/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 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 23 hours ago (1 children)

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

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

i mean yeah, but i don't want someone to lose their last sperms. it's just a prank

[–] FistingEnthusiast@lemmy.world 2 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Oh, if I don't like someone, I'm definitely going to try to keep them from polluting the gene pool

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago)

see i don't really care about that, i'm not having kids so i don't really care about the gene pool. (also a lot of folk i know are great people to spite their shit parents. well also just for fun but also spite.)

[–] conartistpanda@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

The amazing digital circus

[–] Digit@lemmy.wtf 94 points 1 day ago (3 children)

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

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 55 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

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

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 1 day ago (1 children)

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

[–] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 13 points 1 day ago

You wouldn't be aware of your own oblivion.

[–] sirblastalot@ttrpg.network 34 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Rookie mistake.

"Computer, Anime Waifus, Hot."

[–] dangling_cat@piefed.blahaj.zone 26 points 1 day ago (2 children)

A scorching hot 2700 Celsius anime girl appeared

[–] ripcord@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago (2 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 18 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Take a look around. That shit is off.

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 0 points 14 hours ago

safety mechanisms

The sheer amount of "oh no the holodeck is broken" episodes suggests they are worthless.

[–] tacosanonymous@mander.xyz 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He died doing what he loved.

[–] DmMacniel@feddit.org 1 points 1 day ago

Not his wife?

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

[–] gedaliyah@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago

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

[–] teft@piefed.social 32 points 1 day ago (2 children)

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

[–] Klear@piefed.world 35 points 1 day ago

Computer, Arch, btw.

[–] tacotroubles@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago

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

[–] agentTeiko@piefed.social 7 points 1 day ago

Computer delete the wife

[–] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago

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

[–] gigastasio@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 day ago

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

[–] BenLeMan@lemmy.world 16 points 1 day ago (3 children)

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

Garbage In, Garbage Out.

(it's a trashcan, right?)

[–] Digit@lemmy.wtf 6 points 1 day ago (2 children)

In what order does it come out?

FIFO? LIFO?

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

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

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 23 hours ago

Same way as my buttholes. Omnidirectional.

Custom magnetic vinyl stickers are cheap nowadays I guess

Wait, the safeties have been ON this whole time?

[–] tiramichu@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 day ago

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

[–] Frenchgeek@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 day ago

Yes, the players were safe.

[–] Flower@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 day ago

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

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago

Ethics express goes brrrr.

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

You monster, you've doomed us all!

[–] Digit@lemmy.wtf 3 points 1 day ago

And a bunch of misanthropes around here upvoted our doom.

[–] Zephorah@discuss.online 11 points 1 day ago

Brilliant decal for public spaces.

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.club 11 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day 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 1 day ago

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