I'd like to see a fanmade production of the Voyager crew attending a sumo basho upon their return home, that sport half the bridge crew followed passionately, remember? You could have Tuvok trying to buy handprints in the Vulcan live long and prosper gesture, Janeway, the eternal scientist, illicitly scanning her favorites with a tricorder to update her personal logs on their body fat composition. Chakotay missing the whole thing while out on his vision quest to buy a pinku bento box for his gohan (rice) and peyote (yakuza speed) Ah yes, that was no mere throwaway vignette desperate to staple some personality onto a profoundly unpersonable crew, big fans of sumo wrestling the crew of Voyager all were.

Star Trek: These Guys episode 2 is about not having access to the same medical facilities as federation citizens and watching Dr. Crusher fawn over the needless holodeck injuries of the crews complement of fake gymnasts and kayakers. Dr. Bev tosses the These Guys a handful of mixed, loose moldy pills for their searing back pain and shorn vertebrae and acts like she is doing them a favor, while really she's just scouting the These Guys for a trade for some fancy flower seeds with that reckless spine transplant doctor. shadow puppet of a fucked around with this message at 19:25 on Aug 25, 2015 |

Given the number of missions that involve emergency transporter rescues, shouldn't the enterprise D have moved Picard's office to 40 feet down the hall and put in a bank of transporters in its place, so you'd not have to rely on your comm badge reaching O'Brien down in his pit to get the message and time it right? Wouldn't it help him to see a loving view screen of that which he needs to target for transport? Oh wait, Livingston wanted something with a view. Captain's privilege I guess.

All I know is that the Enterprise functions as a rescue ship 25% of the time and the bridge explicitly excludes the person that operates the greatest emergency rescue device ever invented. "Number one, please ensure I never hear a shred of advice or input from that glorified elevator operator prior to me directly asking for it" LCARS, for all its contextual wonderment seems to be unable to replicate the two finger uppie slidey gesture on any other surface. Ah well. I guess I just enjoy being annoyed by Trek continuity. Worf: "Captian, the Dyson sphere is made of carbon neutronium, our weapons would be totally ineffective!" <exits sphere> Well, lets not bother carving out a few pieces to wrap around Ten Forward or anything. Nope, lets never mention this magical, space-proven, constructable, corrosion resistant, plentiful, incredibly strong, sensor-proof and capable of crushing the hull of a starship material ever again.

chaosbreather posted:how exactly would you suggest 'carving out a chunk'? chaosbreather posted:The Defiant has it right, it uses ablative armour, which means it's easier to destroy than the ship is. The destruction of the armour uses so much energy than a minimum is transferred to the hull. A stronger material would just channels and focus the blast energy, making the ship far easier to destroy. Ah yes ablative armor. Just the thing for a deep space mission, armor that needs to be continually replenished through extra vehicular activity. They should have detached the saucer section and stuck the warp-drivey part on the back of the sphere and tootled around the galaxy as a giant hamster ball, using the main gate as a gun barrel to unleash some hot death from that sun bouncing around the flying dyson sphere.

When two old geezers stirred up a pail of blood scrapings and jizz to remake Kahless and it produced a weak old runt with the voice of a pack a day smoker, and the Empire still accepted him as a living god, well thats when Worf should have seen the light and walked away from the whole mess and got really into Nausicaan culture.

Without a cohesive mass media (Neelix's TV show was a revelation to them) how do they get enough space-southerners to sign up under delusions of fighting for glory and country, especially when there is no country to fight for and no anthems to weep patriotically over? "Hey kid, do you want to die from plasma burns while hoisting barrels in a warehouse while being bombarded from a million miles away in order to kill your fellow humans so you can protect the trade rights and treaty agreements made to an oppressive Cardassian regime of hideous aliens that hate you on a genetic level? You do? Then walk past those banks of free transporters to anywhere, free universities, free restaurants, free thrilling sports from across the galaxy and walk past those bacchanalian rows upon rows of sexual delights contained in the free holodecks, and join up as an enlisted man in Starfleet!"

TEAYCHES posted:and yea if if somehow people werent full of implants and directly interfaced w/ the ship you still wouldnt ever need more than a dozen people on the ship, everything can be automatic. star trek is not to be seriously thought about as anything other than a half-thought out backdrop to stories of ethics and character "Ensign X to Lt. Y. Hey come here, I need you to see this. No, don't transport over, walk across the ship. No I wont tell you anything about the yet-unknown incident/object/person I need you to see that would inform your choice of transit to my location. Just arrive and be ready to be surprised by the exposition I'll deliver after the commercial. What is a commercial you ask? Its complicated. Maybe ask Neelix on your way over. Its no rush.

The Shelliak had none of their poo poo and told them to GFTO. Darmok-ians had their way with them and would only deal on their terms. The Borg beat them from pillar to post. The Romulans use the Feds line in the sand stances against them all the time. The federation is weak. Just having the most lunch money to pay off a host of bullies does not lessen your victimhood.

Entropic posted:Does Conservation of Momentum apply with Star Trek transporters? It seems like it must not because otherwise when you beamed someone up from a planet they'd smear across the wall. But then there's that episode where Ezri makes a magic rifle that transports moving bullets, so And the feeling of being inside the wall when transported at high warp. So the answer is, yes, when they need it to and not when ever they don't specify it does. Also when they transported fake Tal Shiar Troi off that Romulan ship she beamed in facing sideways, a series first. This never happened again in any other episode.

Amazon Studios is developing a TV show based on Galaxy Quest So clearly people capable of market research in 2015 know that there is a market for nostaligic episodic SciFi ships n' spacesuits TV. Fuckin' Paramount and their teletype machines and mimeographs don't have a clue what people want and are going to put out something soft boiled by around 2042.
