couple of weeks ago, I experienced a very odd thing with my computers. I was trying to reinstall Windows 11 on my primary device, and everything was going smoothly until the installer performed the first restart. After that, my computer entered the boot disk selection screen instead of continuing the setup process. Huh, that's odd, said I, and selected Windows Boot Manager only to see it fall back into the same screen right away. Then I tried booting from the USB drive with the same result—the PC kept returning to the boot device selection screen, and removing the drive would send my PC to UEFI, again, with no way to launch Windows 11. I fired up my spare laptop, which has been sitting unused for quite a while, to see if I am dealing with a defective USB drive. Nope, Windows 11 installed and started without issues. After trying another drive and checking all the possible settings in UEFI, I decided to try disabling Secure Boot. Lo and behold, Windows 11 started as it should have been in the first place, continued the setup process, and reached the initial setup screen. Victory! After I finished the setup and applied all updates, I re-enabled Secure Boot, and Windows 11 started without issues. Some time later, I tried reinstalling Windows 11 on my laptop only to experience similar issues, with UEFI claiming a Secure Boot violation. I checked whether the drive works on my main PC, and yes, it installed Windows 11 without errors. I scratched my head, went to UEFI, turned off Secure Boot, and installed Windows 11 without issues. After that, I enabled Secure Boot. Note: I used the official Media Creation Tool app for my USB drive. Also, UEFI was properly configured for Windows 11, including no Legacy Mode, a GPT-partitioned drive, and TPM and Secure Boot enabled. From my experience, if you are dealing with similar symptoms, I recommend two things: If you use old Windows 11 install media, create a new one with the latest Windows 11 release, especially if you know your PC already has the latest Secure Boot certificates. If you cannot create a new one, turn off Secure Boot, complete the installation, download all available updates, and then re-enable Secure Boot in UEFI. Note that you need to turn off Secure Boot after installing Windows 11. Otherwise, the installer won't run, claiming a hardware requirements mismatch. I believe the problem hides in Secure Boot certificates that expire this month. Microsoft is currently rolling out new certificates, and maybe a mismatch was causing these issues for both of my systems. I am out of my depth to make a definitive statement; this article is flagged as "Opinion," as I only share my experience and some tips on how to fix the problem. If some of you possess deeper knowledge and understanding of the situation, please share it in the comments. As for everyone else struggling with computers not booting after a clean install, the two steps above should get you out of the pickle.

      I gave the tool a chance the other day to make a USB. An hour later it was stuck at 0% downloaded. I downloaded the official ISO, downloaded Rufus, and made the USB myself in 15 min.
    • what other retro software do yall use

      By Nick H. · Posted

      <Moved to software discussion and support> I've got fond memories of Winamp. Changing the skins, the different visualisations etc. But now I just need a simple music player. MSN messenger would be another one, MSN Messenger Plus (I think?) offered so many different plugins. But again, it probably wouldn't work for me these days. And then there is miRC. i think it's still going these days, but lord i had fun with that back in the day. Now it's mostly stuff like Discord, WhatsApp group chats, Signal, Telegram... /me is showing his age...
