●● IRC: #techrights @ Techrights IRC Network: Saturday, March 15, 2025 ●● ● Mar 15 [00:00] IsambardPrince The gravity from the black hole was so immense that it was reaching through the stargate from the other side, through an incoming wormhole, even though that's not supposed to be able to happen. [00:00] IsambardPrince The Ancients probably could have figured out what do to prevent a lock but they probably just never considered it. [00:02] IsambardPrince The DHD system might not be able to establish a lock. Earth doesn't use the DHD. And they overrode dozens of safety programs a DHD has. This is established in the episode where they accidentally poison a star by introducing an unstable element into it. [00:02] IsambardPrince And the Asgard are curious as to how that could happen since the DHD program wouldn't have allowed it to. [00:03] IsambardPrince The receiving gate will accept the lock if asked, because the safety program is not inside the gate itself, and you're not supposed to rotate the inner ring by brute force like Earth does. [00:05] IsambardPrince With the Avenger virus, it's likely that Earth could have kept other stargates functional with a dialing computer, because they run the gates manually and can account for stellar drift. [00:05] IsambardPrince MinceR, It's curious that in Atlantis they never thought to use something like Avenger against the Wraith. [00:05] IsambardPrince The Wraith use stargates. [00:06] IsambardPrince In the episode with the Attero Device, which exploded Wraith hyperdrives, and Stargates, they could have disabled the DHDs so nobody's stargate blew up, disabled the Wraith ships and starved them to death, then reactivated the gate network. [00:06] IsambardPrince Right? [00:07] MinceR afaik you're supposed to be able to dial manually for emergencies [00:07] MinceR otherwise nothing would happen if you rotated that ring [00:07] IsambardPrince You can't dial a Pegasus gate manually. [00:07] MinceR yeah [00:07] IsambardPrince There is no inner ring, they're a new design that uses crystals. [00:16] IsambardPrince MinceR, So right, everyone's just stranded on whatever planet they were on until the Wraith starve in deep space. [00:16] IsambardPrince Why did nobody think of this? [00:16] IsambardPrince :D [00:16] IsambardPrince Eventually without humans to feed on, the Wraith feed on each other. Presumably in order of caste. [00:17] MinceR don't they have FTL capability in their bigger ships? [00:17] IsambardPrince But at least one of them was still alive after 10,000 years, on that cruiser that got shot down on the first planet in the Lantia system. [00:17] IsambardPrince It's all hyperdrives.

[01:05] IsambardPrince LOL [01:05] IsambardPrince Good, fuck em. [01:05] MinceR lol [01:06] IsambardPrince Pakistan is on the list too. [01:07] IsambardPrince MinceR, This is mostly like what I would have done, with the exception that Russia, Belarus, and Haiti would be on the red list. And India would be on the Orange list (visas severely restricted). [01:07] IsambardPrince So mine would be tougher. [01:07] IsambardPrince No real complaints though. [01:07] IsambardPrince No country here is somewhere we need more people from. [01:08] IsambardPrince MinceR, India probably didn't get on the shitlist because Modi says they'll accept deportation flights. [01:08] IsambardPrince So I kind of understand that since they're working with us there. [01:09] IsambardPrince "The draft proposal also included an orange list of 10 countries for which travel would be restricted but not cut off. In those cases, affluent business travelers might be allowed to enter, but not people traveling on immigrant or tourist visas." [01:09] IsambardPrince Russia and Belarus are on this list. [01:10] IsambardPrince "Citizens on that list would also be subjected to mandatory in-person interviews in order to receive a visa. It included Belarus, Eritrea, Haiti, Laos, Myanmar, Pakistan, Russia, Sierra Leone, South Sudan and Turkmenistan." [01:10] IsambardPrince MinceR, So basically travelers from Russia will need to have a really good reason to be here, on business, and go through an in-person interview at a US consulate, no waiver. [01:12] IsambardPrince MinceR, That North Korean man who escaped and is living in Washington State (he's married to another man, he escaped North Korea because he's gay and it wasn't going well there), would have still been allowed in. [01:12] IsambardPrince He was given citizenship documents by South Korea through their refugee resettlement office. [01:13] IsambardPrince I'm surprised they bothered putting North Korea on the list. I'm not aware of North Korea allowing anyone to travel to the United States and even if they did, it would be a rigorous process on this end because of the sanctions and national security stuff. [01:13] IsambardPrince "Libya" [01:13] IsambardPrince Run Marty, it's the Libyans! [01:16] MinceR is Venezuer-uh on the list? [01:16] MinceR or Rusher? [01:17] MinceR presumably agent krasnov believes he's in "United Shaysh", so that wouldn't be on the list [01:19] IsambardPrince Venezuela is on the red list. [01:20] MinceR but not Venezuer-uh? [01:20] IsambardPrince Where it belongs. [01:20] MinceR maybe whoever he dictated it to corrected it.

I put my Bose speakers facing the door and set it to repeat Eric Carmen's Hungry Eyes for 9 hours the other day. [01:24] IsambardPrince Then put my earplugs in and went to bed in the other room.

[03:23] IsambardPrince I said "They didn't have triple quarter pounders with cheese and mayo and super size fry baskets and large cokes with unlimited refills back then." [03:23] MinceR they probably stopped long ago, but i wouldn't say no to that [03:24] MinceR sounds like something that would make their fries taste better [03:24] IsambardPrince Most likely.

[21:19] IsambardPrince MinceR, "hi guys, I am an indian muslim student studying in new york, I wanted to visit my family in canada for spring, but people are saying be skeptical of the muslim ban, is there a risk if I goto canada?" [21:19] IsambardPrince I replied, [21:19] IsambardPrince "If I was you, I would not. If you do, be prepared for anything on your way back in, including being detained and sent to an ICE detention center and sleeping on concrete under a space blanket until they decide what to do. [21:19] IsambardPrince You may think you have no reason to be screwed around with by CBP, but honestly they don't tell you, they just wait for you to come back and then they do the thing. [21:19] IsambardPrince Anyone who is not a US citizen, who wants back in, should think long and hard before they travel out of the country." [21:20] IsambardPrince "From their angle, the easiest way to get rid of you, is to wait for you to leave and not allow you back in."

I am currently in the US on an F1 visa and sometimes get asked and held up at the border. [21:23] IsambardPrince By June I will need to apply for J1 visa for residency. Will I be able to get it and come complete my residency in the states? I have to leave to go to Canada in May. [21:23] IsambardPrince I realize that last time Canadians got assurances but anyone know about this time?" [21:23] IsambardPrince I replied, "If you're traveling on a Canadian passport, and not traveling FROM the actual country on the red list, you should be okay. [21:23] IsambardPrince That's how it worked under Trump's travel ban, last time. [21:23] IsambardPrince So basically I would only enter the US at a land crossing on your Canadian passport if possible, or if that's not possible, get on a plane, go to Canada, get on a flight from Canada to the US with the Canadian passport."

[23:42] IsambardPrince I said first of all, I'd save them millions, compared to their current governor, because he is using taxpayer money to turn his house into "a fortified Hitler Bunker in the woods".
