[03:53]	IsambardPrince	I recall on Star Trek some people won't use food replicators and insist on cooking from scratch.
[03:54]	IsambardPrince	But where are they getting the food to cook from?
[03:54]	IsambardPrince	They're in deep space, nobody has a farm, nobody has ever said anything about a hydroponics bay.
[03:56]	MinceR	i wonder if it's ok to them to transport food
[03:57]	MinceR	otherwise it might get tricky to get the ingredients on board
● May 21
[04:04]	IsambardPrince	On Earth, fresh food may not be a problem.
[04:04]	IsambardPrince	Transporting it long distances may be another story.
[04:04]	MinceR	i meant teleporting
[04:05]	admfubar	they use stasis fields to store them
[04:05]	MinceR	:)
[04:05]	IsambardPrince	Also, they mention that their transporter and food replicator technology is very similar.
[04:05]	MinceR	indeed
[04:05]	MinceR	which means that if they need to get the ingredients into the ship, the whole thing ends up being for naught
[04:05]	IsambardPrince	I recall an episode of Voyager where they had to hide some people in the "transport buffer" and occasionally re-materialize them so the pattern wouldn't break down.
[04:06]	IsambardPrince	Apparently it can only hold matter in energy form for so long.
[04:06]	IsambardPrince	Why?
[04:07]	IsambardPrince	We also know that transporter accidents can accidentally create two people out of one (Riker) and re-materialize you in an alternate universe (the mirror one, for instance).
[04:08]	IsambardPrince	So there's a lot of reasons to be skeptical of this thing.
[04:08]	MinceR	maybe they forgot to implement memory refresh
[04:08]	IsambardPrince	Dr. McCoy hated using it.
[04:09]	IsambardPrince	It's plausible that the transporter kills whoever used it and it's a different person that steps out on the other end.
[04:09]	IsambardPrince	If such a thing existed, I wouldn't want to use it.
[04:10]	MinceR	stasis fields remind me of this >> https://tyrian.fandom.com/wiki/Alambusol

[04:10]	IsambardPrince	A stasis field would be different. Those don't break you down, store you as energy, and rebuild you someplace else.
[04:11]	IsambardPrince	It would either inhibit cellular function or remove you as an event in spacetime.

[23:41]	IsambardPrince	There's a VHS subreddit full of collectors.
[23:41]	IsambardPrince	I noticed a few people turned their basement into a "video rental store" to amuse themselves, one guy had like 20,000 tapes on the shelves down there.
[23:41]	IsambardPrince	I didn't even realize there were 20,000 VHS releases.
[23:42]	IsambardPrince	I do agree in some ways that VHS was a better format. You never stuck it in the player and had to wait because they said something was a "prohibited operation". If you wanted to skip the FBI warning, you hit fast forward. Nothing could stop you.
[23:43]	IsambardPrince	I think that my least favorite VHS releases were the special edition Star Wars trilogy.
[23:43]	IsambardPrince	You had the "special features" and it was like 20 minutes at the beginning of the tape, so you had to fast forward every single time.
[23:44]	IsambardPrince	Things were definitely a lot more interesting in the VHS era, than they are now.
[23:45]	IsambardPrince	Movie quality took a slump after the end of VHS, you know the discs all look better than VHS, all the disc formats do, but the movies they tend to put on them that didn't get a VHS release tend to be pretty bad.
[23:45]	IsambardPrince	In some cases, the discs get longer releases, like director's cuts that never made it to VHS.
[23:45]	IsambardPrince	They said "A History of Violence" was the last tape they produced commercially, but it may have actually been Disney's "Cars".
[23:46]	IsambardPrince	That went out in 2007, and I think they ran off some tapes for Disney Movie Club just to deplete stock of blanks they already had.
[23:47]	IsambardPrince	Some people who played the VHS of Alien: Romulus said it was not a good transfer.
[23:47]	IsambardPrince	I don't even know where they found enough tapes to do the release. They stopped making blanks in 2016.
[23:48]	IsambardPrince	You could just copy DVDs over to VHS blanks. As long as you had a VCR or something in the middle that didn't have Automatic Gain Control.

[23:49]	IsambardPrince	They put Macrovision in the DVDs, but as long as the DVD player's output went to a VCR that didn't understand it (or at least through one) it didn't affect the recording.
[23:50]	IsambardPrince	Congress passed a law that said all VCRs had to have AGC by a certain year, that was why.
[23:50]	IsambardPrince	It was so Macrovision could mess up your recordings onto blanks.
[23:50]	IsambardPrince	They had a lot of parents where they'd buy one Disney VHS (very expensive) and run it off for all the other parents.
[23:51]	IsambardPrince	Who would hand them copies of theirs.

[23:52]	IsambardPrince	That's a Godzilla movie on the top stack.
[23:52]	IsambardPrince	Says 5,500 Yen.
[23:52]	IsambardPrince	Wonder when that came out.
[23:52]	IsambardPrince	What that would be in USD and adjusted for inflation.
[23:55]	IsambardPrince	Right now, 5500 Yen is like over $38 USD, but it fluctuates, the Japanese are part of the reason the USD is positioned where it is.
[23:55]	IsambardPrince	The whole idea of maintaining a peg and artificially strengthening another country's currency to spur exports does not make a lot of sense to me.
