/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.

You've just made an enemy for life!

[–] thessnake03@lemmy.world 9 points 8 months ago

You trekies are a contentious bunch

[–] agent_flounder@lemmy.world 14 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Meanwhile, I like all of them...

[–] Son_of_dad@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago (2 children)

I'm gonna confess, I hated TNG

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 15 points 8 months ago

You just made an enemy for life! For three months.

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 2 points 8 months ago

Agreed. There was a handful of decent episodes and that was about it.

[–] MaggiWuerze@feddit.de 9 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Why did you stop abbreviating after PICard?

[–] beebarfbadger@lemmy.world 7 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Wait, wait, wait, wait - Star Trek Discovery is abbreviated as DIS and not STD? Aww.

[–] unlawfulbooger@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Personally I’d rather get DISsed than get STDs…

[–] Tattorack@lemmy.world -1 points 8 months ago

Nah, it's STD.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 7 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Where Is Strange New Worlds? If you're going to include Prodigy and Lower Decks you should definitely include Strange New Worlds

[–] Glitch@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 8 months ago

Maybe the SNW fans are a pip above it all

[–] unlawfulbooger@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 8 months ago

I knew I forgot something 😅

[–] FictionalCrow@yiffit.net 7 points 8 months ago (2 children)

To put lower decks even in the same meme let alone category is an insult

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 7 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I don't know, I didn't really care for Prodigy's first couple of episodes, but I re-watched those and continued and I'm more and more impressed.

The Kobiyashi Maru episode was the best one I've seen so far. Not only was it just really well-written, but, without spoiling anything, it had some jaw-dropping sound editing.

[–] Infynis@midwest.social 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Hell yeah, that's the one I'm on next. I've been excited since I saw the title

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

It's really impressive. It's obvious how it was done when you hear it, but still really impressive.

[–] then_three_more@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Prodigy is the second best new Trek after SNW. It just takes a couple of episodes to get going.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

It just takes a couple of cups of coffee to get going.

[–] Maven@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago (2 children)

I keep seeing that. I watched the first 4 episodes and gave up but I guess I gotta try it again.

[–] then_three_more@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

Yeah, it's a shame the first few episodes are pretty kiddy. It gets better balanced once it's set up. You can tell that they're going for the kind of kids show where the parents will be happy to sit with their children and watch along.

[–] eva_sieve@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

Time Amok is the eighth episode, it has a few minor spoilers but it's otherwise a standalone and classic Trek "ship hit by science nonsense" episode. If you want a barometer of what the show can be that'd be my recommendation to watch ahead.

[–] rovingnothing29@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago (1 children)
[–] unlawfulbooger@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Yes, it should!

Skinner: What about Strange New Worlds?
Willy: you just made an enemy for life!

Like that?

[–] rovingnothing29@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

That ending is better

[–] blahsay@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

TIL there are discovery fans 🤷

[–] HonorableScythe@lemm.ee 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Cries in being an Enterprise fan

No one likes us!

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

But there is one thing we can all agree on:

B&B are the worst kind of nerds.

[–] w00@feddit.de 5 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Bungeons & Bragons?

[–] JWBananas@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Your Jesus is great. It's his followers that I abhor.

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I am too a "PIC" fan. Send me all your pics. (Please don't actually)

[–] unlawfulbooger@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Here’s one:
