/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.

Surely I can’t be the first person to point out that Data is not the “driver” in the sense that he is not at the helm, right? Right???

Data is at Ops - the closest thing the TNG show had to a science station - because he was the Spock-analog.

Basically what I’m saying is that Geordi/Wesley/Ro/unnamed officer (depending on the season/episode) gets to pick the music, not Data!

And the reason why he isn't actually at the science station is that Brent Spiner didn't look good in blue.

That’s right! And they didn’t like the way Picard and Riker looked in gold, hence the move to red for the command division and engineering/security to gold.

And that’s the way it should be! Come at me, TOS fans! 🤣😎
