Chevron 4 encoded

The chevrons are the symbols on the Stargate. We need 7 of them to travel to another planet.

it's Selmak, sir. and he says he's not gonna be a frustrating douche like last time

you totally changed the trajectory of my night, thank you

[-] EggInDisguise@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 1 month ago

Selmak was frustrating, but never a douche, in my opinion.

In fact, Jacob had such a strong impact on Selmak that they became almost a liability as far as the other tokra were concerned. He was too tempted to ignore thousands of years of protocol and precedent to assist the SGC.

It's a riff I have going with my wife that no one wants to hang out with the Tok'ra, and especially no one wants to hang out with the ancients, however, all of the great races want to hang with O'neil because (in your best Thor impression) "he's a good hang"

[-] JollyForeheadRidges@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 month ago

When they said they we showed promise and could be the fifth race, they meant for their bowling team.

[-] Quill7513@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 month ago

there like… does seem to be an undercurrent that the great races meet O'Neil and are like "the tauri are close" and then meet Carter or Jackson and are like "on second thought…"

my read is that they appreciate O'Neil's pragmatic simplicity. he doesn't try to impress the other races, he tries to achieve the best possible outcome in any given situation. Carter and Jackson i think remind the other races of the ancients too much and from everything we can tell, the ancients aren't very good neighbors. the asgard even seem to believe that O'Neil is more advanced than the other tauri, and i think that's because he somewhat hews away from Ancient approaches and more toward Nox.

that said i do have critiques of O'Neil given that he exists as an air force propaganda tool

Prairie-dogging.

[-] CaptPretentious@lemmy.world 1 points 4 weeks ago

I love the movie visuals so much more. The woosh looks now detailed but it's the vortex in the back that really sets it apart imo.

[-] Gork@sopuli.xyz 11 points 1 month ago

You technically don't have to say Locked on the last one, but it's Standard Operating Procedure by Walter to do so.

[-] Mirshe@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Fun fact: the actor ad-libbed in "locked" instead of "encoded" originally, and it worked well enough that it became a thing right then, pretty much.

[-] grozzle@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 month ago

Gary Jones is a treasure. Him, Peter DeLuise, (and the very rare Chris Judge) are easily the best of the DVD audio commentaries.

Are we long enough into the streaming era to completely give up on a revival of cast and crew commentary alt audio tracks? We are. 😞

[-] Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

After the intergalactic chevron 8 was discovered, surely it is mandatory.

[-] thenextguy@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago
[-] brynden_rivers_esq@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 month ago

You fool! Chevron 7 is locked not encoded!

Unless…actually I can’t remember. Maybe it still gets encoded if you’re going to another galaxy or something? Anyone remember?

[-] thenextguy@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago

Yes, that’s why I put the ?

The first time they dialed another galaxy was the first time jack got the library of congress downloaded into his brain.

[-] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Chevron 9, multiverse is locked.

[-] white_nrdy@programming.dev 2 points 1 month ago

Wasn't Chevron 9 used for the Destiny? IIRC it was because Destiny was moving, so they needed a velocity coordinate.

[-] Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I've not seen newer series, but surely you need more than one extra dimension to capture the direction of of the velocity.

The show is about the Air Force traveling the universe (where everyone speak English) using puddles designed by an ancestor race made up of Arthurian characters and later controlled by Egypitian and Norse Gods.

The math is sometimes a bit hand-wavey.

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Oh thank god. For a while there I thought I was stuck on this planet with assholes like elon musk, and trump.

Ok, so, this new planet we're going to.....do they have bacon? Or should we find some left leaning farmers to bring some pigs for breeding?

Look, I'm excited to leave this hellhole called earth, but, c'mon. We gotta bring bacon.

But we don't have to bring pedophiles, or fascists. That's why we're leaving earth to begin with.

[-] Grail@multiverse.soulism.net 11 points 1 month ago

Sorry, Thor says meat eating is primitive and we have to leave the Bacon on Earth

[-] grozzle@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 month ago

the yellow ones are not bacon.

[-] thenextguy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Someone needs to tell Kevin.

[-] Geobloke@aussie.zone 4 points 1 month ago

To be fair, I'm 50:50 on Elon being an alien that "accidentally" got left behind by his mates

[-] Kanda@reddthat.com 3 points 1 month ago

You want to bring pigs, but also not bring pigs.
