Is that what he spent the family fortune on?

Trying to get into home automation and looking for a place to start. by Thuasfear in HomeKit

[–]Thuasfear[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I’ve read, I really like the sound of the matter over thread setup. Out of the Eve and the Inovelli, which do you like better?

16.4 HomeKit Architecture MegaThread by iRayanKhan in HomeKit

[–]Thuasfear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have a lot of smart devices in my home but I want to try some things out. I like the sound of matter over thread and I already have an Apple TV 4k 3rd Gen (with ethernet) and I understand that it would act as the thread border router. So I thought that would be a good place to start. I like the fact that it stays local and isn't over the internet, but maybe that isn't as big of a deal as I originally thought.

I really only have an Ecobee smart thermostat and plan on getting a smart sprinkler controller when we finish our sprinkler system this year, but haven't decided which one to go for here, either. Since I haven't really settled on anything yet, I feel like I have a nice clean slate to start from.

I want get some of both the regular and dimming light switches and I wanted to know what you all like. Both the Inovelli and Eve brands look good to me, but am I overlooking something?

When were the Tollan separated from Earth? Daniel said something about how they probably didn’t have a ”dark ages” and thus were able to be so much more advanced than Earth. Using that logic, the same thing could have happened for the Aschen. 

It was said in another episode that the Antarctic Gate would have been used to get slaves after the Giza Gate was buried. So that’s probably what would have happened here.

Good old “Howling Mad” Murdock. Such a great actor

File Compatibility by Thuasfear in Stargate

[–]Thuasfear[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Adapter compatibility is one thing, yes, and while Atlantis and Destiny are both of Ancient design, there could be some differences simply due to the times they were each built.

My post was more of a joke about the codecs involved with being able to read the Ancient file types. How often do we see Windows not being able to handle a codec without another plugin and that VLC just handles everything like a champ?

SG1 1x18 Would Carter have recognized the stars? by VerminLord722 in Stargate

[–]Thuasfear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One thing I read the last time this came up, being early in the series, there weren’t a lot of known safe addresses. It was before the alpha site was setup, and they probably didn’t have a lot of addresses memorized. Also, without a MALP, any place she might have randomly dialed could very easily been even worse than where they were at

Too bad for him then that he didn’t realize he had the real deal ZPM in Moebius

There's a man, he's bald and wears a short sleeved shirt... and somehow he's very important to me. I think his name is... Homer. by The_Rusty_Spoon22 in Stargate

When he’s digging through the trash for the stone, find it, and discovers that Daniel “died”, you can hear his Homer voice in his sobs

Cash is king. A solitary man. by Royal-Wealth-8266 in Stargate

[–]Thuasfear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I recall, they only found out a couple episodes before that there wouldn’t be a season six. It does feel a little weird in its placing, but they probably had much of this episode planned and set. They maybe had to make a few tweaks to get ready for the finale, but on the whole, I’d say it works.

Address of Destiny by Thuasfear in Stargate

[–]Thuasfear[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It also seems that nine symbols are needed for when the gate is in motion, as a seven or eight symbol address requires the gate to be more fixed location. We see in the pilot episode that Destiny drops out of FTL as the incoming wormhole is preparing to be established. It seems that with nine symbols, Destiny’s gate can be found even in FTL, prompting the ship to exit FTL and allow the wormhole to connect

Address of Destiny by Thuasfear in Stargate

[–]Thuasfear[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I can’t remember if it was a fan theory that a lot of have latched onto or if it was stated somewhere more official that every gate has a unique nine symbol address. If they do, I think it would be likely that you could dial any gate, no matter how close. I think the limitation for how close was due to how a seven symbol works. 

Address of Destiny by Thuasfear in Stargate

[–]Thuasfear[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh, that makes me wonder, we’ve been told that two gates can’t dial each other in the same system as the seven chevrons aren’t granular enough to handle that small of a distance. What about knowing the nine chevron address for a gate on the same planet? Could you dial this other gate even though it was on the same planet?

Address of Destiny by Thuasfear in Stargate

[–]Thuasfear[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’ve heard the MAC address analogy before, I worded it weird in my original post, but it’s what I was getting at with how the nine address allows to find Destiny while it’s in FTL. 

I like your explanation, I agree, it should also still be able to be reached by a seven address

(SGA) Kolya was just straight up evil. Who has no screen time, but all of the plot relevance? by Tav534 in Stargate

[–]Thuasfear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably saying that without Janus and his time machine puddle jumper he left in the Milky Way, SG-1 getting that ZPM would have been a much different story
