>literally the most robot TV show character

Lore more closely represents the modern robot

>>37249507
Lore went insane because he could not cope with his emotions. You might be right.

>>37249426
And yet he still had more sex than you.

Barclay was pretty robotic, at least at first. Then they forced him to give up his holo waifu fantasies and try to be a normalfag.

nothing about star trek makes sense

>ai exists but unaugmented biological humans still perform tasks
>no currency, people just work for "lol personal enrichment"
>somehow 99% of men don't spend their every living moment boning VR waifus in the holodeck

>>37250042
There are lottery winners who still work for "muh personal enrichment", maybe the men we see are just the 1% resisting their waifu temptation.

wrong, this is truly /ourguy/

Nothing wrong with working for curiosity, enjoyment and self-improvement. Also, someone's gotta protect mankind from the Romulans.

Also, they're all raised to believe that career is everything. If you aren't on a career track to becoming a starfleet captain then your life is not worth living.
Picard firmly believes this, as evidenced by that episode where Q changes his past. Picard thinks the members of his crew who do the essential but low-level tasks and just useless scum whose lives are worthless.

There's a lot of mention of characters using holodecks off-screen, and innuendos are sometimes dropped that some of these uses were sexual in nature, it's just sort of swept under the rug. Pretty sure almost all of Quark's holosuite revenue came from holowhores. Also these peoples' lives are way more interesting than ours so they have things to divert them from their libido, and realistically, when you can do ANYTHING in a holodeck, just having sex all the time would get pretty boring.

What I'm more surprised by is the fact that they've never really expanded on the existential ramifications of holotech outside of the "holograms are people too" concept that you saw a lot of in voyager. There was some mention of holo-psychosis or something like that in the barclay episode but it wasn't really elaborated on outside of the context of the episode. We ourselves basically already have a new "everything is a simulation" religion growing and the intensity of the blurring lines between reality and non-reality that we've encountered doesn't come close to that that holotech would provide.

There's a lot of things that they really couldn't expand on because it would break and tear massive holes in the plot.

Holograms were amazingly sophisticated. There was really nothing to stop them from giving the ship's computer the same level of AI as a hologram, and even giving it a holographic avatar.
There could have been holo-emitters all over the ship and easily 80% of the crew could be holograms, with just a skeleton crew of humans to fix broken emitters.
Imagine replacing the entire security crew with holograms. Immortal, super-strong, ultra-accurate holographic soldiers.

That episode really frazzled my razzle. I lost a lot of respect for the captain.

Yeah

heh im breaking a rule

Considering the Enterprise mortality rate, I guess that's fair. He wouldn't feel that great if he thought the occasional crew member murdered by his blundering was worth something.
