/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. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.
~ 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' and fuck over our artist friends.
Fun will now commence.

Honorary Badbitch:
@jawa21@startrek.website 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.

Looking for the right Star Trek typeface/font for your meme? (Thank you @kellyaster for putting this together!)
No!
Absolutely not.
I want them to be uncomfortable, maybe get a little ptsd.
I want them to look me in the eye and explain what they didn't like.
Yeah, I thought so.
Remember, always keep your browsing history so fucked up nobody will want to ever even think about what they just read or saw.
It's them who wanted to look after all.
Don't use a work computer to search for weird things.
I used to use the company Wi-Fi to look for other jobs every time they threatened a change I didn't like.
What, and let my ~~ISP~~ VPN provider know how sick I am?
Nah, that sound like a work problem.
This concept some how goes over the head of people doing illegal and immortal things.
Immortal wouldn't be a problem, you'd think. Maybe if you were the Highlander.
This is me
Most companies run split tunnel VPNs, I.E they only route work traffic over the VPN itself. All other traffic, like traffic straight out of the internet, just goes over your regular connection.
This limits the bandwidth the VPN has to handle, especially important with people streaming so much.
This isn't everywhere though. If you don't know if they use split tunnel or not, assume they don't and are logging all your traffic.
Also, IT folk generally do not give a fuck about what you're doing if it doesn't involve malware, but there may be automated systems in play that take it out of their hands.
Ohhhh this explains how my router can tell me how much traffic we use for, say, Teams. I've wondered about that.
tech tip: don't ever do anything non work on work devices, use your personal devices instead
Best to use your friends device
Geordi’s Tip: Use a separate Holodeck for … personal things… to avoid embarrassing situations.
i got a burner phone just for that
Better: Isolate your workspace in a Virtual Machine and do the search on your actual OS.
Best: Make them get you a fucking work device.
If I’m doing work it’s not on my own device. You want me to sign in and monitor me? Cool cool cool when’s my laptop arrive?

Riker: forgets
Data (who admins the ship’s uplink with Starfleet): “I’m gonna pretend I didn’t see that.”
Commander, please refrain from making such crude queries on the ship computer. My most recent security review of the ships logs resulted in a short circuit in my modesty routines and 3 hours 17 minutes and 4 seconds of system downtime.
I'm guessing any time the Federation equivalent of the FBI gets a ping for whatever Riker is searching for, they just groan and go back to what they were doing.
Pretty sure reading up on how to grow shrooms contributed to be getting fired
Just use your Data pad or tricorder.
Data : commander no!
