Yes and no.

Almost all "computer nerds" believe Pentium to mean "the Fifth Element". You'll find it on many PC sites -
Random Example.

Meanwhile the language gurus disagree. Penta (also Pente) is of course Greek for five. We all know this as a fact, and see it everywhere, like in Pentagram and Pentagon. The "ium" phrase doesn't really have meaning. It's used in Latin to "round off a word" (i.e. neutral nouns).

Example

To understand why "five" is import with this chip, you'll have to look at the history of why they had to choose a name, and not use 586 like its predecessors. It became obvious that they couldn't use that naming convention when they created the "sixth generation", because they would've had to name it "Hexium" or "Sexium"...

Why is creating a star from one of our gaseous giants commonly known as the “Lucifer Project”? The potential star's name was first dubbed “Lucifer” by A.C. Clarke in his novel “2010”. Lucifer is less of an actual deity and more of a concept representative of several ideas here. Lucifer, literally “light-bearer”, represents rebellion, claiming god-ship, bringing enlightenment, and mastering knowledge. Lucifer is a symbol of casting off the overlord and trusting the light from within, the concept of breaking out of the subservient shell of “God's dominion” and claiming the universe as one's own to conquer. 20 21 In general, the Luciferian message could be:

“I am tired of worshipping a fairy-tale ‘God' and leaving the future to the whim of idiots and fanatics. I will take the reins of the world into my own hands and guide it as I wish, as I may, as other will allow me to. I will set myself as a god. With the advantage of superior knowledge and the latest technology at my fingertips, I will rule as I see just. You may claim godship also and join me, or try to create the world in your own image. All you need to do is realize that you are also worthy and then attain the knowledge I have gained. If you will not realize and accept that you are a godlike creator then I have no pity for you and I will continue to dominate you until you come into the light.”


You make a decent point, but ultimatley it does come down to choice.

Do you want to break away from the hand that feeds? Your creator?

The light from within is created by God, and you want to give him Zero credit, Zero glory, and Zero praise for this?

All your really saying is that you want the Glory for what you've done... even though it was God's work to begin with.

Ultimatly the Ying Yang sign kinda explains it the best. There is a little bit of "good" in evil, and there is a little bit of "evil" in what is good. But in the end, they need each other... A positive is not positive if a negative doesn't exsist.

So in theory: God created Evil (this is the "negative" within a positive)... However the Devil/ Evil/ Bad shows us how to appreciate God (this is the "positive" within a negative)


I've gone way too off topic with this subject,...



I have watched that guys videos before, his concept is that these symbols are in every scene which is apparent, but what is the meaning? Is he suggesting that they are using mind control using symbology? Or are they there to remind us of something? This person has used several movies to show the things that are hidden in plain sight.


It is a mystery,... but it does show us that a secret religion/ ideology is in hollywood.

I have my opinion, but I will save my views on this Hidden Hollywood symbolism for another day.

No, "Pentium" is a made-up word, created by Intel's marketing department.

No conspiracy. Just a processor family.

Well, true it's made up by their marketing department, but it could still well mean element 5. After all, element 115 is called un-un-pentium, for 1-1-5, as a placeholder for whatever name it may be given at a later date.

But think about Artificial Intelligence... Is Artifical Intelligence (used by this Pentium technology) the true meaning behind the fifth element? Is this Supreme Being Artificial?


AI is not, nor can it ever be any kind of real and actual intelligence. It will have no actual consciousness, no free will, which are both requirements for actual intelligence.

It is artificial because anything which appears to be intelligent from it is an illusion. Where it is simply following the logic given to it by the programmer. Everything it does is merely following the patterns given to it, not thinking for it's itself.

Basically, it has no soul. No observer/consciousness/god inside it. None of that.

I'm a programmer and for a long time I wanted to create intelligence. I spent a good bit of time thinking of different logic's needed to create intelligence. In the end, I came to realize all I would be creating was a complex machine that only followed the patterns given to it, and could never actually be intelligent. It would literally take an act of god to get consciousness into something like that.

The closest thing I could come to simulating consciousness is with random numbers. Even taking it further by doing the bulk of the random numbers early in it's learning process, and then having them carry on for future events (character traits). But even a computer can't generate truly random numbers. And again, it is pure illusion. There is no consciousness of free will in it. It will do as it is programmed to do. It does not think, therefore it is not. It does not have that state of "I AM".

More likely that eventually someone will develop a way of adding mechanical things to their consciousness, and then trying to live forever with their consciousness inside the machine. Which would actually be an android of sorts.

If you really want to go there, then you can possibly realize that biology is really advanced nanotechnology where each cell is a nanobot which reproduces itself, and DNA is the 3d view of the coding which stretches beyond the dimensions - like an universal library of code, or the book of life, maybe you might called it life.dll(dll stands for dynamic link library).

But I fail to see what this has with a company naming their product after a greek way of saying the number 5. I do see where people get the fifth element from, as ium is a popular ending for elements. Titanium for example. So pent - 5, ium - element.

I thought the 5th element in that movie was love though.

No, it means what it's meant to mean. You can't make up a word and have it mean something other than what you intend it to mean.

This is one of the most absurd posts I've seen on ATS, and that is obviously saying something.
