First thing I see 

@@DragonLordGabrielBrowncoat she is seen again

@gabe Gohery s03e11

XD

A small price to pay to become hot again.

What's funny about that episode is that the first time I saw it I was going, "Who the fuck is this lady?". Turns out I missed this episode where the introduce her. The beauty of owning all ten seasons though is that you can watch every episode. And the beauty of haven not seen Stargate in at least 6 years is that you FORGET a ton of episodes, so you watch these clips and get super excited because a forgotten episode might as well be a brand new episode of SG1.

I LIKE IT ! MAKE IT SO...

And a pit with sharks with lasers attached to their heads.

or you know, post 50 guards at the fucking thing 24/7. I mean come on, it's the bottle neck to earth, i'd have it inside bunker that's inside a bunker that's inside another bunker, each with 50 guards at the entrances at all times & a nuke inside each separate bunker to make sure NOTHING can get out. Security in this show was so sloppy it's laughable.

Yeah but then you cant play golf into the wormhole.

And low tech emergency iris control from the control room. Hell, just the fact that the gate control systems can be accessed from a low security place like the medical area is a HUGE security flaw.

Agreed she had so much potential but failed at her very next attempt resulting in a dud of a villain

@@samuelfawell9159 I don't mind the reaging, but I think Kyria would have eventually remembered her first life and could have been an interesting foil, though I don't think she would have gone after Earth. Heck, I would have had her attached to that planet that made that elixir by distilling symbiotes.

She could have gotten to stargate universe destiny and changed her life

Niirti and her would have definitely gotten along.

Thanos's mother

All you need is biology to make the greatest weapons of all.

Destroyer of half a world just doesn't have the same ring to it.

@@ingainloggningsnamn Fair and balanced is what Thanos would have said

That's what a "manual override" is supposed to be.

No he means an actual power plug like your fridge. Walk over and BOP! Unplug it. Power electricity goes bye bye.

@@rxonmymind8362 It would suck mightily if someone tripped over that plug while travelers were moving through the stargate.

The have multiple manual overrides. One is a big switch on both sides of the gate room. If 1 is used it forces the iris closed.

They have cut the gate breaker before, not sure why they didn't this time

QWERTY is a good layout

It's universal except for those who don't have a QWERTY keyboard and who do not speak english?

There is a theory it was designed to deliberately slow typists and prevent jamming of old mechanical typewriters.

popuptoaster Theory? That IS the reason told by designer to solve that problem!

That's a myth I'm afraid. www.utdallas.edu/~liebowit/keys1.html

Theomite Descended amnisiac Ori, maybe

She seems to be a genius even among geniuses, maybe self induced ( since she's so good with chemicals), once you understand the basics of something then the rest becomes easier and easier.

That moment when you forget that liars and actors exist.

@@rivalyncrimson shush. The nerds are discussing esoteric things.

@@Purpleturtlehurtler hee hee

Yeah this, and military grade hardware / software nonetheless. 🤷🏻‍♀️

What's shocking is how people can't flex their imaginations; if Linea can easily cure blindness, create plagues and whip up *cold fusion* with a _plant_ , she can surely figure out a primitive computer system.

@@Ragitsu "Figure out a primitive computer system" Within minutes. Minutes! Besides, the computing system should be fundamentally different from any other information processing system in the galaxy, since it evolved independently from the others. You say it's primitive, but it's also completely different from anything else she would have been likely to see, especially if she isn't lying about never using the Stargate Network before, which we can assume is true since otherwise she would have escaped the prison in the same manner as SG-1 did. Then the only information system she would have encountered was on a world of comparatively low-technology level.

@@callumunga5253 She's just *that* advanced, yes.

I don't mind leaps of logic, and all of the plot armour that saves the main characters virtually every episode, but then they give us an episode like Heroes part two, in which a popular character is killed off for realism, make your minds up.

i don´t know about the other part but i think the iris is open and has to recieve the command to close, which they can´t send here because they lost all access and control

Security vs convenience is an art. What if an SG team returns back home and while en route there's a power outage. "like bugs on a windshield" ~ O'Neill. Many instances irl where automatic doors go open on power outage, to not trap people. You could have a security delay on a few batteries/backup generators, but it would be tied to average travel time, which grants the exact same advantage to a person escaping. Also, people spilling coffee or a random bug. In critical systems like this, it's often made simple in design, but intentionally "dumb" (difficult) to accidentally make it fail, extra backdoors and fancy smartphone control apps in the design can grant more reliable control, but simultaneously allows more points of failure/hacks. You can see the dilemma surely. There's also the "what ifs", what if earth is on the verge of destruction, power can be lacking, and the stargate instantly becomes the defacto best evacuation option. In such extreme measures, counting for the lights to still be on is rather wishfull thinking. Especially with nukes who emit EMP which fries electronics nonetheless. Then the iris is closed, and u can enjoy ur last moments, thinking about that Darwin award u won before total human extinction.

@@xdarrenx I would think that being inside the mountain base would protect from the worst of the EMP, but all good points.

Ackchyually... it couldn't be active open. The "kawoosh" would destroy it. The iris is closed after the event horizon stabilizes and opens when they receive the code. There is no need to close it when connection is outgoing because matter cannot come in.

Marek Suma the gate can open and close just fine with the iris closed. Its been show on plenty of episodes.

Back before it became too formulaic.

That's right, the first seasons were good.

@@lvlc6023 All of them were good, even SGU.

I'm pretty sure she was lying to them when she said she doesn't understand gates and computers.

@@jayb0g She couldn't know about Earth computers in particular, but she might've known about computers. The Geni in Pegasus for example had computers quite similar to our own. And they were only on a 1940's level of development. So it isn't unlikely for her to have used a similar device before and simply figure out how our operating systems work.

@@refulgent_fanta she's actually a crazy ancient

What's shocking is how people can't flex their imaginations; if Linea can easily cure blindness, create plagues and whip up *cold fusion* with a _plant_ , she can surely figure out a primitive computer system.

Plot twist, this is a cross-over with the Doctor Who universe, and Linea is in fact the Rani... a renegade timelord/lady with a penchant for morally questionable biological experiments. Would easily explain her mastering 'alien' technology with little more than a glance. She may have lost her TARDIS, but with the gate system the universe is her new playground.

16 high fives for you sir!

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

maybe on Mars or planet X

That destroyer has stolen the space modulator.

No, she doesn't speak trope trooper talk.

Madcap Magician she used her little knock out gizmo she used on carter.

She was let through. She wasn't a known threat

@@kirbs0001............but without authorisation, military tends to be strict about this and going around without an escort

Plot fuel.

@@epicstyle1000 She had plot armor that how she got to the gate

PULL THE LEVER KRONK!

Damn DIGITAL CRAP!!

They really needed a "unplug the damn thing" option

And of course the only manual override is in the gate room itself.

Like Mike Nelson!!!

Daisy Johnson a.k.a. Quake is the destroyer of worlds!!!

No, The Doctor, is the destroyer of worlds

"I am become death, the destroyer of worlds"

She's actually the original Thanos. She destroyed half of worlds.

If she can simply create a plague and perform other incredible feats is it so far fetched to suggest that she made a virus where the symptoms are hyper specific hallucinations. It would explain why a genocidal machiavellan character would think a debt is paid, as she could have easily made a less survivable variant.

That was a good episode ☑

Spoiler alert!!!

@Ryan Hughes Season3 Ep11 called "Past and Present"

@Ryan Hughes there were several actors that ended up playing different parts later on liker the guy who said the line "Destroyer of worlds" later plays the role of Carter's father..

@Ryan Hughes ah, I stand corrected, here's the info on him stargate.fandom.com/wiki/Simian He too ended up re-appearing in a Stargate Atlantis episode.

Yes, manual overrides are where you take control away from an automated system. So even if you're still using the computer if you are taking control from an automated system, that is a manual override. There's also the more specific manual analog override, the analog part of the name specifies the override in question is something physical rather than digital and that's probably what you're thinking of.

@@shadenox8164 in principle thats correct, but it makes no sense in this situation. If your interface is non-responsive to input a manual override that is done through the same interface is utterly useless and no one would ever design a system this way. This whole thing is a Computer interacting with a physical system (the stargate). Somewhere there are relays the computer controls which then activate power delivery to the gate and control the motors that move the ring and the iris-shield, etc. In this situation a manual override would obviously not be to type stuff into the non-responsive computer but to manually trip said relays. Whatever you type into the computer at that point is just another automation. And if the system is compromised exchanging one automation for another is probably not gonna help. Manual digital overrides are useless word constructs. Since they are indistinguishable from any other human input. Maybe you could argue they are inputs made with a higher admin authority. But if the chief of an installation talks about using “THE” override then its obviosuly gonna be a big box of breakers. Because otherwise you are implyinfg that the digital overrides are the only ones you have. Which would be the most back-asswards way to design anything.

That was part of the appeal of the series. Learning from mistakes. It's silly to think everything would be thought of right from the beginning. Otherwise they would have had an iris installed before the first mission to Abydos and against Ra.

It was interesting to me the times Teal'c had to manually dial the gate itself 🤔

Nope. Emergency stop buttons are for safety, not security. They're there in case people get shocked or caught in machinery.

E-Stop buttons aren't useful here. But deadman switches would be (where on-site operators have to deliberately "keep the button pressed down" through some kind of direct physical mechanism) - especially if some are in the gate room and some are not and armed guards are present near/between both.

And dies to replicators

Why should it? They assumed the computer would log everything, as it normally does.

I think the real problem is that she would have been long gone by the time they got their systems back up and running.

@@Matthew-li7we So what? As long as they know the sequence, they can re-dial, although I suppose she might be smart enough to dial her final destination from wherever she went initially.

Oh man. That makes my heart hurt.

She could have been a awesome villain with a bit more thought. In fact she can still be a awesome villain in a future series. Ori destroys her adopted world, leading to a mental break down and her becoming the destroyer of worlds again, immortal through the use of that chemical, an cleverer than even the smartest ancient through genetic modifications of herself.

@@DavidKnowles0 Plus she could be cast by a younger actress and thus her character could do more action when needed instead of being solely a cerebral villain, that older cast characters often get stuck with because the actor/actress playing them physically cant do certain things.

Or Homer Simpson

No actually it doesn't. Manual means not automatic. So any time a user takes control from an automated system that is a manual override. Now it they said manual analog override, you would have a point as the analog part specifies that. Manual overrides can absolutely be done using computers.

Pull the plug basically. Cut off the gate's juice, no kawoosh.

Good spot!

it's not impossible. gate address are based of 6 symbols to get the destination and seventh to get the origin. but nothing say you couldn't use the origin as one of the symbols to determine the destination.

@@karhedin i just can't see the logic in it thats all :/

@@karhedin That's an interesting thought. I had actually never considered that. Of course, the whole concept of this is bullsh!t in real life anyway, but as far as the show universe is concerned, I think you might be right.

@@SGtidbits you know 6 symbols AND the origin. if you push a symbol on a DHD its lights up as long a the gate active. i dont think the used symbols can be used twice in an adress

She left them alive and unharmed.

She also gave them the digital model of her chemical fusion. Though I don't think they ever bring up the bio-fusion again. Would of been neat seeing a Botanist in Prometheus engineering. Lol

It only has to make sense to the character saying it. It doesn't have to be objectively true..

If so, this is not her finest work.

That's what makes them the good guys.

You're welcome

They didnt add an iris at that moment right?

@@BlackDiamond2718 honestly I cant remember what I meant xDD

@@TheCaptainCrack its fine

As you watch Stargate, you'll notice a *LOT* of design flaws in how their systems operate which were known to be terrible ideas at least a decade before the reasons why were being shown off in Stargate.

If think of it as 6+1 there is no reason you couldn't use the same symbol for the 7th slot as any of the others. They only have so many symbols to work with and there are many many gates so why wouldn't they be able to use whatever symbol is for the point of origin as the 7th symbol as well as in any other slot at the same time. example - code 1234567 and code 1234577 would lead you to 2 different places. In this example if you are not able to use the number 7 in the first 6 slots you are limiting the amount of addresses you can assign. I also see an example of this in the clip. From the clip it would be 1237567... which is a perfectly legit address. So you do not have a point of origin twice in the same address only 1 the 7th symbol... you are just reusing symbols for sake of addressing space.

eboskie1 first that’s not how the gates have been demonstrated and explained how they work. It’s 6 spacial points that triangulate with a point of origin, how it became in the SG1 (not using the film interpretation) every gate has a main set of 37 matching symbols that are the same to every gate within that galaxy but the 38th is a unique symbol to that planet, it’s how they are able after Abydos to be able to get back so easy, they now know what the earth address is so it’s only a matter of identifying which new symbol is on the gate that’s the point of origin. There are a few cases where the gates did not have a position which was equivalent to its space position but this was explained as modified gates which likely during its periodic updates encrypts a secondary position in the database in the event one of those gates is dialled.

For one, the stargate works fine if there is something in front of it. That's how the iris performs. It is so close to the event horizon that it just doesn't make a whirlpool effect. Anything further away from that distance, and the whirlpool forms, vaporizing everything it touches, as was seen in this episode much earlier. But if there is something completely obscuring the opening, such as a ton of dirt or the iris moved back to where the event horizon forms, then it does not activate. So, yes, they could build something like a piston that would block it, but it would have to be in the aperture just right, and quite possibly very, very heavy. Both very dangerous and not fail-proof ingredients. But they did come up with actual manual overrides later, learning from what others had done, including Plague Witch. That's part of what made this series good, was they acknowledged a lot of loopholes that enemies had taken advantage of, and corrected them within the storyline. But, every now and then a scifi tale(Star Trek included) needs the enemy to actually win and get what they want, to make the challenge bigger the next time they meet.

@@samsonguy10k Yes, I agree. I just like to think about how funny it would be if they made a piston that did enter into the stargate, but then the power fails so they just look at each other and goes, "whose ideas was this again?"

SG-1 encountered Linea again in a later episode. People on the planet had suffered memory loss, including Linea, who also was much younger herself, and didn't remember being Linea.

Whatever happened to her?

@@MagruderSpoots season four or five, they found that she'd set off a bomb on some planet that de-aged everyone and killed most of the population. The survivors all had amnesia and the SGC helped work on a cure. The episode is kind of a roller coaster and I don't want to spoil it, but I definitely recommend you watch it.

Yeah, I agree that she was underutilized. Having a bio terrorist on the loose would have made for some interesting episodes

@@MagruderSpoots There's a follow up episode in season 3.

@Eric Cartman Stargate could and should still be airing new episodes right now ☝

They find her in a future episode, way later. But she's not like this anymore. And she doesn't even know that she was this.

This guy emigrated to the Pegasus galaxy.

indeed. but I doubt the person who animated it for the show knew much about organic chemistry

Yes. Sort of.

Teryl Rothery(who played Dr Fraiser), wasnt considered a major part of the cast, she was a reccuring guest star. This allowed the writers to kill her off(for reasons i still cannot understand).

I think that fans of a show are prepared to accept plotholes and gaps in logic, as long as it is entertaining. One example(and there are so many), would be the episode 1969, in which SG-1 find themselves back in 1969, and have to find their own way home. They ended back in 1969 because of a solar flar which hit the gate as they went through. So, they manage to find a large telescope, which is left totally unstaffed, so they can plot the next solar flares. Then, when they manage to find the Stargate, it is again, totally ungarded, that is, until, the moment they are about to go through, guards appear, and fire shots at them. fortunately, as they go through the gate, the bullets veer off in another direction, thereby missing them, so convenient.

Patience, young padawan.

They often use the close-up of the dialing computer that shows the dialing of Abydos or Chulak in the first two seasons. Often you can see in the background that a different address is actually dialing, e.g. in "Solitudes".
