/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.

Every meme inches me closer to the idea of subscribing to Paramount+ so I can watch/rewatch Star Trek shows to better understand these memes. DS9 and Voyager especially.

Bastards. πŸ˜’ 🀣

I kept subscribed to netflix for at least a year or two just so I could rewatch oldtrek (they are on netflix in germany).

I then decided I should just make a personal library instead and save all that money

Yaknow, . . . my brother Rom may be an idiot but he knows where to get the isolinear rods so you can watch all those for free. Of course my services in this matter would still need compensation. Not much, just a few strips of latinum.

I'm an old fart with DirecTV, and Channel 20 (MeTV) airs DS9, TNG, Voyager, Original Recipe, and Enterprise into the night, every night. I'm not all caught up yet but I'm getting more of the memes!

Personally, I've watched some Trek when I was younger and loved it ... but it was only about the 2000s that I rewatched all of TNG, later watched all of Voyager ... and now I'm in the middle of watching DS9 ... and my wife and I are slowly working our way through The Original Series (it's the only Trek she'll watch) ... and even with all that I've watched, I still feel like I don't know as much as most hard core Trek fans

Someone has calculated how many hours it would take to watch every Trek movie and series ... it's a month of non stop Trek! ...

Every series and movie combined totals 837.5 hours, meaning it will take 34.9 days to watch them all uninterrupted.

... as much as I've watched, I think I'm probably at about 6-7 days of Trek so far ... some hard core fans have seen all of it ... multiple times!

Imposter syndrome!

The right amount of Trek is as much Trek as you are comfortable with! I haven't seen all the series either.

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 6 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

.... or .... there is never enough Trek

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 3 points 4 weeks ago

Ha! Nice. Once I get through Supernatural, I’ll be in need of another show to watch. I have plenty of time when my kids are at their mother’s…, so I feel confident I could catch up quickly. 😁

You could sail the high seas for a day or two and you would be able to download all shows and movies on your HD, after that just dispose of the ship.

You would have to live traveling the ocean though, if you also want to keep up with the current shows.

Or wait until a good chunk of shows are done or have enough seasons, so that a quick sailing would bring home a good bounty.

I myself have never sailed or written the comment you just finished reading.

Can also just buy the blu-rays/DVDs. I think everything except Voyager and DS9 is available on Blu-ray, with those two only having DVD releases.
