I'd check into a library with public computers but that's just me.
Christian felt groggy and sleepy. He'd eaten too much at dinner but it had been so good and Mom and Dad didn't get the chance to take them out that often. Christian felt like his stomach was about to explode. He needed to lie down for several hours. He could hear his siblings arguing about something. His sister, Alicia had called shotgun and for whatever reason there father had let her have it. He was sitting on the opposite side of the car behind the driver's seat while Christian's brother Marcus was sitting in the middle. "I'm telling you Mark." Alicia said from the front before she was interrupted. "No way, Battlestar Galactica is way better than Babylon 5." They continued on for several minutes before there mother intervened. "Kids, we have two televisions at home, you can both watch whatever it is you want." She said patiently from behind the steering wheel. "But..." They both said at the same time. "No arguments you either watch something together or you don't now stop arguing." Both sighed and resigned themselves to looking out the window.
Christian was on the verge of falling asleep when he was jolted away as the car was sent flying in one direction. He looked ans saw the other half of the car crumpled like a tin can. His mother was bleeding from the forehead and he couldn't see his father. There was another impact on the other side moth likely another car that couldn't stop. The door bend inward trapping his arm and cutting into it. The front seat bent backwards pinning his knees. The roof collapsed around him sealing him inside a metal coffin.
He jerked away with a yell and he heard several glass something or others shatter [he shattered those with his powers FYI] but he couldn't tell what they were because his second sight was gone. He desperately tried to sit up but restraints tied him down to the table. He couldn't go anywhere. He was trapped in a hospital in darkness. He need to go now. He pulled and wrenched on the cuffs and if they had not been padded he would have bloodied his arms. "SOMEBODY GET ME OUTTA!" he cried desperately hoping there was some compassionate soul left in this place.

Can nobody hear a word I say? I mention the Asgard Knowledge Core and it's like after those words nobody reads the rest of what I've written. Whatever it was that they built on the Phoenix didn't look exactly like the one installed on the Odyssey but it was similar. It was clearly human made and thus shouldn't have all the bells and whistles of the original. After all Earth can't build Time Dilation tech or a good number of the more complex Asgard systems so deciding how they work shouldn't be a problem because we don't have the ability to create them.
We also wouldn't be able to recreate the Asgard database itself either. We don't have the tech to recreate the storage systems that they used for it and I have to imagine that much like the Ancient database we wouldn't be able to fit very much of it on conventional earth computer storage.
I just wanted to know if there was an Asgard based terminal that regulated the basic Asgard systems that the ship has such as hyper drive, beaming, plasma weapons and the like as well perhaps a few of the cool things from the core that we've managed to decipher.

Hey this is for the GMs.
I was watching Stargate Atlantis, the Last Man. You know the one were Shepard is sent 48,000 into the future. When Carter is finishing the systems of the alternate reality 304, the Phoenix there was something I noticed. They installed an Asgard control interface system that very much resembled the Odyssey's Asgard Knowledge Core. Obviously since the ship was in disarray and the IOA only grudgingly gave it to Carter it was not the original but it seems likely to me that a human recreation of the Knowledge Core might be standard issue aboard 304s to regulate the Asgard based systems. I'm sure it would have neither the data base of the Asgard nor some of the more advanced tech such as time dilation or replication of supplies being only a human made copy but I was wondering if that would be included on the Langford.
What's LA?

Soooooooo... about that CS.
I'm still here. Been waiting for you and Melkor to get a bit further before I crash the party.
Might I suggest a program that reads the text to you.
Hey at this link there are four of the same post. All four are a duplicate of a fifth one on the next page so if you could remove them for the sake of organization that would be great.
Duplicate posts. This and the three below it.

YES! I finally get to post! Alright!
Aeryn stood behind an outcropping of rock on the base of the mountain opposite the one of the Capital City. His breath was coming in ragged gasps from his run and he struggled to control the flow of air without also Asphyxiating himself. There was a team of two bounty hunters not ten feet away. He'd been pursued by them all morning. Most would not go after a target this high up the opposite mountain but these were persistent. They seemed bent on getting their prize or die while trying.
Aeryn had committed no crime worthy of the manhunt that had chased him for the last nine years. His only folly, being favored by a false god that stole his body and his life from him. Amenthes had ruled this planet until nine years ago when an uprising incited by the SGC of the Tau'ri had torn him from his throne and an undercover Tok'ra had killed him with some very finely tuned equipment from the ancient lab that Amenthes had presided over setting Aeryn free. At first he believed that this was the end of his suffering but he soon found out that it was only the beginning.
In his imprisonment Aeryn had grown accustomed to the presence and level of Goa'uld technology but he soon realized that the people had no knowledge of the Goa'uld or could make a distinction between Aeryn the host and Amenthes who had enslaved them. Thankfully the Jaffa had most if not all been killed. Those that survived and had not retreated through the Chappa'ai had been hunted to extinction by Halion Drennon, Tolia's new leader.
The man was the former personal slave of Aeryn... Amenthes. He had trouble making the distinction in his mind sometimes. When Amenthes grew bored of examining the ancient lab he found pleasure in torturing Halion in the most inhumane but nonlethal fashion. Halion as a result was a little unbalanced but unknown to Amenthes he had used his access to learn of Goa'uld technology. When Amenthes fell Halion took control of his temples, his weapons and the few ships that remained. Halion seized power and now hunted Aeryn looking for revenge. The bounty on Aeryn's head was twice as large if he was brought in alive.
These bounty hunters were persistent and they were not going away. Aeryn realized that he could run till the ancient returned and he still wouldn't have lost them. He needed to show them the power of "Amenthes", scare or injure them into backing down. Around his neck was a stiff leather necklace that held a clear jewel right over his voice box. The crystal had been confiscated by Amenthes in years prior from a man who had tried to use it to pose as a Goa'uld. It altered the voice patters of the user to sound as though they carried a symbiote by reresonating the subject’s voice patterns.
Aeryn touched the crystal and it started to glow a faint green. He knew it was working. He held out the Silver Kara'Kesh around his hand and stepped out from behind the outcrop. He knew that Goa'uld's had enormous egos that they carried over to their position of "god". If Aeryn hoped to fool these hunters he had to reproduce that ego.
"I am Amenthes your rightful lord. Kneel before your God and you may yet be spared."
He said in the most towering and powerful voice he could muster. The two hunters as foolish as they looked clearly didn't buy it. They both opened staff weapons that they must have acquisition from Halion's new government and started to fire. Aeryn blinked once and the shield from the Kara'kesh activated blocking the shots. He held it up to them intending to send them flying but nothing happened. He looked at the crystal; it was blinking in and out fully powered for a moment and totally dead the next. Running it so often with the last eleven years had nearly depleted the three naquadah power cores. The shield would fail soon and if it did he was toast.
He quickly withdrew his Zat'nik'tel and stunned the first hunter. The other dived for cover and kept firing. Aeryn could feel that the Kara'kesh didn't have much energy left. He pulled a Prim'ta Ceremonial knife from his belt and threw it at the hunter. It didn't go anywhere near it's mark but it distracted the man long enough for Aeryn to cover the distance between them and hit him hard over the head with his staff weapon. He was out cold. The hunts and close calls were getting more frequent and with only him left it was getting harder to defend himself. He needed help. What he really needed was her, Altenya but it wasn't worth dwelling on the fallen Tok'ra now. She was gone.
Aeryn retrieved the staff weapons of both of his assailants. He knew a cave not far from here that would do as shelter for the night and he'd long learned to mask his tracks. Who knew he might be able to interface the staff weapon naquadah cores with the Kara'kesh. They weren't the same in design but they were similar technologies and he might be able to work up a solution. He would not be alive if it weren't for the Kara'kesh. He still needed it, he had to recharge it somehow.
Halion rolled his eyes at the man standing facing him with the gun. Tonak had a flare for dramatic entranced and this was no exception. "Arthur," he said to the little balding man who had been discussing the merits of some sort of political structure that he hadn't been paying attention to. "You can leave; shut the door on your way out." Arthur looked like he was about to wet himself as he hurriedly picked up his most important documents and exited the room.
"Tonak," said Halion mildly completely ignoring the weapon trained on him. "I should thank you, he was about to start talking about the merits of..." Halion paused realizing that he hadn't heard a word that Arthur had said. "Well whatever it was it sounded boring. Drink?" He said moving to a little desk were he uncorked a bottle that had an alcohol made from the berries of the forest (Gin). I've more than enough to go around. Amenthes it seems was fond of the stuff though I believe his kind’s healing powers prevent them from fully enjoying its merits."
Halion poured two glasses not waiting to see if Tonak wanted any. If he refused Halion was perfectly happy to have the other glass as well. "So Tonak, what can I do for the Lucian Alliance. Another friend you need hidden or perhaps a meeting point for a new Kassa supplier, or maybe you simple need muscle." Halion listen to the man talk feeling as if the conversation were dragging on. "Kane checks in far too often and worries far too much. I became bored of hearing his voice. You can take one of these bottles back as apology." Halion said downing his glass while Tonak's remained untouched on the table.
At the mention of the planet's Goa'uld Halion's eyes narrowed dangerously. "Do you think if I knew where he was I would not hunt him down personally?" Halion asked his voice making it clear that Tonak was treading on dangerous ground. Halion eased a bit. "I've recently received a report saying he was spotted on the opposite mountain several leagues from the ancient lab. Tell me though who are these people you wish to introduce him to? Enemies you wish dead? I should warn you he has not had the time to torture anyone in the last several years and rarely kills. It seems he's lost his taste for it since he lost his throne."
Halion refilled his glass before adding. "There was something else? A second think that you wished accomplished?"
