If you weren't running her locally she was never yours in the first place.

Every time I think Trump can't come off as more pathetic he still manages to surprise.

The use of AI in these projects is perfectly fine. Just as it is in all other software development.

Life before Trump is exactly what led to having Trump.

If I were Amelius designing these things I'd just make it impossible to enter the wrong way. Put up a force field, perhaps add a safety buffer that stores stuff that went in the wrong way so it can be spit back out again.

I mean that if you enter a Stargate that's going the "wrong way", as in it's an incoming wormhole rather than an outgoing one, it just disintegrates you and sends you nowhere.

For example, in the SG-1 episode “A Hundred Days,” a Stargate is lying flat. A MALP probe emerges from it and immediately falls back into the receiving gate, destroying it.

Trump won the national popular vote as well. The electoral college changed nothing.

It makes a lot more sense when you learn that the rippling puddle effect isn't actually the wormhole itself. The wormhole is microscopic, the Stargate is more like a transporter pad that breaks you down and squirts you through it to reassemble on the other side. So there's actually an Ancient computer doing all the work, and it can "decide" how some of those rules work in an arbitrary manner.

Which does make me wonder why the heck the Ancients designed the Stargate to disassemble stuff that enters the puddle in a situation where it's got nowhere to send it. I guess that was all long before OSHA.

It applies to the root too. It's a good metaphor.

Doesn't it? Trying to ban sunlight in the desert means you will waste a ton of resources, fail, and look foolish in the process. Maybe you shouldn't do that.

We demand rigidly defined areas of doubt and uncertainty!

This is the Fediverse, you don't have to hold back so much. Go ahead and tell us what you really think of the guy.
