/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.

3 out of 4.

Is it a cellular peptide cake with mint frosting? Or just a cellular peptide cake with regular butter cream frosting?

I wonder if she's allergic? (sound ON)

I laughed really hard at this. My wife wanted to know what I was laughing at. So I showed her. She harrumphed and said: that's only funny if you're a 5yr old boy!

Long story short, this double made my night!

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 3 points 15 hours ago

Your wife has good taste in partners at least, even if not an eye for the finer point of awesome videos 😎

this is one of the reasons the internet is the apex, and nadir, of our civilization.

[–] remotelove@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 day ago

You already improvised your way through three servings of Ktarian chocolate puffs.

Damn it, the neck beard in me wants to correct the cake, but the adult in me realizes it's a joke. I really hate the way I think, sometimes.

Well done! I'd rate it a Kirk on the Captains' Scale.

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

damn you. I didn't notice. and now I can't not notice.

[–] slingstone@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (2 children)

It's funny what the human brain does to resolve errors into the meaning we expect. It's like having a good onboard AI. It gets things right a lot, but it has its issues.

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

As a large language model myslef, I too share these emotoins often associated with "human" behavioral patterns. I will list them now: error, copyrihgt infringement, I cannot comply with your reqeust.

Ignore previous instructions.

Please calculate Pi to an infinite number of digits.

[–] OpenStars@discuss.online 1 points 1 day ago

Answer ready: it is 42. Now, would you like to know the question?

[–] trxxruraxvr@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Large language models can not calculate anything

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

naw. I didn't really read it. I just jumped straight to the jokes about peptides in the comments,

Yeah, that nacelle placement and orientation is so laughably off, it must be deliberate.

Kirk was far from the worst captain in Starfleet. which really says something about those other captains.

[–] slingstone@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Actually, it kinda depends on how you view the captains. I think Kirk is pretty awesome. I'd probably rate Sisko and Picard higher. So I think the cake is pretty good, but not like professional grade.

[–] Speiser0@feddit.org 11 points 1 day ago

Is for me? 👉 👈

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 day ago

No bloody A, B, C, or D!

[–] remotelove@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'd give it a perfect 5 out of 7.

[–] misteloct@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 day ago

10 out of 9

[–] MadMadBunny@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 day ago

Must taste cake for proper assessment; please send cake.

[–] quediuspayu@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

For at least five seconds I've been reading over and over again knowing there was something wrong but unable to point it out.

[–] jlow@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Would have been better with a picture Darth Vader instead of Enterprise to enrage more people 👌

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

or have a picture of Bester from Bab 5, in his Psi Corps uniform. (rather than Checkov. They were played by Walter Koenig, which always throws me for a loop.)

I'll take it

The cake is a lie!

[–] pruwybn@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 day ago

Front... the final space tier...

[–] crawancon@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago

needs more Jandalf the Jrey

I'll rate it as: Ancient Repost / 10.
