/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.

Custom magnetic vinyl stickers are cheap nowadays I guess

[–] gedaliyah@lemmy.world 9 points 5 hours ago

Doctor, he just keeps shouting "Arch! Computer, arch! Computer, end program!"

The amazing digital circus

[–] terranoid@lemmy.cafe 11 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

The first person to discover teleportation could do this and cause riots

If it's me, I'm robbing the sperms bank

Everyone always goes for the money vault. I like to do things different.

I'm finding everyone I know who I don't like and taking their donation and putting it back in their fridge at home with a note that says "haha! Stole your sperms!" with hearts in the exclamation dots.

[–] FistingEnthusiast@lemmy.world 1 points 8 minutes ago

I love that

But I'd leave it on the bench, in the sun, so the sperm dies and I'd also crack the lid open so it's stinky

[–] agentTeiko@piefed.social 6 points 5 hours ago

Computer delete the wife

[–] tacotroubles@lemmy.world 11 points 8 hours ago

Who's the sick twisted arse hole that designed this program?

[–] gigastasio@sh.itjust.works 9 points 9 hours ago

Okay who’s the wise ass who just deleted my wife?

[–] Digit@lemmy.wtf 84 points 14 hours ago (3 children)

Best utter "Computer, end program." from time to time, just to be sure.

[–] sirblastalot@ttrpg.network 31 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Rookie mistake.

"Computer, Anime Waifus, Hot."

[–] dangling_cat@piefed.blahaj.zone 20 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

A scorching hot 2700 Celsius anime girl appeared

[–] ripcord@lemmy.world 8 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Unless something is broken, the holodeck interpreters have tons of safety mechanisms and intent interpreters. It's not a monkey's paw.

[–] rainwall@piefed.social 9 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

Take a look around. That shit is off.

[–] tacosanonymous@mander.xyz 5 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

He died doing what he loved.

[–] DmMacniel@feddit.org 1 points 4 hours ago

Not his wife?

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 53 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago) (2 children)

You're just an NPC. You don't have the permissions.

Unlike Moriarty?

[–] BillyClark@piefed.social 11 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

If you were an NPC, even if you did have the permissions, would you actually notice? You'd be ending at the same time as the program, and if and when the program started back up, you would have no reason to think that your command worked.

[–] nightofmichelinstars@sopuli.xyz 8 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

What if it never starts back up? The ship is abandoned. There's a last time for everything.

[–] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 12 points 11 hours ago

You wouldn't be aware of your own oblivion.

[–] Thebeardedsinglemalt@lemmy.world 5 points 12 hours ago

We couldn't be so lucky. Unless someone is running a simulation to see how the Eugenics Wars, Bell Riots, WW3 and Atomic Horror came to be

[–] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 15 points 10 hours ago

Security reports Niles the butler from The Nanny has been spotted on deck 3.

[–] teft@piefed.social 30 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

I would immediately say “Computer, arch.” just to check.

[–] Klear@piefed.world 29 points 13 hours ago

Computer, Arch, btw.

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 16 points 12 hours ago

Did you say Arch~er~?

[–] BenLeMan@lemmy.world 13 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

Just remember that any computer system operates by the GIGO principle:

Garbage In, Garbage Out.

(it's a trashcan, right?)

[–] Digit@lemmy.wtf 5 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

In what order does it come out?

FIFO? LIFO?

[–] BenLeMan@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

I'm no raccoon but I'm guessing LIFO?

[–] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 2 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago) (1 children)

There is a pipe and a fence behind it, I would guess it is some sort of control box, maybe for a fountain or a splash pad or something.

[–] BenLeMan@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

Also plausible.

[–] Zephorah@discuss.online 11 points 13 hours ago

Brilliant decal for public spaces.

[–] shittydwarf@piefed.ca 13 points 13 hours ago (3 children)
[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 21 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

Wait, the safeties have been ON this whole time?

[–] Flower@sh.itjust.works 7 points 9 hours ago

Do you see dimensional rifts or godlike beings popping in? No. That's because of the safeties.

[–] tiramichu@sh.itjust.works 12 points 12 hours ago

Of course. If you've ever been able to injure yourself, that just means you're one of the holograms.

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 13 points 12 hours ago

Ethics express goes brrrr.

[–] rockSlayer@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

You monster, you've doomed us all!

[–] Digit@lemmy.wtf 3 points 11 hours ago

And a bunch of misanthropes around here upvoted our doom.

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.club 10 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago) (1 children)

What's the bad news??

That I'm part of the hologram about to get turned off?
That's just good news on top of good news!

[–] Zahtu@feddit.org 5 points 13 hours ago

yeah, i would just be glad that humanity survived as long to develop that kind of technology
