/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.

Picard would absolutely be talking about this story

Picard would have the clay tablet in his quarters on a lucite stand

My boss: "Your work needs improvement, let's have a friendly chat"

Darmok is a cool episode if you get to the flow, but if you think about it too much, the actual premise of that episode is super weird. Like... the Tamarians can understand you if you use allegories even though they have no idea what the allegory is based on? Some kind of weird psychic abilities?

[–] VindictiveJudge@lemmy.world 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It's just memes. How many memes do you understand without knowing their origins?

[–] abc@suppo.fi 5 points 2 weeks ago

Oh! Interesting! Thank you for that.

Nanni, his anger immortal.

"Heh, heh, heh... Ea Nasir..."

[–] gnufuu@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 weeks ago

Is there a pun I'm missing? Sumerian isn't my first language.

It might not have been shitty copper. Ea Nasir might have just had a hobby collecting Karen clay tablets.

Nippur Temu copper
