Read the manual.
-
This is the way.
-
Yeah, maybe run a safety calibration or clean the filters or something. Holodecks are dangerous.
-
-
-
Have the computer render a fully accurate copy of myself, then circle my copy slowly, scrutinizing every flaw as they would be seen by others. This will surely be good for my mental health.
-
And then you fuck right?
-
Obviously.
-
Lazarus Long! I didn't know you were on Lemmy!
-
-
-
Ensure the safeties are enabled.
-
Disable safety protocols.
-
Then create a life or death scenario with an antagonist who is defined as being able to defeat me.
-
Man of culture
-
-
Depends entirely on whether or not it has an incognito mode.
-
Forcing Geordi to look holodeck CCTV will cause PTSD on him.
But maybe he's even into it.

You don't live in a place called Reading Rainbow if you haven't seen some shit
-
-
It does not 😐
-
No matter, everyone's doing it. And probably sharing.
-

Relive a random fun night with my college friends in a bar from 2003 that no longer exists.
Miss you, old friends.
-
Is it the "random fun night", "college friends", "bar", or 2003 that no longer exists?
-
-
-
I'll tell you what I'd do, man: two chicks at the same time, man.
-
Damn straight. I always wanted to do that, man. And I think if I had a l holodeck I could hook that up, cause chicks dig a dude with a holodeck.
-
-
i'd be getting my dick mad wet
-
I can imagine all of the AI pron, VR porn, and 3D rendered/video game porn would all combine so you can get freaky with anyone, and give them any personality you want.
I would also think that any 3D Video game would be able to be made compatible with it, similar to VR.
But porn would be there first.
-
-
Set it to humanity's highest point: 1999. Things will get very confusing when they try and break me from the Matrix only to find it we're in the holodeck.
-
So like ... how private is a holodeck? If the answer is "very", I'm definitely going with sexual fantasies.
-
Look what happened to Barkley.
-
-
Live my fantasy of being a star trek captain.
And during my star trek fantasy, I'd visit the holodeck.
-
Oh man, imagine the prank potential if you moved someone to a holodeck simulation of their own ship without them knowing it. Lower Decks ended too soon.

Seven Seven of Nines

69 of Nine.

Assuming it will keep running indefinitely without maintenance or upkeep.
Go inside. Create a pseudo Renaissance era theme. (With modern medicine). Program it so my bank account in there won’t ever run out of money. Then never leave. Just keep exploring. Have the holo deck just keep reconfiguring itself to effectively allow me to explore large areas.

Sounds like photorealistic Minecraft. Which sounds cool.
-
...well, I was gonna say porn but I actually like your idea better.
-
Get your freak in with bearded Dwarven ladies.
“Gives ya something to hang on to”
-
-
-
Get out as fast as I can, considering how often stuff goes terribly wrong on one of those...
-
everyone know, its going to be PORN.
-
Finding out where all the fluids would be going after ending the program?
-
Oh we already know: biofilters.
-
-
I'd simulate being on the Enterprise with my space pals and doing fun stuff on the holodeck.
-
Check out artemis simulator, you can live in the future now
-
Wow. I'm in the middle of renovating a house, and I now I'm going to have to talk my partner into having a designated Bridge room somewhere...
-
-
-
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
-
Same
-
-
After all the porny sex stuff?
-
See if it will run Doom. Safety settings on, of course.
Then Bad Apple in full realism mode.
-
-
Lock the door from the inside
-
No, but seriously, are those things self cleaning or do you have to go all over the floor, walls, and ceiling after you're done with a black light and a mop..?
-
Your mom.
-
read the user manual
-
Ah, so that's why people keep getting themselves trapped in there.
-
-
Girls. Sorry but its true. At least at first.
But then once that gets boring, I guess I would create beautiful environments to walk around in.
-
Boring? What do you mean
-
They haven't figured out girlception.
-
-
-
I'm going to go fuck myself. 😃
Also: your username cracks me up 🤣
-
Remember when Bortus had the holodeck addiction?
Kinda like that.
-
Do you mean Lt. Broccoli?
-
No, I mean Bortus
-
-
-
I can tell you what colour of uniform I wouldn't wear!
-
Full Barklay
-
You never go full Barklay.
-
-
Riza simulation
-
Do you seek jamaharon?
-
Well I guess, Quark may get you some much more interesting stuff than that...
-
-
Well, it'll probably involve tentacles, I can tell you that much.
-
Bunny Island!!!
-
Simulate a holodeck.
Then simulate myself simulating a holodeck inside that holodeck.
Then...
-
Then comes the holodick.
-
-
Insert funny porn joke.
But in all seriousness? A fully immersive, 100% realistic Dungeons and Dragons game with my friends. Exactly the same as we would run it at our table. We'd hop down to the replicators and holo-disguise generators and make ourselves up like our characters, and I'd just follow them around in a spooky mysterious robe and narrate the story.
That's it. I would run the best D&D game ever, the game of a lifetime, for my best friends.
-
Can I use to learn the technology of the Star Trek era?
Steal all the patternsInvent unlimited energy, the safe teleportation not the crappy one from early ages, replicator technology, cancer cure, and medicine. -
Play DnD first-person
-
Honestly? The first thought that goes through my head is exactly how strong and responsive the force fields can get. IIRC they can do bullets, as well as the texture and movement of anything normal. So, probably some benchmark involving a bucket of paint I brought in. Start with the paint, then do weird things with the bucket.
-
Fuck simulations of real-life environments, I’d run a fantasy RPG campaign.
-
Probably use the processing power for something else.
-
Like machine learning?
-
Well, it'd already have that, right? I think I'd use it to do stuff like build predictive models of things, to fine algorithmic solutions to complex problems, stuff like that. Seems fun. Maybe hook it up to the Internet and have it make some money so I could stop working and pay for the kids' college. Maybe use it to help with modelling for 3d printing and coming up with designs for different things.
It's be the most powerful computer on the planet, the options would be relatively limitless.
-
-
-
Create a Westworld-type environment.
-
5 minutes with Seven of Nine
-
Sit in silence for 4 minutes 30 seconds?
-
-
Used or new?
-
Set myself up as Spider-Man. Its what I wanted to do since I was 7. Then some weird sex stuff.
-
Why not both at the same time?
-
-
Install Doom.
-
There are a lot of good answers, probably some good simulators of things that already exist, programs people have made... I would test the ship's AI/learning capabilities, show it some old photos of my family and of memories past and see if it can recreate things like that. Since I don't have video of these people, I'd have to fine-tune their personalities and I'd have to remind myself I'd always be looking back — being that they aren't real people, I wouldn't be able to ask them about things they don't really know about or anything like that. It would be (more) interesting if we had input from a bunch of people who knew them, to sort of fill out the personality and try to remove biases.
But yeah, I think I'd start by showing it every photo I have of my childhood home and try to go back there, just to see it again.
And yeah, you can kinda/sorta do stuff like that now, there are programs... but that's my answer.

Infinite downhill MTB track.

Depends on what frame of mind I'm in. In a sufficiently devil-may-care mood, I might try and create a Moriarty. Or better, role play as one.
Or figure out how deeply it's possible to nest holodeck simulations before things get funky.
I could be a Q without any collateral damage. Torment Picard and Janeway. Get punched by Sisko. Roll it all back. Q's done the same.
Be a (male) Mary Sue in any TV show universe I've ever watched and not be judged for poor writing... Although O'Brien did appear to think he could discern sarcasm from the Enterprise computer from time to time.
And of course there's the thing that Riker, Barclay and LaForge, if not a good many of the rest of the crew almost certainly got up to in there... I'd be stupid to think I'd not try that at least once.
-
Find some way to jam the door so that no one can ever drag me out.
-
I would want to do so many things. I would want to do a ninja warrior type course, but with adjusted gravity or something. I'd make it into a gym with everything I need for my workout. That or maybe recreate a sports stadium and watch football from today, because I missed all of it? The possibilities are endless
-
This. I would really enjoy a p-e programme that scales up with me so it's always of utmost value and that's it.
-
-
Computer, show me the warp core!
-
-
Head to Lordran
-
Skyrim.
-
Reese Witherspoon....
D&D adventure complete with magic. Assuming I have a holodeck im already living in space, but if we had the tech and were not in space then after D&D it would be a Star Trek bridge explorer campaign.
-
I dunno, I might go for Reese Withouterspoon myself.
-
-
See if I can hook it into SteamVR and launch Resonite in there.
Might need some virtual controllers to do menu button stuff, but that should be easy.
-
World domination fantasy
-
Sit on a nice quiet beach at sunset and listen to the waves with absolutely no other people around.
-
I think this the answer, although I would choose a mountain top.
-
-
Have some fun with a bunch of Boimler clones.
-
Fly a P51 or an fw190. But not before I'm sure Riker has properly cleaned up after himself; I'm bringing luminol
-
First thing that came to mind was just getting to say bye to my grandpa, who got sick and passed away before I had an opportunity to visit. I know it wouldn't really be him, but I think it would be good for me to be able to get that closure.
After that, I'd probably go do some of the crazy fun stuff other folks are suggesting.
-
Lol. Guys come on. It's the first thing everyone would do.
-
Yeah! We're gonna score! It's finally gonna happen. Yeah! Eh heheheheheh
-
-
Boring perhaps but loads of experiences that are impractical IRL:
- Rally and circuit racing
- Flying various aircraft
- Explore non-Euclidian spaces
- Combat sports
- Perform cool roles in musical theatre
- Unload a barge like in those viral videos
-
First thing? Definitely google what it is and why I have one.
-
fire up Dark Souls
deactivate safety protocols
get some random Klingon from the streets as a commentator
broadcast livestream to Romulan territory
-
Run Resident Evil 2 on it
-
Aztec historical simulator.
-
Two chicks at the same time.
-
-
Lure trump and all his Nazi cohorts into it, and disable escape. Let them live in their own fantasy hellscape and leave us alone
Two chicks at the same time.
Hey, Peter, man! Check out channel 9!
There is nothing in the world like having two girls sucking your dick at the same time. Three would probably be a hassle to keep up with, never done that.
With three, physical positioning starts to get really inconvenient unless you're laying down, but then the view isn't as good. And unless you're packing like 9 inches, there's not a whole lot of open real estate anyway.
