/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.

I like to think by the time Kirk gets the enterprise, all those spacious crew quarters we see in Strange New Worlds have been eaten up by retrofits and upgrades.

What is with the fireplaces in SNW? What space shipwrite thinks that naked flame in crew quarters (on a vessel that seems to come back from most missions full of holes) is a good idea?

They just likely just play convincing holograms in those. The logistics of handling wooden logs and dealing with r smoke would be ridiculous enough to begin with.

I hope that's real and that we get an episode where a geeky crew member turns their's into a winamp visualizer.

Crew complement went from 203 to 430, so this makes perfect sense.

[–] Snowyday@startrek.website 3 points 6 months ago

Those crew quarters fill up quickly when the wars start.

Just look at how full 10 Forward us during the alt timeline Klingon war

"What are all those bright bloody lights for? Are they holdin' some sort a' fashion photo shoot on the bridge?"

Picard shields his eyes

"THERE ARE FORTY LIGHTS!"

[–] Lemming421@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

Show him the Titan-A. Lights mean you can at least see what you’re doing while at work…

I bet he pulls the same face Phillipa does

“Orange, really? Ugh.”

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago

"Mahogany, really?"

A moment ago, I started spiraling a bit and have been listening to music to pull myself back together.

Then I pull up Lemmy and see this. I am immediately okay again. Thank you.

(I'm like that .gif of Pedro Pascal playing backwards now.)

"No, no, the later retrofit where we made it look like it was a set from a 1960s sci-fi show so our enemies wouldn't know how advanced our tech actually was!"
