/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.

I always liked how Riker was clearly uncomfortable with the whole thing and only agreed to argue against data under threat of data losing any and all rights

I always felt like frakes showed enough emotion that it was known it bothered Riker, didn't go overly dramatic with it.

Honestly I don't think I could argue such a position given I don't believe it, and I would defend with my life preventing anyone from making such summary judgements as a result.

In other words, "fuck this trial, you're taking data over my dead body"

Wow, I had no idea Data is so caked! 😚

Data is holding out for a hero.

Also Data: “Riker, you will not get away. I am really pissed off!

I need this mashup to happen yesterday.

We did eventually get Data's "ohhhhh shit."

Los Lobos. The wolves.

just looked it up. it is los locos? I clearly remember lobos.

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 17 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Los Lobos is a band that was also popular around that time.

To complete that thought, they did the cover of La Bamba from the movie of the same name.

Cesar Rosas, of Los Lobos, had a bit of a solo career. I ended up with his Soul Disguise album (courtesy automatic mailing from one of those Columbia House type outfits) and it's not bad.

I see someone saw the ad on streaming the other day.

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 1 points 4 weeks ago

Oddly enough, no, but glad that it's getting some attention.
