  Canonically in Voyager their computers run macOS. BSD is pretty great.

    Mach/BSD 🤓

    The actual kernel of XNU (ie. what’s under the hood on macOS, originally by NeXT) is Mach which is a microkernel, and a chunk of FreeBSD is used to provide userland(ish) stuff like POSIX APIs, a UNIX process model on top of Mach, protocol stacks 'n shit.

  Just eject the warp core … and reinsert it again.

  Like a battery when you want to restart your device.
