/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.

@[email protected] 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.

If a HDD is a 1 TiB, it should be marketed as such. If it is 1TB, it should be marketed as such.

If you buy a 1TB HDD and it appears as 931GB in Windows, then that is expected behaviour, as Microsoft has chosen to incorrectly label GiB as GB. Take it to them. They're the multi-trillion dollar company to be angry at for falsely presenting numbers.

If they instead showed a GB number (rather than showing the GiB number but labelling it as GB) it would show the 1000GB as expected.

I know you're really going for a "you're a corporate bootlicker in the pockets of WD and Seagate", but it's really not sticking. I think you're just going out looking for an argument.
