/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. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

@jawa21@startrek.website for realizing that the line used to be "want to be added to the sidebar?" and capitalized on it. Congratulations and welcome to the sidebar. Stamets is both ashamed and proud.

I don't understand why it never occurred to anyone that they could just change the times they do things instead of changing the clock

DST was established in the context of anemic government trying to show extensive reach/control over the economy at a time where it had very little (arguably it still does today but only because most governments have matured to represent their most powerful class). As if to say "We determine the clocks that industry schedules by"

You clearly have never been a farmer

[–] nublug@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

farmers? the people who have to do things by daylight hours regardless what any authority around them counts as the time? they're the ones that need daylight saved?

what?

Like I said, you clearly have never been a farmer

[–] nublug@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 8 months ago

very convincing and condescending. now everyone reading is wholly swayed in favor of daylight savings. job well done. farmers need it because people who don't want it clearly aren't farmers. brilliant.

LOL explain how pigs and corn give a fuck about what time it is?
