/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.

This reminds me of when I was adding wifi to the office for the first time and I had one guy convinced it was gonna give him cancer and refused to come into work.

HR made me sit down with him and explain why it won't give him cancer.

After a chat much like this I ended up printing off a booklet from the world health organization on it and he finally felt safe.

Wifi doesn't give you cancer, but 5G gives you Covid. /s

That's why the covid vaccines has chips in it. To stave off the 5G electronically so you don't get covid.

Explaining the word "non-ionizing" to people not familiar with current science can be a NIGHTMARE so good job.
