/c/TenFoward: 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. 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.

Picked up the Bluray series off eBay. Physical media seems like the way to go, to really own anything
Same. Bummed that we'll probably never get remasters of DS9 and Voyager.
There is a nice DS9 upscaling project that is very good (not as good as a proper remaster, but still impressive).
https://ds9redefined.wordpress.com/videos/
They only provide download instructions (sftp) via discord, unfortunately. (https://discord.gg/qTgXcG9T). It's very large (300+ GB for the series).
They are working on Voyager now.
Iirc, the studio(s) likely wouldn't be able to do much better for Voyager as they didn't record Voyager onto film like the others. They cheaped out and recorded direct to VHS
No. Videotape, sure, but not VHS.
That or sailing the digital sea, which ig you could consider a bunch of DRM-free files on a drive you own to still be "physical media"
Do you really think the automation governments use don't understand euphemism. Just say piracy.
Counterpoint: Who cares, sailing the digital sea sounds cooler.
Do you really think people say things like sailing the digital sea to avoid persecution? Just say whatever sounds cool to you
... Ripped to a media server. It'll be a cold day in hell before I can be arsed to stand up and put media into a machine anymore.
Just gotta shield my media server from EMPs and we're golden.
