/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. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

I haven't watched much of Prodigy because it's just not adult enough for me overall, but I do appreciate a Star Trek show with no human characters (unless you count holograms).

[–] DharmaCurious@startrek.website 27 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I felt the same way until I got around episode 5, and holy crap, it's good. I cannot wait for season 2.

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 18 points 10 months ago (2 children)

By the start of the second block of ten episodes (which should have just been labeled season 2 with the wait time) it's more recognizably Trek. They just needed a handful of episodes to establish characters and the larger conflicts.

[–] TheActualDevil@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Also they took that time to just do Guardians of the Galaxy. It's not a complaint, but it definitely starts off waaay to close to GotG with a reskin.

[–] DharmaCurious@startrek.website 2 points 10 months ago

I do love a 20 episode season, but i watched it on netflix, so it flowes pretty nice. But yeah, as soon as they had found their groove, that show really rocked, and felt more trek than much of Lower Decks. I really enjoyed it.

I went to look for Prodigy just yesterday. WTF paramount!! Also all the movies are gone, too!

[–] AArun@programming.dev 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I recently went through this too. Movies are on max currently

[–] aniki@lemm.ee 12 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I dumped max because everything was on Paramount! :( I torrented all the movies and put them on my NAS.

[–] AArun@programming.dev 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Honestly I need to get things together and setup a NAS because bouncing from service to service is becoming bothersome.

[–] aniki@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago

For YEARS mine was nothing more than a USB spinny drive plugged into my router [DDRWT] running a Samba share.

Now that I'm getting back into storing media, I'll probably get something small with a few PCIE lanes I can run NVME drives off and run a software RAID array with a backup drive.

[–] Daxtron2@startrek.website 10 points 10 months ago (1 children)

The only reason I even have paramount is Star Trek, and now they don't even have all of it? I hate what streaming services have become.

[–] Stamets@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Honestly? Same. I can't really afford anything extra, nevermind Paramount+, but I have it specifically because I want to support Star Trek and help new Trek get made. Totally understand piracy and not shaming, but personally I just feel the need to add those few extra bucks.

But removing the movies from Paramount+ and putting them on HBO is idiotic. Cancelling your own show and then removing that show from your service is equally fucking stupid, especially when the second season was already made and ready to go.

Yep! Started airing on Christmas on Netflix

[–] TWeaK@lemm.ee 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Fair play! It should surely be sailing by now.

I’m actually considering subscribing to Netflix again just to support this, first season was fantastic
