Forever lamenting the lack of transporters 🫂💚

Transporters are like photocopiers: an extremely unreliable technology that people depend on daily, pretending it wasn't broken yesterday and that a sloppy fix will be enough.
And ruin the plot complications?
That would be like Star Trek, TOS, fixing all their problems with the transporter, which was always "out of order" when needed.
How many episodes had Scotty underneath the control panel "repairing" it?

I've seen this a lot in ST RPGs, where point to point transporting in ship is used almost offensively.

It also precipitates the hilarious 'effect X means you cannot use transporters' meme, to also justify why the helm officer is flying the shuttle rather than a bosun-figure!

If there is one thing I dislike about modern Trek it is the drift to the transporters being like a teleporting superpower .

I get that transporters ARE teleporters but that was never the fictional place they sat in.

They were a narrative convention not a blink, blink thing.

Bones doesn’t seem as scared of transporters in this one

Big switches and buttons and everyone is slow and transporters are scary!

I genuinely know more about how warp drive and transporters work than I do baseball

Excellent! All Russian illegal oil transporters must be seized or sunk.

Dass das der Grund dafür ist, ist weiterhin erstmal nur Spekulation. Schließlich wurde ja auch das Konto von @abcdresden.bsky.social gekündigt, die alles andere als Kreml-nah sind. Aber ja, haben sie. Sie reisten auch mal eben in die russisch besetzten Gebiete.

Not sure it’s that simple these days. Many ships, and particularly Russian tankers & trawlers, are not merely transporters. Currently there are many Russian ships under sanction because they are equipped with spy/sabotage gear, such as for underwater cable cutting. It’s currently a serious threat.

The people who run sex rings do not only associate with other sex ring runners..

They operate with high level dealers, transporters and different genres of low lifes..

For trump to say he doesnt want drugs in our country, just means he wants to control the source and distribution..

on this sad & lonely & depressing evening, I once again find myself wishing transporters existed & also for a few million so we could have a cabin somewhere

How about our own earth-like planet, otherwise uninhabited? Access by invitation only.

With Star Trek replicators. And transporters.

VW Transporters like this are quite common here even with farmers. They can load almost a metric ton and have a 90 hp diesel engine.

Yes! And the phaser along with the transporters have always been such a Deus Ex Machina that they have applications beyond just weaponry, such as energy transfer or cutting samples from asteroids or something.

No Magic Folks.

"Boy My timing's Off Today!" lol

Sure Transporters are cool and may look like Magic but no Magic involved, just sucks that you try to explain that Dr. Jackson only to be beamed up while trying to explain it isn't magic. lol

Unfortunately you get King Cake during Mardi Gras, and that's too many people.

So, I must wait for Star Trek-like transporters. Then I can zap in, get cake, and immediately leave.

TIL: Im dunklen Schimmer des Transporters, draußen das Wintergrau wie Blei, hab ich Hyänen aufs Papier gekratzt. Die Biester sind keine Einzelgänger, sondern führen ganze Clans wie Mini-Gangbosse. Inmitten von wartender Leere, Bosslicht auf Bissigkeit, gibt’s tierisch viel mehr [1/2]

Ein Eisbrocken von einem entgegenkommenden Lkw ist am frühen Mittwochmorgen bei Kasendorf durch die Windschutzscheibe eines Transporters gekracht. Der Fahrer aus dem Landkreis Kulmbach blieb nur knapp unverletzt. Die Polizei sucht Zeugen.

When I was young I used to see them on the car transporters heading to Belfast Docks, they looked amazing! Apparently they weren’t that good though…
