  • That actually makes me think, would it theoretically be possible to automate ship repair with transporter technology? All the time they have ships coming in with giant chunks missing.

    If you are able to get a high resolution scan of the current state of the vessel, and have the plans to build it, couldn't they set up a specialized transporter to transport the damaged bits away, and transition area that is destroyed, and then replace it with new parts as needed?

    Basically do some a similar repair method from Space Engineers, just fancier with transporters.

  • Just avoid areas with life signs. Person in the room? Delay the transporter sweep for an hour and check again. Or alternatively just don't clear dead skin cells/hair/dust within a 2ft radius of a given life sign, and do maybe 3 sweeps a day.

  • Given that they have the ability to select pretty much whatever material they want with the transporters, I imagine it wouldn't be too hard for them to do a once a day transport for all dust/debris particles directly into space, or some containment unit of their choosing. Same goes for pretty much any other cleaning task.

  • The air is plenty clean as it is

    Tell that to the people in East Palestine Ohio. Tell that to the people that live near coal plants.

    as long as you don’t live in California

    Doesn't matter where you live if the planet is uninhabitable.

  • Agreed. Though it has crossed my mind that the in universe explanation for why the Federation is so enlightened and willing to care for all of its citizens because of the horrors Earth went through.

    But yeah, definitely would like to avoid WW3/the Bell Riots.

  • Instead the way to go about this is MORE democracy not less of it.

    Agreed. Some good steps to take:

    • Switching to approval/STAR voting (far fewer flaws than FPTP, generaly better than ranked)
    • Requiring all companies to be worker owned democracies. We don't accept dictators or monarchists in government, so why would we accept that kind of tyranny in our work?
    • Shit loads of anti-corruption efforts. As of right now, politics is controlled with money, and politicians effectively get a free pass to use their office for personal gain. That shit needs to end.
