Dull in appearance it might be, the replicator is one of the most common and most useful pieces of remnant technology. First discovered back in 8201 remnant replicators were put into use onboard capital ships as a means of recycling waste organics into more useful foods. While this alone was considered very helpful for long-term voyages across space, research suggests that the containers these food products are dispensed in are shelf-stable for possibly hundreds of ship-years; permitting a ship with a well-maintained hydroponics system can operate in the void nigh-indefinitely at the cost of a surprisingly small amount of energy. Because of the extraordinarily complicated coding system for these remnant devices, the only available recipe databases have either been recovered from ruins or copied themselves. Acquisition and maintenance is still an expensive process so most replicators in public use are a novelty item to attract planet-dwelling tourists and individuals with expensive culinary tastes.

I'm going to have to really figure out how to handle the painting stuff. This one once again took too long.
Still, I like Clinton's happy light in this page!
