/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'm pretty sure the subtitles I use are taken from the transcripts, not dictated from the show.
Which makes it interesting to see when the actors add their particular flair to the dialogue -- especially Patrick Stewart and Brent Spiner.
Out of curiosity, have an example?
None that I can remember specifically but it happens a lot. The subtitle text will be something like, "are you sure?" and Captain Picard would say something like, "are you ABsolutely positive?" And I think Brent Spiner added a lot of Data-isms that weren't in the transcripts.
I think most shows do it. Why would a company pay someone to transcribe when they can just pay someone to line up the audio with the transcript in 1/10th of the time?
No worries. I seent it happen before in other media.
At least in the industry I work at (making dubs), there is always a document called "As Recorded" that is an exact transcript of what was recorded, and usually doesn't 100% correspond to the actual script.
I think the reason they do the subtitles like this is because they can't be too hard to read. Some things just don't fit in time, so they simplify them. I'm not 100% sure though, I could ask my mate that works in translating/subtitling.
