/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.

TNG s6e4 "Relics "

Note: Exception to the 2nd point being that it eventually results in the equivalent of Commander Data. The current Zuckerberg model isn't up to snuff.

The Zuckerburg model has the intelligence of B-4 and the malice of Lore. Definitely not up to snuff lol.

B-4 was far more advanced.

I can't explain it but every time I see "Zuckerberg" I always, for a brief second, read it as "Zoidberg."

Why not Zoidberg?

I wouldn't mind living in a synthetic artificial digitized matrix where my mind was completely controlled and manipulated by other forces ..... as long as they let me live in the Star Trek universe.

Congratulations, you are now Miles O'Brien.

But that's not enough suffering for us here, therefore prompting me to share this as well:

That's the one upside of AI driving: open Scotch in the car!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Given how nannyish most governments are now, I doubt they'll allow it, even when there's zero reason not to.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You are allowed to drink now if you're not driving the car, so I don't see why that would change. If the ai stops and asks you to take over you're gonna have to say no though

Not here you're not. There are laws against open containers in the car. Where is that legal?

Germany

Darf der Beifahrer während der Fahrt Alkohol trinken? Solange sich der Beifahrer nicht aktiv in die Fahrt einmischt - durch starke Ablenkung oder Eingreifen in das Lenkrad - darf der Beifahrer auch während der Fahrt Alkohol trinken.

Or in english:

Can the passenger drink alcohol while driving? As long as the passenger does not actively interfere in the ride - due to strong distraction or intervention in the steering wheel - the passenger may also drink alcohol during the ride.

I would ask where he can't? That seems a weird limitation for a person not doing anything at the time

It's illegal in 40 US States, and Washington DC.

Land of the free, I guess :D
