/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.

(Hope that sounds convincing, cause hell if I know)

I don't know about you, but O'Brien would certainly know.

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 0 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

Of course he does. He just doesn't want her knowing.

Huh. A lot of the Keiko/ O'Brien squabble episodes of DS9 are going to be easier to watch, with that idea in place. He's not divorcing or fixing his marriage, because he can simply outlive her and do better next time.

She's more like a pet to him

That's kind of the premise of the John Scalzi book "Old Man's War". In the book, they take elderly people (aka Wise people), and put their minds/memories into young fit bodies. This, in theory, creates soldiers who are both Wise, and Young/Fit.

Thanks for the new reading suggestion!

John Scalzi is an amazing author. You'll love it. Another good one by him is The Dispatcher. There's even an audiobook of this narrated by Zachary Quinto

[–] MajorHavoc@programming.dev 1 points 7 months ago

Indeed. And let's not forget "The Kaiju Preservation Society", and "Red Shirts"!
