The Valenzetti equation stuff was from The Lost Experience, and isn't considered to be completely canon. The 'correct' explanation of the numbers is what was presented this season.

I see. Still, hopefully we'll eventually get an explanation of how the numbers in the cave relate to the numbers in the Dharma computer.

I think the numbers' story is incomplete then. Why would they be transmitted and used for the computer? (Of course *anything* could've been chosen as the passcode for the computer.) Their significance outside Jacob's use hasn't been explained, that I can remember.

(Note that I'm not familiar with The Lost Experience, so I don't know that part of the story.)

I still question why MiB can't leave the island. What's stopping him. What he needs to do in order for him to be able to leave. And why Jacob could leave & he can't. Still a lot of questions between these two immortals. Guess we'll find out soon.

Any regligion experts here know that compass bearing is actually a bible chapter?

Was it like 135 degrees?

After the island moves

In "The Lie", after the island moves and the time shifts begin, Juliet suggests escaping on the Zodiac raft. However, Daniel says he would have to calculate a new bearing based on "where we are now, in time."

108In "Lighthouse" Jacob instructs Hurley to rotate the lighthouse mirrors to 108°, which is the total of all of the 'numbers' summed together, suggesting that this is the new bearing.

I'm pretty sure that's been brought up before. I think it's all a play on religions. They are both trying to convince people to play for their team. Which is and which is bad depends on who you ask. The numbers in the computer are probably just another example of how Jacob thinks/says he doesn't force people to do anything but in reality he has a lot more effect on people than they know.

But Richard didn't really have any pull with Dharma (to say the least). I doubt Dharma would just say "Sure, no problem." to a request of "Build a transmitter and transmit these numbers." The numbers must have another meaning.

Thanks for that :) Never realised Daniel Faraday (RIP) said that.

    • Apple raises MacBook and iPad prices as memory costs surge

      By matthiew · Posted

      Not surprising at all. Apple got three months worth of marketing hype with the Macbook Neo's incredible low launch price. They have sowed the idea that the Neo is the best value laptop and that idea will last for years even though the value is no longer there. They do this every five years or so with a single new product that is amazing value which distracts from the rest of their products being horrendously overpriced.

      Fire and rehire. Doubt the work contracts are as favourable. Smart tactic using AI to do it legally.
