They never talk about the Federation Supreme Court, but I'd be willing to bet that at any given time they are hearing a case on legalizing humanoid hologram marriage.

There is a class system in the Star Trek. The Gold shirts the upper class, the blues tech professionals, the Reds are the dispensable underclass.

Sunswipe posted:Red Dwarf did something similar with Rimmer early on. To get him off the ship he had to be in a "holo cage," which was pretty much your idea with added cage to emphasise how trapped Rimmer was/add comedic humiliation. They ditched that later on and eventually went with the light bee idea so he could do stuff outside the ship without needing a bulky prop. Also later on they made him a hard-light hologram, so he could interact with stuff, if I remember correctly. Now, if Voyager had done something where away mission Doctor could only exist as a non-tangible hologram, that could be interesting, too. He's able to be networked to sensors and tricorders, but he's not able to actually touch anything. This maybe forces field-medic Tom to actually get his hands dirty under the Doctors instructions. Something that had been on my mind lately is that after watching some random episodes, I sort of wish Tom had been a Cardassian instead of a human. Openly Cardassian character before Seska's reveal, prisoner in Federation Space who is looking at a potential early release in the name of 'good will' with the Cardassians taking care of the Maquis issue, distrusted by both sides, etc.

I really like when Rimmer became hard light it means he was entirely indestructible but he was still a useless inept coward so it didn't help much at all. I enjoyed Red dwarf (while the two writers were together) but the setting is actually really cool and I wish they could have upped the cool scify vs pure comedy. The creators wanted a fairly realistic universe with no aliens and simple pre-FTL travel. Everything the characters find is 6 million year old human artifacts and monsters we created. Discovering 6 million years worth of human history as they slowly made their way "home" was actually a pretty rad concept. Where did the humans go? Why are there only abandoned facilities and the odd insane robot or genetically engineered monster? Could have been cool to explore.

It's been shown that it's not an issue to patch holographic terminals into the ship's controls, and you could be in your quarters but also be on duty by having the computer simulate the rest of the bridge crew in real time around you, and you in real time around them. Computer, bring up holo-bridge, now run protocol "nude Tane"

Tricky D posted:They never talk about the Federation Supreme Court, but I'd be willing to bet that at any given time they are hearing a case on legalizing humanoid hologram marriage. in the series finale the Doctor is married to a lady and everyone seems super cool with it, or at least ok with the fact that she's a living human instead of another hologram and then they bring up his hot young wife later on and how he's going to outlive her because he's an immortal hard light hologram and he's all "yep! anyway!!!" the whole issue of hologram sentience in star trek is super hosed up, i mean holograms have been able to pass as living creatures for decades. you legitimately couldn't tell the difference between a hologram and an actual person until you tried to turn one of them off but nope, hey these ones have outlived their usefulness so i guess let's ship them off to the mines or something? it's something they touched on with Data but i don't think Trek every had the space cajones to ever push the idea of it to its logical conclusion of some kind of artificial persons revolution. could you imagine a revolt by even half the holodeck programs in the Federation?

Wasn't there a ship of rebelling holograms in Voyager that the doctor joined up with? Of course they weren't Federation. Federation holograms are perfect. It's like on teen shows its always Felicity's roommate who gets into smack, never Felicity herself.

Actually from what I can remember the leader looked like a Bajoran so they were probably the ones that Hirogens made based on Voyager tech so they were Federation technically.
