/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

The richest person in the Federation:
Even Picard's brother runs a vineyard and specifically mentions his distaste for replicated foods. I'd imagine replicators are only the total norm on starships, Starbases and remote outposts. Post-scarcity doesn't mean you only eat/drink from replicators. It means you can choose a profession based entirely on your desire of what to do, not for the pursuit of money. Of you want to be a chef you apprentice at any of the eating establishments and and spend as much time as you want learning. It doesn't mean you need to take out student loans to attend a prestigious culinary schools, then fight your way to a decent establishment where some master chef screams at you and berates you for 5 straight years.
And if you find that you're not good at it or it's just something you hate, you don't have to experience the dread of a career change and financially set you and your family back several years.
