Thanks to JonnyV for the heads up. From my knowledge this is the first time we've had confirmation that Alpert and The Others were responsible for the death of Juliet's ex-husband.

Nestor Carbonell on the challenge of playing such a mysterious character: "My first episode was as a recruiter to get Juliet to come to the island. I ended up killing her ex-husband who was stopping her from leaving [for] the island... When I read the material I thought it'd be interesting if I didn't play him - I've got to convince her, so I can't tip her off that I've got some other surreptitious ideas, I've got to be genuine and honest and kind and probably have a good reason for doing this, for killing her ex-husband. So that was always my mantra was just don't play the villain, play him as a human being and to this day I don't really know if he's good or bad or evil or how much of him is good or how much of him is [evil]. Just when I've figured out the character, I open up another script and I say, 'Oh my God, now I'm completely thrown!'"

I can see Alpert having a larger role in the next season. It will be good to see some of his mysteries (like his age) unraveled at least!

Also I found this question that they asked Jorge to be funny/interesting (from the site Rappy linked to):

Jorge Garcia on wrapping his head around some of "Lost's" more challenging aspects: "I did actually get some books and study a little bit on what these time travel theories are that they're basing everything on just to kind of better understand it myself. Because I knew, when I saw this was the subject matter that was going to be showing up that it'd be good to kind of know a little bit more about it."
I am worried it will be poor but I am 90% sure that won't happen...that darn 10% tho :p

Pretty much same as me, though I do believe they'll not make it an standard sci-fi ending. I hope to god that it's a good ending, 5 going on 6 years of my life, I deserve a good ending :laugh:

Anyone taking a guess about season 6?

I'll take a stab at it:

We find ourselves back in 2004, with Oceanic 815 crashing (quite possibly for it's third time-loop, or more - revealed later in the season). This time, however, we find Frank as the pilot (as he was supposed to be) and probably Daniel as a passenger - they both survive.

Those who left the island (with the possible exception of Desmond) and those who were time-skipping in season 5 will have no recollection of those events, but those who came in contact with the time-skippers in pre-crash time periods will (we've already seen this with Charlotte "remembering" Daniel). Having read Daniel's journal, Eloise knows to have Daniel take flight 815.

Because of the above, different decisions are made, altering the events that we know of as of seasons 1-3 (I suppose season 4, and maybe 5, too). Season 6 will be about making the decisions that ensure a "happy ending". The "happy ending", we will find out, is Jacob winning the "game" - seasons 1-5 was about Esau winning - thus explaining the change in colors of the Lost logo at the end of the season 5 finale. The series's title is a play on words - it refers to an end-of-game status.

I'm expecting to see quite a few nosebleeds in season 6.

Yeah, the theory has a few holes, but that's my guess.

Nice sig/avatar btw mck.

Thanks :) Lost! :cool:

Nice, I like reading theories, I'm around 80% the first part of what you said will happen. :p

Is it me or does it seem like Locke is the only one facing backwards?

    • Microsoft's fast coding model MAI-Code-1-Flash comes to Copilot Business and Enterprise by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft’s recently announced MAI-Code-1-Flash model is now generally available to GitHub Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise customers. With this support, organizations can have more centralized policy controls and billing while finally being able to use Microsoft’s lightweight, first-party coding model. According to GitHub’s announcement, Business and Enterprise plan administrators must enable the MAI-Code-1-Flash policy in Copilot settings before developers can access the model. Microsoft says that MAI-Code-1-Flash is for fast, iterative coding work rather than the most demanding architectural or debugging tasks. GitHub’s official model comparison page says that the model is great for "general-purpose coding and writing," while it excels at fast, accurate code completions and explanations Microsoft introduced MAI-Code-1-Flash on June 2 as part of a broader collection of internally developed MAI models. GitHub subsequently expanded support to Copilot CLI, the Copilot cloud agent, GitHub.com chat, GitHub Mobile, Visual Studio, JetBrains IDEs, Eclipse, and Xcode, but said support for managed Business and Enterprise customers was still on the way. In Microsoft’s own benchmark testing, MAI-Code-1-Flash scored 51.2% on SWE-Bench Pro, compared with 35.2% for Anthropic’s Claude Haiku 4.5. Microsoft also claimed that the model used up to 60% fewer tokens on SWE-Bench Verified. Do note that these are vendor-run results rather than independent measurements. The model is billed at provider list pricing under GitHub’s usage-based system. GitHub currently lists MAI-Code-1-Flash at $0.75 per million input tokens, $0.075 per million cached input tokens, and $4.50 per million output tokens. For organizations, the main incentive to use MAI-Code-1-Flash is likely to be efficiency rather than maximum capability. A smaller model that responds quickly and limits unnecessary output is quite useful for repetitive agent tasks at scale, especially after GitHub Copilot’s move toward usage-based billing. The "Flash" model is recommended for fast work and not necessarily for huge repositories with loads of context. It's better if teams compare their output with other larger models, especially if they're working on security-sensitive changes and complex, multi-file work.
    • yes AND no the "original" or plain/normal Optiplex 7010 won't be getting any more new firmware updates BUT the Optiplex SFF/SFF Plus {small form factor}, Micro/Micro Plus & Tower/Tower Plus 7010 editions DO get new updates such as this new one   and here are similar guides from the Dell web site for Dell systems: https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000390990/secure-boot-transition-faq https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000347876/microsoft-2011-secure-boot-certificate-expiration
    • AT&T has been spying on US citizens with the NSA for decades.. they just know how to keep it more under wraps.. the evil level is still there.
