/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.

The Orville is canon, right? lol

(Speaking to the replicator) One cannabis edible Oh, my god, seriously?

technically the 25th century, but i'm sure this isn't new for them.

this show is so good. it's a shame it's probably done now :(

[–] dangblingus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Scratched that Trek itch. Too bad Fox and Disney had no idea what to do with it.

[–] gregorum@lemm.ee 13 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

making more of it and on a regular schedule would have been a good place to start...

[–] LopensLeftArm@sh.itjust.works 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Seth recently said it's still in the works, iirc.

[–] gregorum@lemm.ee 6 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

how recently? because last I read was that it’s in limbo and not looking good since Adrianne Palicki won’t be returning. Apparently, with all of these long delays and uncertainty, she’s decided to move on.

which sucks, because she’s so great.

[–] LopensLeftArm@sh.itjust.works 4 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

I thought it was fairly recently, let me see if I can dig up that article.

Edit: Looks like it was a Jan. 5 article, so about a month ago:

[–] gregorum@lemm.ee 5 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

thanks for sharing this!

this is certainly newer than what I’ve seen, and while it’s more hopeful that what I read, it’s not much more hopeful. And Palicki sounds… a bit less committed to being gone forever, but she’s still gone. :(

I’m holding out hope, I really am, but it’s super-high budget for Hulu, isn’t getting the viewership they want, and has never been a high development priority for them. S3 didn’t pay off the way they wanted, and the SAG-AFTRA strikes derailed any momentum the show had moving forward then, letting other, newer projects slip in. Now, it’s adrift, so to speak.

honestly, I don’t think the chances are high, but I really do hope we get more seasons. S3 was, by far the best.

I've got friends and stuff who've talked about how much harder weed hits now than it did in the 70s or 80s.

I'm fucking terrified about the advancement in THC over the course of 300 years

[–] EmpathicVagrant@lemmy.world 9 points 9 months ago

It’s just bred for thc now, putting it somewhere near 3x the power as the old days.

I feel like the stuff they’d have in 300 years would just be terp sauce or RSO and isolate with extra crazy potency, maybe better tasting.

[–] gregorum@lemm.ee 7 points 9 months ago

as someone who started smoking weed in the 90s, it's crazy stronger now.

[–] ptz@dubvee.org 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)

On the Orville, Mercer did complain about Kelly's "weapons grade pot" so maybe your fears are justified. Lol

[–] LopensLeftArm@sh.itjust.works 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I like to think that by then there is literal weapons grade pot. Chronic so dank you can deploy it to pacify opposing forces.

[–] ptz@dubvee.org 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Well, today is a good day to die. 😂

[–] Thassodar@lemm.ee 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

More like Tuesday is a good day to die.

[–] LopensLeftArm@sh.itjust.works 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)
[–] ptz@dubvee.org 3 points 9 months ago

Thank you. lol. I did not get the reference at all.

Why do I get all the memes in this community now instead of Risa? Not complaining at all, these are fire, just wondering.

[–] mosiacmango@lemm.ee 19 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

There was a moderation disagreement with Risa, so the vast majority of meme makers moved over here.

[–] charonn0@startrek.website 12 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

It's a shame since it was such a lively and fun place for about 6 months.

[–] mosiacmango@lemm.ee 17 points 9 months ago

Pretty much everyone moved over here, so I dont think we lost anything in the process.

[–] angelsomething@lemmy.one 14 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Fairly confident Mariner Beckett could get the replicator key codes for it.

[–] ptz@dubvee.org 11 points 9 months ago

And probably Quark...for a nominal strip of latinum or two.

[–] SerotoninSwells@lemmy.world 11 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Having sex with a ghost isn't normal but on marijuana it is.
