/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.

Disney & Paramount need to make this crossover universe happen.

Gentle muppet sounds from a bio-organic machine hive is its own flavor of horror.

You need to know that you've woken a desire for a crossover movie in me so powerful that I will forever live a life of regret that it will never be written.

This beckons the questions if the Borg have backups of the hivemind to roll back to, just in case.

[–] samus12345@lemm.ee 14 points 1 week ago

The plan to use Hugh as a weapon against them indicates they do not...although there's always time travel, I suppose.

[–] CheeseNoodle@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

One way or another they want to assimilate the entire human interent so I doubt they're smart enough for backups.

Considering they are supposed to be past the computer age and at the deep space exploration age, it would be insane to not have tons of redundancies and work arounds, probably very poorly documented ones too. You think borg religion is about trusting old undocumented code no one knows the function of anymore?

[–] Wogi@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

I suspect that there are multiple Borgs at different, distinct levels of advancement and organization, some so far removed from the others that they bare little resemblance.

See: TNG v Voyager

Borg in the middle of a battle, systems corrupted, restoring backups, systems not available for three hours. Then some small ship thinks they know how to defeat the Borg only for their civilization to be wiped out.

I'd pay to watch that plotline

They just use RAID0

[–] jrs100000@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

They are a collective consciousness, not a computer program.

This comic is more relevant than ever.

[–] syklemil@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 day ago

I could see the Borg as viewing the non-Borg universe as just something for their feed, though. Something like you can vote for a civilization to be put through Alice In Borderland or whatever, and watch them struggle.

[–] Snowclone@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Yeah... I might be down. Cyberpunk zombies sound like a nice end.

Florpty hoondee floon is actually pronounced "För hundra gubbar, Borg spelar redan för Sverige, nu blir det bullfest hela dagen."
