/c/TenForward: 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 worst she can say is "NO".

The worst she can do is find your holodeck recreation of her.

With AI being the default search tool now, it would make sense to have an AI assistant assume the identity of the search subject to explain technical matters.

The first version was closer.

The way I heard this joke as a kid was,

"How do you fit an elephant in a Safeway* bag?"

"I dunno, how?"

"You take the 'S' out of Safe, and the 'f' out of way!"

Then you would hope they actually arrived at the punchline, but you'd often have to prompt them a bit.

*Safeway is a regional American supermarket chain

My introduction to the internet was finding a page of elephant jokes. I will never laugh that hard ever again.

Safeway used to be in England as well

I don't get it.

Ahh, nevermind.

“Get the fuck outta way"

[–] mothersprotege@lemm.ee 2 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

For the record, they're supposed to say, "There's no 'f' in way!" In my experience, they usually say something more like, "What?"

[–] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 2 points 17 hours ago

That makes more sense.
