I’m surprised they don’t transport the “fluids”, right into the replicator recycling bin. That’s good carbon for pesto in there.
Ugh it’s like the opening shot from Waterworld but worse
3 letter word, disgusting, and a byproduct of lonely starship crew fantasy fulfillment.

Exactly. You can even see it on his lips… okay that’s bad wording but you get my point.
In many of the Star Trek’s, the holodecks are used by only one or two people. Why can’t they just be shoulder to shoulder in the holodeck having different fantasies?
Or maybe just turn the holodeck into like an open air brothel, to get them maximum number of crew member some relief.
The holodeck itself kind of works like a giant treadmill that’s generating stuff around you. On the walls are high definition visuals that make it seem like you can see forever. As you get close, it starts to replicate, to an extent, those things around you so you can actively interact with them. You wouldn’t be able to have multiple fantasies in the same holodeck.
The brothel idea on the other hand…
Frequently however characters will go on to the holo deck and walk further apart from each other than is possible in the limited space. So it must be able to do some kind of partitioning.
Like in voyager when they simulated the entire town, it was a town it was much bigger than the holodeck which seems to be only about the size of a tennis court.
I mean, you can have multiple people in the holodeck who are all out of sight of one another, so it’s definitely capable of partitioning them off to display different environments to each.
It’s unclear what the limits of this are, as most of the mass usage we see (e.g. when it’s used for a wedding reception) has most of the participants clustered tightly enough that it wouldn’t be necessary. But one of Quark’s holosuites can accommodate an entire baseball team despite being much smaller than a Federation holodeck, so the actual required space per partition has got to be pretty small.
an entire baseball team is one of quarks new holo novels available now, good cross promotion!
What if two people had a very long spool of rope that connected them together, then walked away from each other until they reach the edge of the holodeck, would the partitioning preserve the rope by splicing in new segments as each chunk gets loaded into memory? There shouldn’t be any slack in line tension if done properly.
On paper, sure, but we’ve seen many times where individuals are in completely separate areas of the holo world. The whole world War II bit in VOY, and when boymler went off trying to find the meaning g of life in his own program. Doubtless there’s more examples but that’s all I have in the memory buffer right now.
Or why bother with a room? … participants just lie down in a small closet and everything is just recreated inside their mind
HAHAHAH!

Cum’s filter?

Wasn’t it the episode with Famke Janssen in TNG where Riker was super horny so he blew off his bridge shift and told them “I’ll be in the holodeck”
One of them, yeah.
I think her surprise is the least believable thing about this scene. Any captain would know that the cum filter gets full quickly and needs to be cleaned out.
Well… she did try doing things the Boimler way, that one time…
Also, the captain has sudo priviledges on all holorecords
Back on the Enterprise they’d just recycle it into Data’s cum tank. I haven’t seen lower decks, is there an android that comes “fully equipped” in this animated series as well?
I guess we now know why he is that colour
