In The Original Series in the 60s, people had no idea what the future would look like or what technology would look like. In one of the early episodes, they had a paper print out machine on the bridge that looked like a fax machine, which was considered futuristic in the 1960s.
Like the example of the Enterprise fax machine, what technology or system do you think are we displaying in the current Star Trek shows that will show how dated we will become in the future?
Yeah, but they do go overboard at times. There’s more than one instance where someone has a box full of PADDs with different info on each.
Yea, but that probably has more to do with replicator technology. Why interrupt your work on one PADD to check something or work on a related document “in another window” when you can replicate another one easily
I suppose, but they don’t look organized or anything in the scenes I’m talking about. I wish I could remember the episodes or even series where this has happened, but it’s happened more than once. Someone says they have to study something and they have a big, disorganized crate full of PADDs.
