/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 one little detail is why I believe Data did actually have some semblance of emotions even without the emotion chip, and that Dr. Soong was correct that emotions could manifest on their own if Data had the right experiences. It just sucks that the experience that triggered it was one that made him angry enough to try and kill a dude (even if that dude deserved it).

Possible. I believe that Data tried to minimize harm to living creatures by trying to no longer permit Fajos scheme (Data was imprisioned by Fajo, some rare creatures and another humanoid live Fajo killed earlier and put the blame on Data) and as such shooting at him. In sum: Data calculated the variables.
