Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is Fun!

General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

Stillsuits process urine and feces recall, so presumably people just shit in the suits.

You think they just do it while their walking (or standing around watching Paul Muad'dib summon a sand worm) or do they duck behind a dune and squat?

It’s probably the norm to take yourself off for a quiet poo, it’s an inalienable human pleasure after all. That said, I would likely shite myself if a sandworm was involved in anything I was, so I guess the real answer here is both.

Where? Arrakis is open desert. There doesn't seem to be anything to hide behind.
