/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. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.

~ 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' and fuck over our artist friends.

Fun will now commence.

I think it's one of those things where you could do it, but if you had the required money, you'd do something far easier and more luxurious.

but dude, it's like a man-made private island. Perfect zombie apocalypse shelter, you'd just have to ensure they couldn't crawl up the anchor line

Even a big boat like that won't last forever. You'd need a lot of maintenance just to keep it afloat long term.

Needs a lot of attention just to keep it anchored!

It won't last long without maintenance at sea. Sea water is ridiculously corrosive to pretty much everything. If you want to live on a water, you better choose a smaller ship and put it on a fresh water lake.

Better yet you can stay on land and just build a hut somewhere deep in Russia. Russia has plenty of land where no human ever set foot, no one will ever find you. So you can live for free and do whatever you want. I remember reading Russian news a few years ago how geologists found a small village somewhere where people thought the country is still ruled by a Tzar. They missed Soviet times and Putin's regime, lol.
