minus-squareAmyAye@nord.publinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up19·8 days agoThe Transporter has a pattern buffer. Why didn’t they just keep copying one Redshirt guy to save lives. Like Mickey 17. “Time for an away mission Redshirt.” But they don’t tell him where, and then put him in the buffer. He will just, always be ready.

minus-squareBillyClark@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·7 days agoWhen you think about it, it’s weird that that asshole dude wanted to disassemble and possibly destroy Data to copy him when they could have just copied him using a transporter.

minus-squareHonytawk@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9·8 days agoMaybe Star Trek Captains have a sort of Meta knowledge? They know when they send important characters, they will most likely all come back. So by not sending redshirts, the captain is just looking out for the crew!
minus-squarenomy@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·7 days agoThere’s one redshirt, Riker. Maybe it’s a diplomatic mission and someone needs tromboned.
minus-squareWhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·7 days ago Well, at least we know they will return. Unless one of their contracts is up for renegotiation.
