    @AlastairjCarruthers 4 роки тому +43

    My theory: When food synthesisers first began to be installed in starships, many people struggled to adjust to having unlimited amounts of every conceivable food suddenly available to them at all times. As a result, nutritional balance and obesity became a problem. To control this Starfleet first experimented with having the replicators directly control what people could have, but this antagonised users, so they then tried a system of issuing ration cards. Presumably by the TNG era people had become completely used to having replicated food available so it was no longer a problem.
    The crew of Voyager were simply mistaken in thinking replicators weren't yet widespread in Kirk's time.

      To be fair to Voyager, food synthesizers and replicators aren't the same thing. Food synthesizers work similarly to replicators but are far more basic, manipulating existing proteins and amino-acids and constructing them into food (although the food wasn't that great). Replicators manipulate matter at a sub-atomic level, being able to create basically anything, from a tricorder to a lobster, using raw energy to matter conversion. Voyager were probably referring to the fact they didn't have the luxury of being able to replicate anything they needed at a moments notice, or the likely more extensive menu of higher quality food and drink.

    I think it works if the DIS food synths can only do food and dishes, and if the uniform replicator can only do uniforms. I don’t know if they were shown or mentioned as capable of other things. I think that fits with the ENT synthesizers.
    As for the food cartridges, I think it works if we assume the food gets vastly more chemically complicated by TOS, requiring a switch to physical media. Or, everyone can carry around their favorite version of a dish in order to avoid the base dishes. The tribbles also indicate the food stations hold stock material which is contrary to statements about replicators being energy to matter devices, which fits with the VOY statement by Kim about no replicators in the past.

    • @Exploder11
      @Exploder11 4 роки тому +2

      Zabe Denton the shows, TNG onwards, contradict the material stock idea. Voyager in particular, Chakotay relocates a good watch for Janeway, Janeway says to dereplicate it because they are suffering an energy crisis. Chakotay objects that he replicated it months ago, and Janeway says she doesn’t care, the energy is more important now. That shows the system is all energy to matter, and matter to energy. With stocks no energy would be recovered only consumed.

      also the Discovery and TOS 'food slots' were not replicators, but per dialog, "Food synthesizers". ENT actually introduces them as a vulcan technology, similar to the protein resenquencer used on the NX-01 but more advanced. basically a form of "3D printed food" where it takes a preexisting supply of simple molecules (fats, amino acids, etc) and assembles them into a result. presumably industrial versions existed that could produce polymers and fibers for fabric.
      Replicators would take the concept, but use transporter systems to literally assemble food atom by atom.

    I think the easiest way to reconcile it is to treat the food synthesizers and the uniform thing as fancy 3D printers, where they still need materials loaded up for everything used to make them and it can only do specific preprogrammed recipes. By contrast replicators can just make whatever and the computer can adjust recipes on the fly in various ways.

    Not sure why discovery is putting focus on the computer speaking. Literally never needed to do it in the past.
    Like the uniform for instance, the tray opening would be more than enough to inform us it was finished. Why the hell did we need "uniform synthesis complete"?!

    I personally think all Discovery's problems are easily solved by putting Discovery oh I dunno, after Nemesis (and not being super progressive and having better writers). Uniforms would need some slight change and maybe some other designs but other than that discovery would actually work technologically and would fit snug in the timeline.

  • @trekkerintheoutfield3041

    In Enterprise, don't they have basic food synthesizers? (I think at least the Vulcans [or Vulcanians if you're a real Trekker] did, which would've been shared after the formation of the Federation)
    And, given the canonical information that states that the Enterprise is an older ship, it's evident that it's running older technology than the newer ships like the Discovery. If we choose to pursue that well-respected tradition of fan-speculation, it's not unreasonable to suggest that the power systems might not be able to accommodate the standard uniform fabricators and food synthesizers.
    The Discovery and Cabot are decades newer than the Starship-class Enterprise, and would therefore have updated tech.
    Additionally, Janeway said they didn't have replicators, which could simply mean the transition from food synthesizer to a replicator was just that much of an improvement in the flavor and texture fidelity. Who knows, it may have been like the transition from holo-projectors (STE/ENT, STT/TAS, STD/DSC) to holodecks (STT/TNG, STV/VOY, STD/DS9), and happened shortly before The Next Generation.
    I get this channel's whole shtick is mocking Discovery for any and all perceived violations of the holy and always coherent whole of prior Star Treks, but this, like several other videos, is flagrant in its disregard of other instances of continuity and reasonable assumptions.

    There's plenty of things on Discovery to complain about, but IMO, using floppy disks to order food would've been really goofy in a 2010s tv show, especially now that we have Siri and Alexa IRL. Of course, the magic mushroom drive and the holograms are fair game

    Theory to reconcile DISCO and TOS: 23rd century food synthesizers have two options, you could speak to the computer and select a predetermined menu item, or you could create your own personal recipes and keep them on “flavour cards”. DISCO and TAS mainly used voice menu selections but TOS preferred to use personal cards.

  • @Penfolduk001

    In the same way holographic communications were ripped out of the Enterprise at the end of season 2 Discovery, maybe the replicators were taken off the main computer grid to prevent a Control-like AI cooking up all sorts of nasties in them.

    TOS had food dispensers not food replicators, the food dispensers were advanced dumb waiters. There's even a scene where Kirk was ordering the chef over the ship's intercom to make mock turkey for a holiday. The food synthesizers were in the kitchen with TOS and only made ingredients for the chef to prepare. Now in TOS, there was a scene where chicken soup was served from one of three food dispensers in a transporter room although there was no counter or table to eat at in the transporter room. Though, I'm sure nothing was intended by showing food dispensers in the transporter room, the rationalization of low quality transporter technology being used by the food dispensers and the three dispensers being for diagnostics by the transporter technicians would explain the existence of the dispensers in the transporter room. Note there was only one transporter room scene which showed food dispensers in TOS.
    Also, the food dispensers in TOS were shown in the mess hall/rec area except for the one transporter room scene. If we look at what was happening during the 1960's, it would be reasonable to assume that the food dispensers were like the automats common during the 50's and 60's and on the other side of that wall was a room of attendants filling the dispensers with the ordered food that had been delivered from the kitchen. Even if they had food dispensers in low traffic areas, there would still be non-transporter methods such as the advanced vending machines that we see in Japan, the food could still be just delivered in bulk from the kitchen. We didn't see anything about food replicators till TNG and everything in TOS not only shows the concept had not occurred to the writers but that there was kitchens and the food was just somehow delivered to those food dispensers by people and or technology. We did hear about food synthesizers in TOS presumably to make ingredients to prepare and Enterprise introduced us to protein sequencers/synthesizers, it wasn't till Discovery and Strange New Worlds that the writers broke the lore.
