/c/TenForward: 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. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
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.

Best utter "Computer, end program." from time to time, just to be sure.

You're just an NPC. You don't have the permissions.

Unlike Moriarty?

[–] BillyClark@piefed.social 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

If you were an NPC, even if you did have the permissions, would you actually notice? You'd be ending at the same time as the program, and if and when the program started back up, you would have no reason to think that your command worked.

[–] nightofmichelinstars@sopuli.xyz 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What if it never starts back up? The ship is abandoned. There's a last time for everything.

[–] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 17 points 1 month ago

You wouldn't be aware of your own oblivion.

[–] sirblastalot@ttrpg.network 35 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Rookie mistake.

"Computer, Anime Waifus, Hot."

[–] dangling_cat@piefed.blahaj.zone 28 points 1 month ago (2 children)

A scorching hot 2700 Celsius anime girl appeared

[–] ripcord@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Unless something is broken, the holodeck interpreters have tons of safety mechanisms and intent interpreters. It's not a monkey's paw.

[–] rainwall@piefed.social 20 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Take a look around. That shit is off.

He died doing what he loved.

[–] DmMacniel@feddit.org 1 points 1 month ago

Not his wife?

We couldn't be so lucky. Unless someone is running a simulation to see how the Eugenics Wars, Bell Riots, WW3 and Atomic Horror came to be

The first person to discover teleportation could do this and cause riots

If it's me, I'm robbing the sperms bank

Everyone always goes for the money vault. I like to do things different.

I'm finding everyone I know who I don't like and taking their donation and putting it back in their fridge at home with a note that says "haha! Stole your sperms!" with hearts in the exclamation dots.

The amazing digital circus

[–] teft@piefed.social 34 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I would immediately say “Computer, arch.” just to check.

[–] Klear@piefed.world 36 points 1 month ago

Computer, Arch, btw.

[–] BenLeMan@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Just remember that any computer system operates by the GIGO principle:

Garbage In, Garbage Out.

(it's a trashcan, right?)

[–] Digit@lemmy.wtf 6 points 1 month ago (4 children)

In what order does it come out?

FIFO? LIFO?

[–] BenLeMan@lemmy.world 3 points 4 weeks ago

I'm no raccoon but I'm guessing LIFO?

There is a pipe and a fence behind it, I would guess it is some sort of control box, maybe for a fountain or a splash pad or something.

[–] BenLeMan@lemmy.world 2 points 4 weeks ago

Also plausible.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 24 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Wait, the safeties have been ON this whole time?

[–] tiramichu@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 month ago

Of course. If you've ever been able to injure yourself, that just means you're one of the holograms.

[–] Frenchgeek@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 month ago

Yes, the players were safe.

[–] Flower@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 month ago

Do you see dimensional rifts or godlike beings popping in? No. That's because of the safeties.

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago

Ethics express goes brrrr.

[–] rockSlayer@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You monster, you've doomed us all!

[–] Digit@lemmy.wtf 4 points 1 month ago

And a bunch of misanthropes around here upvoted our doom.

[–] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago

Security reports Niles the butler from The Nanny has been spotted on deck 3.

[–] tacotroubles@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago

Who's the sick twisted arse hole that designed this program?

[–] gedaliyah@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago

Doctor, he just keeps shouting "Arch! Computer, arch! Computer, end program!"

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.club 12 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

What's the bad news??

That I'm part of the hologram about to get turned off?
That's just good news on top of good news!

[–] Zahtu@feddit.org 5 points 1 month ago

yeah, i would just be glad that humanity survived as long to develop that kind of technology

[–] gigastasio@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 month ago

Okay who’s the wise ass who just deleted my wife?

[–] Zephorah@discuss.online 10 points 1 month ago

Brilliant decal for public spaces.

[–] agentTeiko@piefed.social 8 points 1 month ago

Computer delete the wife

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 4 weeks ago

Custom magnetic vinyl stickers are cheap nowadays I guess
