I managed to grab it fast enough thanks to Rappy.

And man, that was awesome. It was way better than I expected it to be. But, it also made me hate Darlton more. It kind of shows that they could have easily answered more than they did, if they really wanted to.

My reaction when it ended was, "Damn it! I want more".

Was hoping for more, but ah well. The part with Walt was almost useless. Given Walt's age, it would seem that Hurley and Ben weren't on the island that long. So some dying long after Jack would appear to be a few years and not hundreds or even thousands of years. I surely didn't expect most of the video being Dharma, but the Guam warehouse only raised more questions. I felt a little insulted by Ben's, "each of you can ask one question". It's like the writers were dummying it down to appease fans of the mysteries. Maybe I'm just being a little mushy... yea, that's probably it.

Just watched it, and the question has to asked...

... why wasn't that made to be the end of the tv show and not the steaming pile of poo that was the whole purgatory crap?

I felt more content with that being a finale then the actual tvshow it self...

How do you mean?

They explained the whispers where trapped souls or something. But they never explained why Walt would randomly appear to people in the middle of the jungle preceded by whispers. And when Ben told him he needed to help his father... I guess he can interact with the whispers somehow. Dunno. They havent really explained anything, but that's the best we will ever get.

That video ****ed me off even more.

Why?

We know who does the pallet drops and that its not automated, we already knew why but it was nice to have confirmation why the polar bears were on the island, we now know the hurley bird wasnt saying his name and wasnt smoke monster it was a genetically engineered dharma bird, we know what the music/video room was for i assumed it was brainwashing but it was to induce amnesia in patients, and it was also confirmed why the women dying having babies on the island was because of the electromagnetic properties of the island.

Apart from the Walt stuff i was extremely satisfied but also a little bit annoyed why this information wasnt included in the show.

and it was also confirmed why the women dying having babies on the island was because of the electromagnetic properties of the island.

That's not exactly true. Many people were born on the island just fine. There came a point where pregnancies would kill the mothers near the end of the second trimester. Before this started happening, people were born on the island with no problems (Ethan, Charlotte and Miles).

In the video he states that transferring pregnant polar bears will kill them (not that bluntly) All the babies we have seen being born on the island were pre-swan incident... ;) (bar, aaron) so when they let off the "nuke" and screwed up the swans energy and made it somehow so woman cant give birth...

What's the Hurley Bird?

    • 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.
