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.

anyone want to buy a bobblehead :p

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 reportedly has a second-generation iPhone Fold planned for 2027 by Hamid Ganji The iPhone Fold is one of the most anticipated tech products expected to debut this fall. It will be Apple’s first foldable iPhone, ushering in a new product category for the company. While the first generation has yet to hit the shelves, a new leak suggests Apple has already begun work on its successor. Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station claims that the second-generation iPhone Fold has already been confirmed, meaning Apple could launch a successor in fall 2027. The foldable iPhone is also reportedly referred to as the “iPhone Ultra,” though it remains unclear whether Apple will ultimately choose that branding, especially as Samsung is rumored to rename the Galaxy Z Fold 8 as the Galaxy Z Fold Ultra this year. The leaker also claims that the second-generation foldable will feature a wider folding display while reusing the same screen found in the first generation. Apple’s first foldable iPhone is expected to feature a 7.8-inch inner display and a 5.3-inch outer screen in a passport-style form factor. It has already been reported that Apple plans to change its iPhone release cycle in 2026 to spread launches throughout the year. Under this strategy, the iPhone Fold is expected to debut this fall alongside the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max. The standard iPhone 18 and iPhone Air 2 are expected to arrive later in 2026 or in early 2027. Speaking of the iPhone Air, Digital Chat Station says Apple remains undecided about a third-generation model. The company is reportedly waiting to see how the iPhone Air 2 performs in the market, and if sales disappoint, a successor may never materialize. As we reported this week, the iPhone Air has not been scrapped from Apple’s plans. The second-generation model is reportedly scheduled for spring 2027 and could introduce upgrades such as an additional rear camera for ultrawide photography and improved battery life.
    • ahh yes the good old your opinion differs from mine so you are therefore insane lol destiny 1 had no agenda pushing and was a massive success of a game, if you clearly look online the team for some reason thought they had too many men on the team and went on a woman and dei recruitment drive and we all know how destiny 2 performed from then on in
    • The limited imaginations and business acumen of non-dominant players is simply that: the abject lack of creative business acumen. Businesses often want to operate in a financially-rewarding marketplace (free market economics) and/or exit/cash-out at maximal financial recompense. Money is their incentive; regulations are both their obstacles and their tools; politics is their means of influencing the marketplace. Google, in this story's example, is crying that AWS and Azure are "too dominant" -- cuz Google Cloud is not printing as much money as Alphabet wants (although it is still dramatically more than they actually need). The EU DMA should truly follow-the-money and treat the EU as its own sovereign nation in order to protect European market players: Domestic entities are exempt from market-influence regulations until absolute monopoly is achieved; Foreign (non-EU/non-Euro) entities are all regulated via stricter DMA measures whereby regulated partnership with independent domestic entity becomes the only way for foreign entities to 'tip the scale' for favorable financial remunerations. Basically create a dual-track aligning with China's foreign investment models. In my eyes, this is the only way to properly protect the European marketplace beyond the current dot-com/ai-bubble/social-media crazes.
