/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. 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.

Either we're in a different timeline or it took that guy over 20 years to develop that transparent aluminum.

[–] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 2 points 9 hours ago

I didn't realize Harry Kim was a software pirate! Always keep an eye out for them at your local software store!

That printer is useless without the cables. Even then the odds of it working are 50/50.

"Hey, could you hold this modem while I take your photo?"

"Sure, how's this?"

"Hmmm, not bad, but could you hold it more... sexily?"

I saw that picture of Tim and my first thought was very similar to yours:

"Now look like you're in Vulcan's Forge and it's your first pon-farr...PERFECT!"

You read that as "sexy"?

I interpret it more as "deeply resents his agent and rightly so" 😄

I remember buying this issue of this magazine specifically for this interview/photo spread. I was very disappointed because it was super lame. I think it was for something I would normally never read like variety or parade magazine or something.

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

When I looked it up earlier, it said this was from Parade. Good memory!

[–] homes@piefed.world 1 points 12 hours ago

It was a decidedly bad memory, now that you mention it ;)

Why is Paris stealing that printer?

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He’s going to smash it in a field.

Feeder is jammed /moans

[–] teft@piefed.social 12 points 1 day ago (4 children)

That is 100% Nick Locarno. And he appears to be stoned.

[–] Thorry@feddit.org 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He looks EXACTLY like Tom Paris tho. I mean look at him.

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

I don't see it

[–] gnufuu@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 day ago

I had never realized the nod to European cities with Locarno and Paris. Looking forward to Hans Düsseldorf

[–] DarkCloud@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Cashing that printer in for some more weed bro. The New Sydney Prison Colony buys two printers a month because of this kid.

He needs to learn horticulture.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Nah, that's Courteney Cox's boyfriend from Masters of the Universe

[–] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 2 points 23 hours ago

Oh man, I've rewatched it recently and that was a pleasant surprise.

[–] Jesus_666@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

I love how most of these look like they're showing off their stuff while Robert Duncan McNeill and Garrett Wang look like they're off to do something stupid with it. Honestly, that has peak Harry and Tom energy.

And the Doctor is exactly the kind of person who wouldn't shut up about his Blackberry.

Bit unusual what Robert Beltran is doing. That picture has more personality than seven seasons of Chakotay.

[–] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 9 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I've never felt attraction for ms Mulgrew before but... Rawr!

[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I'd take her out for coffee

[–] ramble81@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

She’s just as likely to take you out for coffee.

But I'm not even a transporter abomination!

[–] teft@piefed.social 3 points 1 day ago

I wouldn't mind getting stuck in a modular shelter on some random class-m planet with her

[–] Taleya@aussie.zone 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's cos janeway has Big Mum energy. Outside of her role she was pretty smoking

[–] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 1 points 1 day ago

True. That hairdo doesn't do her any favors either.

[–] Taleya@aussie.zone 3 points 1 day ago

That ethan / jennifer one is super mega meta creepy holy shiiiit

[–] gnufuu@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 day ago

That modem's going to be pon farred by Tuvok

[–] wizardbeard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

Top right, leather t-shirt. Don't know how anyone can wear stuff like that that doesn't breathe.

Yet another reason Harry will always be an Ensign.

[–] FoxyFerengi@startrek.website 11 points 1 day ago (5 children)

He had a habit of wearing uncomfortable looking fabrics for magazines

Garrett Wang poses for a magazine wearing y2k metallic and shiny clothing

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Yeah because he had a habit of being hot as hell

[–] Taleya@aussie.zone 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)
[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

I like 'em a bit younger

[–] myrrh@ttrpg.network 2 points 1 day ago

...east asians don't sweat, source: my wife...

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 3 points 1 day ago

That’s just what we had to wear in the late 90s. There was a whole new millennium coming.

wearing nonbreathable fabrics involves becoming comfortable with the idea and sensation of being uniformly covered in a thick trapped sweat layer

to me it's absolutely miserable but to some it's worth the look

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 4 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Balena looking sexy cute.
Kate... I want that call.
Who's the yellow shirt?
It's like they're all making fun of the stuff, it's great

[–] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That’s Jennifer Lien, who played Kes being filmed by Ethan Phillips who played Neelix.

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 2 points 1 day ago

That makes total sense now that you say it! Thanks

There is one photo in this photo shoot that shows a TOS episode on the computer.

Also, if I had been old enough with money, Kate would have instantly convinced me to buy a cell phone. But Robbie looks like a dude that brings that printer to parties.

[–] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Poor Ethan Phillips up there just holding the camera…

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Ethan: in character for Neelix c'mon Kes! give us a little dance!

Jennifer: Ethan...I'm uncomfortable....

Ethan: still in character for Neelix Oh hush sweetie. Nobody will ever know you're only seven years old. Now give us a smile and a little dance!

[–] yuri@pawb.social 2 points 1 day ago
