TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name
/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. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable, neither is supporting people who actively want to kill those groups. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.
~ 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' and fuck over our artist friends.
Fun will now commence.

What if in a thousand years “Measure of a Man” is used as justification for cancelling TNG for daring to imply an artificial life form isn’t sentient.
A thousand? At the rate AI is improving, I wouldn't be surprised to see this start to change in my lifetime!
I bet the big one is going to be something like younger audiences being uncomfortable with any classic shows/movies that show meat-eating. Whatever our blindspot is, it'll have to be something that largely flies under our radar right now.
I recently watched Travelers, which is about people coming back from the future, and one of the things most of them couldn't handle was eating meat.
(Pretty decent show, picks up in the second season You'd like it if you like sci fi that focuses on characters and has cameos from other shows shot in British Columbia. 6.5/10)
(No, Richard Dean Anderson does not make an appearance)
I loved Travelers. It's a really good show and actually has a satisfying finale, unlike so many other sci-fi shows. And it also had a lot fewer "wait, this doesn't make sense" moments than other time travel shows.
The first episode is a little too touchy feely for me so I didn't watch until my GF recommended it to me. I'm glad I did, but it's still too many emotions and not enough reversing polarity to be one of my favorites. But I really like the concept and you're right that it was great to have an actual ending for the show.
Oh interesting, I'll have to remember this one.
What today is touted as AI is actually nothing of the sort. And it's not modeling for mind, so there's no risk of the Singularity happening.
It is very much AI, it's just not AGI.
The need to invent the AGI was due to decades of misuse of "AI".
