My apologies to the set designers of The Donnager/Rocinante on The Expanse, for when I said "Ugh, not the glass tile future computer trope again."
Look if you can trade a little over a hundred isolinear processing chips for a goddamn space cannon it's gotta be worth it
I'm pretty sure that trope is 100% about being able to use the actors' faces while they're doing computer stuff. Same as why space suits always have lights inside the helmets, which would be an insanely bad idea IRL.
