/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.

“Oh how quaint.” Easily the best scene. Close second being Spock on the subway.
How do we know he didn't invent it? Dr. McCoy approves
We call it sapphire.
Transparent aluminum is an actual thing.

Today I learned
I do love how despite the fact that the computer doesn't have the capabilities of voice interfacing, it is nonetheless capable of accurately simulating the properties of a previously unknown substance based only on its input atomic structure.
That is some very niche software.
I love how despite never using a keyboard to do anything, he then types out 1000 lines of code in a matter of seconds with 100% accuracy.
Using only his two index fingers...
Nah, Scotty just rewrote the software as he went along. Of course, nothing says he didn't also write in a self destruct to wipe out the program and the transparent aluminum, which is why history didn't wind up changed by his actions.
We have transparent aluminum now. It was first patented around the time the movie came out.
It's indeed quite hard, quite clear, and quite sturdy. It's frequently used as bullet proof glass.
HyperCard was pretty awesome.
