/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.

The resemblance is a little uncanny.

Bell Riots kick off in 6 days, and we have a proto Borg queen coming online in 2024 just like that old gypsy woman said. Maybe we do live in the Trek universe.

Bell Riots start in a little under 8 days. They kick off in the early morning of September 1st. Our trio of temporal travelers will arrive in 6 days.

Yes, my bad. I always think there are only 30 days in August. lol. Aug 31st is always like a surprise "bonus" day for me. ๐Ÿ˜†

Then the site is wrong. 9am September 1st is past the time the riots start and thats 192 hours away. 192 hours is 8 days exactly.

and thats 192 hours away.

Not anymore.

[โ€“] teft@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I was only using that as a measurement to show that the site was wrong. Even when I posted it I was wrong since I'm in Bogotรก time.

Ah! Colombian deception! I never trusted you folks and your... um... Rainforest? I don't know enough about Colombia to insult you properly. Oh well.

[โ€“] teft@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I'm american but you really wouldn't want to insult these people. They're the kindest coolest people I've met. It's like if Risa were a country.

[โ€“] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

I can believe it. I knew a Colombian exchange student when I was in high school and she was awesome. I would love to get in touch with her again, but I only remember her last name, and it wasn't exactly an uncommon one.

I don't know enough about Colombia to insult you properly.

Just remember that they fuck donkeys. I think that should be enough

Someone saw that Sue Perkins show...

[โ€“] negativenull@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

You are right! I never looked closely enough to verify!

[โ€“] teft@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

I figured out what the clock on that site is calculating. They're showing time until the riots end

var countDownDate = new Date("Sept 3, 2024 05:00:00 PDT").getTime();

So just take two days and a bit off that display and that's when they should start.

Roddenberry better be right about this one. If the Simpsons can call it as much as they have, Star Trek can have this one.
