Can the transporter filter out all the shit in your intestines, so you don't have to crap?
Can the transporter filter out all the shit in your intestines, so you don't have to crap?
No, it constructs an exact copy of what you were before. This includes your shit. A more interesting question is that if you shit yourself, would it remove the shit?
Poop.
why no use the buffer to make a clone army?
This. Once you go through the transporter, you'll never have to worry about shit or anything else again. That's your next clone's problem.
Nah its not within o'briens job description to deal with poopey pants
I don't like the future
"Hey O'brian, beam me down to the surface...but minus the old number two if you know what I mean hehe"
You need to play SOMA
All the food was beamed in by the computer.. there is nothing to shit when youre eating imaginary pixels
It's never been coincidence that people in both universes are constantly talking to "The Computer" as an omnipresent force around them.
what about all the bacteria in your bowels. are they cloned?
Computer, get me a gf
the real question is where does the shit go? into space? are there countless frozen loaves just floating around out there?
computer, transport the gaseous contents of counselor troi's anus directly into my nose
the waste is neutralized, and itsmatter converted to energy that then goes on to do anything from power the engines, to produce a concoction in a ship's replicator for human or alien consumption
Yes. Think of it as selecting a volume and transporting everything within that volume. However, you can choose to not transport certain things like discharging weapons, etc.
Apparently, site to site transporting is very energy intensive. That's why they don't use it often.
Probably. In one of the last episodes I watched, in S2, it filtered out a fast aging disease.
"I gotta shit so bad we'll have enough dilithium to warp to the Delta quadrant and back"
you know, you could just scan her with a tricorder and replicate that compound to your heart's content in your quarters
in the replication process energy is converted to matter, the process where waste is repatriated turns matter into energy
so...
what if you ordered shit from the replicator? would you have to specify hot and steamy? black or green? rabbit pellets or diarea?
Question:
How they clean their assholes after taking a shit?
I doubt they wipe with something like Neanderthals did thousands of years ago.
>Inb4 3 seashells.
I suppose that stands to reason, picard does ask fore tea hot after all, there may be a default temperature setting for any bio matter replicated by machines. Furthermore, there probably is a species in the federation that ingests a fertilizer type food that could be the facsimile of the feces of an animal from its planet (much like a dung beetle, or a plant based species).
You mean like someone order's a replica of a certain someone's creamy log?
Keep in mind what you order is fed back into 24th century's Google or Amazon's advertising profile on you.
"No!" they just waved their wands and it went away so they often would relieve themselves wherever they stood
could the transporter transport itself?
Voyager references it. How that works I have no idea.
Yes, in the original series they can cure diseases or reverse aging using the transporter. They could definitely microwave out some poops from an earlier pre poop save state.
why hasn't anyone used the transporter to create a clone army
In the Trekverse, I don't know if you can selectively edit personality traits like they did in Star Wars when they did that.
If they can't, it'd just be a huge fucking pain in the ass dealing with thousands of the same person, especially once a few of them decide there's an alias problem that needs resolving.
transporters are physically impossible and ruin the show
but can they transport bread?
so is warp drive, sweatie.
this is why i love this board
I've watched episodes where O'Brien disarms a weapon in transit, I'm pretty sure the magical transporter could remove shit from your colon.
>"Hey O'brian, beam me down to the surface...but minus the old number two if you know what I mean hehe
Why did make me laugh so hard?
