the concert is probably Penny's party

Great episode, I'm starting to feel better about where they're taking this on Sunday.

(PS - yea, I haven't participated in this thread until now, but I've been watching since day 1 and on other forums. I simply never thought to look here to discuss Lost)

I believe it is Penny's concert, but without DS. That dress wouldn't be for a DriveShaft event, plus what better way for really epic **** to go down while they play extremely sad classical music to toy with our emotions.

It's the perfect backdrop. That's my one and only theory for the finale.

Hmmmm...so, Desmond is a "failsafe" for the island? I am guessing he can withstand the electromagnetic energy that is at the core of the island that Jack has to now protect? And, with him withstanding that energy, the island collapses on itself or something?

What I do not get, though, is if Widmore brought Desmond to the island because he is a failsafe, then why is MiB going to destroy the island (that is, use the failsafe) with the use of Desmond? Wouldn't that fulfill the purpose of Widmore bringing Desmond back (supposedly under Jacobs order)?

Also, Jacob confirmed that Smokie/The Monster/MiB IS his brother. He said he made a mistake long ago by throwing him (at the time he says this, all the Losties know is he is talking about what they call "The Monster") into the core of the island.

Whether smokie is something that is feeding off MiB's soul, or whether it is directly MiB, we do not know, but we do know now that "The Monster" is Jacob's brother in some form, if I understand what was said correctly.

EDIT: Ah yes, Jacob says something along the lines of "I threw him into the light, and now all he wants to do is kill me", meaning his brother is still alive in some form, trying to exact his revenge on Jacob.

So is anyone else planning something special for Sunday night?

I want to goto a party, but our city doesn't seem to have anything like that going on.

I am planting my rear on the couch for however long it's on for. :p

What time does it all start anyways?

I am gonna start at 7PM!!!

    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval by David Uzondu Image via @realDonalTrump (X) As OpenAI prepares the release of its next model, GPT 5.6, the White House has instructed the company to limit the distribution of the software to a small group of government-approved partners instead of the general public, as it has done with previous releases. According to The Information, OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman sent an internal memo to staff on Thursday explaining that the federal government will approve access "customer by customer" during an initial preview phase. Altman noted in the communication that this restrictive rollout is "not [their] long-term model" for software deployment, and the company plans to work toward a "more sustainable" distribution method later. CNN said that both OpenAI and the Trump administration view the capabilities of GPT 5.6 on the same level as Anthropic's Mythos and that government officials intend to "collaborate with frontier AI labs to develop shared approaches for addressing the challenges of scaling this technology." The latest restriction comes just weeks after the US Commerce Department decided to restrict Fable, a version of Mythos with extra safety "guardrails" to prevent users from exploiting software vulnerabilities. Not long after the release, though, researchers at Amazon found a way to bypass these restrictions, prompting an aggressive response from federal authorities. The government ordered Anthropic to cut off access for non-US citizens located outside the US, non-US citizens living inside the US, and incredibly, even Anthropic's own foreign-born employees. Anthropic now appears to be building a workaround to resolve this compliance block with an update to its Privacy Policy that introduces a category called "Verification Data" to handle KYC and Digital IDs. This setup could mandate digital identity checks to filter users by nationality, requiring a government-issued ID and facial biometric data. Who knows? Maybe in the future, you would have to scan your US Passport or State ID to prove your citizenship before you are allowed to chat with Fable 5 (or any other model).
    • When Windows 7 was released I created an AutoHotkey script that uses Alt+` as a keyboard shortcut to move a window across monitors. I have been using that script for over 15 years and this is the first time I have come across another app that uses the same shortcut!
    • I called it last year that they wouldn't end support when they said there would. There are too many people still on Windows 10 waiting for something better to upgrade to and 11 ain't it! The recent promises of fixing Windows 11's many problems is nice, but unless they deliver on those promises in a big way then I expect customers will still want to stick with 10.
