/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, neither is supporting people who actively want to kill those groups. 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.

MODERATORS
Are we so sure about that ordering?
Depends. Is there enough coffee to accomplish the latter, or must the second be carried out to fulfill the first?
I think you announce your intentions before the coffee, then you get the coffee so you can enjoy it more.
It doesn't hurt watching him run around the ship pleading for help, and while making eye contact nobody steps forward to really break his spirit.
So dark. Love it.
Okay fr fr, but...
Twovix (dammit! now I'm stuck with that spelling!?) isn't even the only pair of beings that she murdered this week:-).
We should do it in a different order each time
Randomization subroutine...
At a technical level it is totally possible. You just make the URL resolve to a different image each time.
I'm not sure it would be appreciated by the mods
(Wouldn't work anyway, due to Lemmy's caching approach iirc)
It should as Lemmy will pull any image that is linked in the markdown.
But doesn't the instance it is ~~delicious~~ (edit: FUCK AUTOCORRECT!) delivered to do that, and then if the image changes later, it wouldn't update? And then I thought further that people from other instances likewise pull from the host instance, rather than the original source.
Except maybe Lemmy.world, if the image caching was added in a more recent update, which I thought was the case?
Anyway, I'm not saying that any of this happens, only that I thought it might.
Just hot link the image to a host that you have control of instead of uploading it to lemmy. Then you can change the image anytime you like and it won't be affected by any caching on lemmy.
Oh, does image caching not apply to remotely hosted content? Well, then yeah, that sounds good.
That is what I have noticed. When I use Catbox, the exact Catbox URL appears on every instance. But when I upload directly to my instance, federated posts use their own cached image instead of the one from my instance.
Because I'm a fan of recursion:
I think it would have a better narrative flow if you were to swap panels two and three here.
Special delivery, updated meme template!
Designed specifically to accommodate Tuvix memes, but maintains broad versatility
Both work, but the option is appreciated.
I struggled with that
Riker gets the ball into the cup then makes both faces, so as a purist I went with the original narrative.
The swap would be better story telling here though.
Am I allowed to blame Rick Berman?
In all instances, yes. I can see the argument from a visual perspective, but you're right about the actual order.
👀 👄
I want this game as a VR game for ~~shits and giggles~~ discs and funnels.
I feel like a Terran whenever I see light themed websites nowadays.
I was actually just thinking that if this episode were made today it would probably be doomscrolling social media instead of a game.
