/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. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

I mean, Data did have a daughter.

It did not go as well as he would have liked.

That was not Yar’s fault though. I think she’d been killed by Big Oil several seasons earlier, but it’s been a while.

I like how in Picard the Android home world gets effectively abandoned by the plot of session 2 and 3.

[–] Stamau123@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

I'd abandon it too, they were doing nothing good with it

That must be the worst thing about Picard. Season 1 is all about the synths and their planet.

Season 2 has that as a footnote with the synth girl being a sort of ambassador now, but drops the matter and her character too. Creates a new thing in the process, "good" borg who supposedly guard an anomaly(?) as friends to the federation in a massive new borg ship.

Season 3 makes no further mention of that but instead has normal borg as adversaries, and phased out virtually every new character for a nostalgia theme park ride (which was admittedly pretty fun, albeit a complete creative sellout).

I mean, the new additions and topics they tried in the first two seasons weren’t the best Trek, but at least they tried to shake up the format a bit.

Metamucil & toner

Actually she was killed by the actress

Nah, I blame Q. It's definitely a Q kind of problem. Best way to take care of a new being that is a little bit of two others though is to call up aunty Janeway.

Edit: I'd like to note I feel horrible for suggesting that.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 9 points 8 months ago

A "bit". A Data Bit.

Or go to O'Brien, he'll keep the little tyke nice and safe in the pattern buffer.

[–] Null@pawb.social 7 points 8 months ago

Exactly what I was going to say 😆

[–] Okami_No_Rei@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

and anatomically correct!

[–] khan_shot_1st@lemmy.world 13 points 8 months ago

I can absolutely see this being the cold open for an actual episode if Tasha had stuck around for a bit longer. Especially with how weird season 1-2 gets sometimes...

So he didn't notice she was pregnant or see the kid until he was this old? Or did he just suddenly appear? Wouldn't even remotely be the strangest thing to happen in the show.

[–] zero_spelled_with_an_ecks@programming.dev 14 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Didn't Troi have a kid with a sparkly light that grew up in a day or something like that?

[–] Greatusername11@lemy.lol 6 points 8 months ago

Something something and then Q snaps his fingers!
