Your body is too dumb to heal or recreate your teeth more than once, although I think some people for no reason have had more than two sets. It can't even aim the teeth right most of the time. DURRRR THERES TOTALLY SPACE LEFT. MAKE FOUR MORE LOL

Nothing in Jurassic World is natural, we have always filled gaps in the genome with the DNA of other animals. And if the genetic code was pure, many of them would look quite different. But you didn't ask for reality, you asked for more teeth.
This whole thread is about making GBS threads and regrowing teeth now? The real problem with Star Trek TNG is that every time someone stands up, they have to pull their shirts down.

Nowadays, you can do anything that you want; anal, oral, fisting, but you need to be wearing gloves, condoms, protection.
The Culture does this way better when you can just dope your brains to bits because people have a load of drug glands and can then just turn them off whenever they want which is great.

also in the Culture they wouldn't care about the transporter problem and they do back people up and like how long it was before your last backup is how "bad" a death is. they also make copies of people's brains and sometimes they mash them back together after a while. sometimes the copies don't even care if you just kill them if they haven't been split for long since they feel that their shared identity with the original will persist

making a lot of copies of you would be worse than death though because it would be like disintegrating your identity

I don't know how I'd feel about that whole backup copy thing. Like, the Minds don't seem to have much of a problem with it but as a Human I probably would because my present consciousness is still terminated after my backup.

Holy poo poo you guys we go through this every six months

Time clones you already. There ain't nothing connecting your brain now to your brain in the future, and similarly, the past. Such a thing would be a monstrous violation of causality, GR, QM and logic.

Moreover your time clones are altered to a massive extent, just as a regular part of existing and having biology, that the Star Trek replicator is less of a suicide booth than a diner booth is. It actually sends your exact particles to the destination, in order, to be reassembled, a vast and impossible extravagance, exactly the same as they were. There will never be two copies of you with more 'continuity' than the ones between transport operations.

You're like a whore too afraid of catching an STI from themselves to masturbate.

yeah, why doesn't someone like the Borg use this to replicate billions of copies of themselves and their ships and weapons?

because Star Trek is "safe" sci-fi that is afraid to explore the actual implications of their technology. it may as well be a fantasy novel.

same reason that TNG has the exact same technology as TOS, they couldn't develop any new space technology in 100 years apparently
