Entirely not the same device. Julian intends to build either a Goa'uld speech <=> english speech, or at the very worst, Goa'uld speech <=> English text. Literally, the device makes the speak language check. It's the one speaking. It's vocabulary will be as good in Goa'uld as Ashley's +...

Julian smiles brightly at her, for the first time, seeming confident. He'd impressed her, and a congratulations from the President wouldn't have meant as much. "Loads... But let's take it one invention at a time." "And by the way... We're off duty. It's Julian." He smiles warmly at her again.

"I think so.. It doesn't have the camera attachment, so reading written stuff wouldn't be possible without adding one... hmm... It might need a bigger memory card, but we could probably pull it off, sure. Hell, worst case scenario, I could build one about this much bigger (he motions with his...

Agreed. And it really is an IC-want of Julian's to do this. It's an area of interest to him. I envisioned him doing it since I first had the character concept.

Julian makes no more overt motions at the moment... not wanting to push it in front of the boss. Ashley has made it abundantly obvious that she's treating this card game as a job interview, and mucking that up for her wouldn't be the best relationship move. "Well... The speech recognition and...

"Damn... and here I thought I was cool for knowing the Old Norse! Between the three of us, with two different people to confirm meaning and provide voice patterns, we could do a really good job on this thing. The only other thing that would be nice would be a male voice speaking it, but that's...

"Gate material? Wonder what you'd say about me." He blushes a bit and suddenly finds his cards really interesting. "Well.. If you ever want to give it a go, I'm certainly game. I'm sure they'd give us some time to work on it, or we could just approach it like a hobby until they OK'ed it.

"Garage door opener? Talk about low-teching a name." He laughs. "I'd love to try and put one together. I really want to get involved in developing things with and about the tech we find out there, as opposed to just playing with other people's toys. I honestly think it's no harder than the...

"Is that how they know when to close the gate's iris?" "Maybe not a replacement, but a useful substitute... For teams that don't have a linguist, or got separated from her? For written languages, you could graft a digital camera onto the PDA and do character recognition. With the image...

"Your point's well made, ma'am. Though, it surprises me that you haven't come up with some sort of hand-held translation device, kinda like the ones tourists use when they go to Europe for the summer. If I had access to somebody who spoke some of these alien languages conversationally, and a few...

Julian will return the smile, a bit more confident now that she's not reacting like most girls would to his advances, such as throwing the table at him. "Well, I did pass the weapons training in basic, obviously..." .oO(5 years ago... on my fifth try...) "Amazing.. The frost part could be...

"No offense meant, at all.. I didn't guess the scientist-types went through. I figured they stayed here and worked via radio and with samples and probes. Some of the worlds I've heard described don't sound very hospitable to researchers and gear-heads, is all..." Julian looks at his cards...

"Who? Sorry... Bear in mind, I've been here 2 days..."

.oO(You stepped in it now, Jules...) "I guess I've just pictured gate teams as the real warrior types... Guys like Col. O'Neal and that Teal'c guy that's always with him..."

"Cowardly lion?" Julian blushes a bit, his feelings betraying him to his cheeks. There was a part of him that screamed to raise his hand, the closeted geek yearning to go where no man had gone before. The Star Wars-suckled kid who wanted to know if there were really Wookiees out there. But it...

"SG-14? I didn't know you had already set up your new team, Colonel." "Wierd. That defies the entire idea behind the Stargate's positioning system. Figure, six for the destination point, one for the point of origin... I guess... Well, yeah. Since you don't have symbols for extragalactic...

"If we had enough of the materials, and we could examine a working model, we could stand a shot at it. And in my estimation, repairing the DHD would be a bigger deal from a knowledge standpoint than a usability one. Sure, we have Dr. Carter's computer. But if we could examine how the DHD works...

"Well.. You seem to know a lot about the Stargate tech... Do you think with your knowledge, and mine, we'd have a chance to fix the DHD? Assuming we could get hold of it, of course? I'm sure that there's DHDs all over on other worlds, so a team could examine a few and see how they're supposed to...

"I might be able to get somewhere with another NID key disk, to use as a sample. Does SGC know where the people who wrote this disk are? Maybe they could get it out of them, if they could track them down in the Stargate." "And just out of curiosity... You said Earth's DHD isn't "plugged in" to...

"I've been trying. The problem is that there's no pattern to the encryption, so there's no way to break the pattern, or even see if you're on the right track. The only real way to get it decrypted is to have the key pattern, which would probably have been stored on some separate disk. It's...
