Af, Back to the Future, and Computers: I lyrangalis ow prokopetz Random Headeanon:That Federation vessels in Star Wek seem to anefact of the selevision serial format. Rather, r's because the Federation as a cuiture are a bunch of deranged hyper-neophiles, toaling around in ships packed ful of beyond-cutting-edge tech they con't really understand Encless rustraing r you have to ngt them, because they can pus an eftectvely unamned ณn ber or busn space-mage countermeasures out of their arses but they're as ely as not to give themselves a lethal tve-cimensional wedgie n he prooess Al those rampant holograms and warp core marunctions and ncioents? That doesnt actuaty happen to the rais ike that anyone etse. ส3 iterally just Federation vessels nat go And they do so ona airty regular basis So to everyone elbe in the galaxy, all humans are basically Doc Brown prokopetz ens who have seen the Back to the Future movies iterally dont realse that Doc Brown is meant to be funey.
