/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.

Carbon dioxide is bodily waste and we aren't weirded out by trees craving it.

Bashir: Wait, are the trees male or female?
Garak: Should that make a difference?
Bashir: It makes a difference!

Speak for yourself... filthy trees.

I don't want to hear any kink-shaming out of you, you slutty little salamander

Then they need to stop sexual assaulting me every spring when they have their tree orgy.

Goddamn triffids are at it again

So does the Holodeck get rid of your bodily waste when it ends program or does it just fall out of the hologram toilet? And if the former, is that how all toilets work in the Federation?

Was just about to post this:

I also love how it's bleeped out what type of filter it is but even with how quick he says it and the mouth movement there's no way it isn't "cum filter".

[–] [email protected] 7 points 9 months ago

Jerry O'connel's delivery here just kills me

[–] [email protected] 6 points 9 months ago

I forgot about that. But that begs the question on whether the real toilets also have a shit filter.

In the first episode of tng, Wesley and Data explain that the "simpler" parts of the holodeck scenery is actually replicated, not just projected. I think this was primarily meant to explain how Wesley could walk into the corridors still dripping wet.

But that means at least the water and rocks are real, so when they "end program" it has to reclaim the replicated bits. And that's how we ended up with "if you don't shut down the holodeck safely, it reclaims everyone still inside" in one of the early episodes

I was going to type in the commands you used to put in to hang up the hard disk and close DOS in the 80s/90s, but dear gods I've forgotten. I've finally forgotten.

14/f/cali, you?

Yesssss that was it. Thank you.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 9 months ago

Nah they don't have toilets. They just use transportation to get it out automatically whenever it's there. /s

[–] [email protected] 6 points 9 months ago (2 children)

I mean, everything is recycled right? So they make it gas, energy, food, or whatever. So the real question is are you okay with bodily waste being atomized and given back to you?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 9 months ago

Unless everybody gets real cool about recycled air and water real quick, this space fleet isn’t going anywhere far

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

They can convert matter and energy back and forth. The food is created from energy, there's no recycling

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago

Holodecks are scary. If you don't know what's real anymore, what stops you from taking a dump directly on the bridge (and no it's probably not Worf who stops you in time).
