/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.

"All we know is he's NOT the Stig. He's the Stig's balder, space-faring cousin."

Some say his Racing Helmet is filled with Earl Gray, hot, and that he refuses to drive any buggy with 4 lights

Middle gif: Is it me, or does Dorn look like he’s barely keeping a straight face?

Between this scene and the ridiculous voice modulation they gave Worf, I can't blame him.

Of course Brent Spiner had to wear those safety goggles when they filmed, but I also love the in-universe idea of Data putting on a piece of safety equipment completely unnecessary for himself just to fit in with his friends.

The original schematics had a car or truck somewhere if I recall, along with a giant duck. (The technical manual was a blast)

I wish Lower Decks had covered the duck.

It was a Porsche, and there were lots of other tiny jokes on those panels along with it.

Scroll down to the "In-Jokes on displays" section on this page to see them, and how they had to be (usually) covered up when the camera got too close.

Is that a typo, or is "Here me out" part of the joke?

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 9 points 5 days ago

Nah, just my usual vague grasp of grammar and the English language at large.

So many people complained about the buggy but I never got it. We've seen tons of situations where the shuttles aren't totally viable so it makes sense that they'd have a backup. And humans like to have fun. If Picard never had a reason to bring that out until now, makes sense he'd want to enjoy it the same way any Dad does when they pull out a new tool/toy for the first time.
