Also, stop bringing every random person who boards the ship to the bridge!

And implement badge-entry for engineering.

Lack of circuit breakers and seatbelts.

The way I figure, if the inertial dampers fail, everyone is gooified regardless of restraints.

Where are the inertial dampeners when in battle. Seems like every battle we have some one flying across the bridge.

And who the hell has been packing the consoles with rocks?

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Engineering says the console doesn't work without them.

Then I said, okay, but why assembled in Satanic runes?

Just be glad they aren't packing boxes of nails.

Also why are there flames erupting from the consoles anyways. Shouldn't those just be a bunch of computers? Do future computers run off propane or something?

"Plasma conduits"

Sounds safe to me.

I always found it hilarious plot convenience, either there's absolutely no security, or there's complete 3D holographic imaging available for reconstruction. Whichever is more convenient

Similar to surveillance, but the lack of pre-emptive warnings.

"Captain there's an unauthorized shuttle launch/transport"

"Can you use the tractor beam/get a lock on them?"

"They're too far away/too much interference"

"Can we please get a warning before the thing actually happens next time ensign?"

The imagination of a tv show writer .... that is the greatest security threat to the federation

Ever see tv show writers in 24th century? There's a reason why they don't exist in their time period.

"Help! Help! I'm being repressed!" - some 24th century ensign...
