/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.

I'm afraid I need some help on this one.
Oh dang. I thought I made the mouse-over alt-text sufficient.
It's the classic popular Dunning-Kruger graph, where those without the ability lack the ability to know they lack the ability, and so, in over-confidence, grossly over-estimate their competence. The point on the chart the arrow points to is often referred to as "mount stupid".
So you came into a trek based community to call a trek series stupid?
Which way to the Kurtzman Star Trek Haters Club?
I mean, it's not not Hogwarts In Space, but you're also not wrong. 😅
It's not Star Trek.
An affront to everything Star Trek is about.
For one example of a more thorough critique: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GmBks5mLKpU
I'm not watching some right wing shit head youtuber complain about "woke" trek. Thanks for outing your account as one to ignore.
Typically I score around -7,-8 on political compass. So, very much not "right wing".
Canny with those snap judgements and mono-linear conflations.
I'm mad at the badness in SFA for not upholding the ideals of Gene Roddenberry, and for being crass militaristic propaganda normalising hate, rather than countering it.
I'm not complaining about it being "woke". Pray tell, where, oh where, was that notion picked up from? Seems as absurdly wrong as Star Trek Starfleet Academy is. Arguably, I'm complaining it's not "woke" enough, depending on which newspeak dictionary version of "woke" you're using. I'm complaining that it's corporate (right wing) dumb-down, stripped of the defining moral fiber, the ethical exploration, the freedom, the self improvement for each and all... y'know, the goodness that makes Star Trek Star Trek?
Quick to ignore = wilfully ignorant?
The Socratic method, and mature epistemological dialogue (like Star Trek's famous for), may serve us all very well. Would be good to have a new Star Trek that lives up to this, having humility, curiosity, and a rigorous search for the ideal when confronted with moral dilemmas, rather than just fire the phasers; swing the hammer; click the ignore button, like we've left ourselves weakened with only one tool in our toolbox, seeing every problem like the same threat. Y'know?
Perhaps you were unaware, but nerdrotic (the author of the video you linked above) is a known bigot and right wing grifter. That's why the above user concluded that your opinion was not worth listening to. Just thought you should know.
Righto. Thanks for the info.
Though I'll still continue to strive to listen to a wide variety of opinions.
The little I've seen from him and the guests he had on, that was not apparent. Rather the contrary, given their love of Star Trek, and their praise of its egalitarian economics and ethics.
How does that work in mobile apps like Voyager?
Besides that, I still don't know what you want to say. Do you think Academy is stupid? Do you think fans of the show are stupid? I didn't watch it, why do you think either was stupid, what are your clues?
On Thunder, it's this Tt button
In Voyager you have to tap the image and the text will bee displayed below.
I tried your method and see no bees please help
Bees have been sent to your location. Please remain stationary.
Ah, thanks. I usually don't open images, because why? I don't suspect all images to have such alt texts and there is no indicator (afaik).
Thank you. I learned something today.
I have no idea how to see that in Boost, unfortunately
