Quentyn Quinn, Space Ranger: Difference between revisions

Isn't it enough that you wrote and curate your entire TVTropes page yourself, Junya?
(The "did not do the research" section was factually incorrect on multiple points, and was also phrased as a personal attack on the artist.)

** [[Identical Grandson]]
* [[Death World]]
* [[Did Not Do the Research]] [[Author Tract]]: Hayes apparently heard that 3D printers were "like ''Star Trek'' replicators" and ran with it. His storyline lauding how 3D printers revolutionized the world and led to Benevolent Libertarian Anarchy or somesuch makes a number of ridiculous and laughable statements. A sampling:
** It claims that these 3D printers could print gold bricks by filtering gold out of seawater. [[Hand Wave|How did they do this]]? Did everyone cart their 3D printer down to the coast and hook up a huge hose? What is this filtering doing to the water's chemical makeup? Considering how tiny the amount is, won't the ocean run out of gold by the time the tenth guy pays off his student loans?
** It eventually has people printing "anti-matter weaponry" with them. Neverminding that someone would still have to design a working raygun that could be 3D printed, how exactly do you load your 3D printer with antimatter? Again, apparently these 3D printers are actually magic and can just make whatever someone asks for.
* [[Digital Piracy Is Evil|Digital ''Regulation'' Is Evil]]: [http://www.rhjunior.com/quentyn-quinn-space-ranger-0054/ The RIAA Wars]. RH throws an [[Anvilicious|anvil]] here - his opinion is that we either chill out about it or let the regulators eat our brains - ''literally''. [[Flame Bait|It Makes Perfect Sense]] - [[It Makes Sense in Context|In Context]]. I invoke [[Wiki Magic]]. Read and contribute!
* [[Disproportionate Retribution]]: When the Kvrk-chk ate a Racconan colony ship's passengers, the Empire retaliated by roasting one of the more populated Kvrk-chk star systems with a [[Star-Killing|stellar lance]].
