Does that apply to any universe or just Star Trek?
Any universe. I recall reading a fun fantasy book that played with this idea under the premise of a guy who discovered he was in a simulation and hacked admin access, decided to go back into Arthurian medieval times to be a wizard with his new tech powers, and ended up there with a number of other sysadmins who had the same idea.
It wasn't the best written book, but the concept was definitely novel.
What's the name of this book?
Off to Be the Wizard by Scott Meyer, part of his "Magic 2.0" series
Thanks!
