I’ve been seeing gross stuff all around about voting records. For context that matters, I live in NC. It’s fucking non-stop from all sides. I’m trying to find the ad I saw with a relative while over at his place that played on Tubi that he was watching. I just heard it in the background while I was cooking and was flabbergasted. This ad was very clearly anti-Trump but then commented on your vote is registered and can be seen (completely false) with a threatening overtone. It went by so fast, both of us asked wtf just came on and I assured him his vote is private but they can check “IF” you voted (he’s an independent and primed to believe the worse of all scenarios thanks to social media and news, but is mindful when he thinks for himself).

I doubt it was anything like the actual DNC making the ad, was more than likely a superpac. Trying to find an obscure ad that plays on streaming in a localized area isn’t as easy as it used to be. Doesn’t help that youtube and ddg just gives me a bunch of useless shit that aren’t even ads or commercials (who’da thunk it would be hard to SEARCH for a commercial to watch). Regardless, every single ad used in this context needs fined into oblivion and the people involved need jail time so others don’t continue it on for every election to come.

Also, the downvotes for you are undeserved. There’s some fucking sycophant political worshipers that either got shipped into here or have drank the kool-aid this election cycle. They literally cannot hear anything negative without becoming triggered. It’s really setting up the next administration to not have to do anything but wait another 3 years and proclaim democracy is in trouble again.

Some more food for thought,

S03E19 - New Ground | How does the destination gate get locks as it’s being dialed on Earth?

I’ve been through SG-1 a few times, and I don’t think there’s ever really an answer for this. How the heck does the destination gate have locks happening as the dialer back on Earth is dialing? That’s like if the person I was planning to call got notifications that I was typing each digit of their phone number before I’ve finished dialing it. It doesn’t make any sense!

You’re right, it doesn’t make sense, and I haven’t seen any explanation that plugs up all problems. Presumably it just looks cool 😅 The best I can think of is that, when they show one gate dialing in a chevron at a time + the receiving gate activating one chevron at a time, those aren’t meant to be happening simultaneously. Any shots of the receiving gate are supposed to have occurred a little in the future: Imagine you dial your friend and you type in one digit at a time. Once you’ve got them all dialed in and click Call, your friend’s phone lights up saying “you’re receiving a call!” Then they see the first digit light up, then the second, etc. If someone wanted to film this and make it look more dramatic, they might film you typing in the numbers, then film your friend’s phone lighting up one digit at a time, and then splice together the shots to make it look like the numbers are lighting up on your friend’s phone as you type them. And that’s what we see on screen. I seem to remember people pointing out reasons why this still doesn’t work as an explanation, but I don’t remember what the evidence was. Maybe we’ve seen cases where the dialing sequence was aborted on the calling end, yet we still saw chevrons light up on the receiving end?

Yeah…Thinking this through… So the sending gate dials one by one, immediately followed by a kawoosh (we never observe any major delay between locking the final chevron and the wormhole opening). The receiving gate receives the notification that it’s about to have a wormhole open, and starts seeing chevrons engage one by one. Before the sequence completes, the someone on the receiving end manages to dial out, blocking the incoming wormhole. So that means the sending gate saw a kawoosh…but no kawoosh ever occurred on the receiving end. The wormhole never finished forming. So what happens to anything that entered the wormhole in those few seconds before the receiving gate managed to dial out? I see two possibilities:

• Anything that entered the wormhole before the receiving gate managed to block the signal is destroyed. It just dead-ends out in space, as subatomic particles or energy or whatever.
• The wormhole bounces back, sending any such objects back to their origin gate. Either one of those seem plausible to me, but I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s more stuff in the show that makes this not work.

The Original post. Completely un-hostile with the episode context given in the description. The response? Well just look at the crosspost and the reactions all around.

You got downvoted in at least two communities, Take a hint

Removed Post At least let them keep their blankie. reason: Spam

your post isn’t Stargate related, should be pretty obvious why you’re getting downvoted.

Well expecting people to know that exact part from the episode number is expecting a bit much… It’s just not that funny either.

removed and moaning I don’t have the context to -> I downvote

Not a single response asking for clarification or an explanation. I gave you the context but you still felt like proclaiming your own downvote. This is literally the scene and episode that explains the entire concept of how the Atlanteans lost the war in the Pegasus to the Wraith and shows the process of why the wraith goons look the way they do. I’m less interested in successfully engaging with downvoters and would rather just have the meme up for actual fans to see new content. Less salty and more disappointed in some of the individuals in this “fan community” that seems to want to gate-keep.

I could’ve just put more description behind a spoiler but then it’s not going to get looked at and once again deleted for spam.

edit: Format

so you’re downvoting because you don’t find it funny?

the context I put in the description that you didn’t bother to look at?

I can’t see the message they replied to because the creator deleted it but I’m not getting what you’re saying and people are upvoting you so there must be something I’m missing. Are you guys buying pc parts with pre-installed OS on them? If it’s used than you’re using the original OS you received the part with?

Yeah does anyone else wonder if this screams of incompetence from upper management? OP was ONLY able to get the disks, RAM, CPUs and Network Card. Sounds like someone higher up gave the “ok” just thinking the “Server” frame was the important part security wise. It would be an interesting scenario to see if the data center was able to upgrade the system while keeping all of the base components compatible and everything under cost or if this was just a screw up.
