/c/TenForward: 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.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
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, odd. That's Dal, the lead in Prodigy roaming through a holo recreation of the D.
Wait now I have a fun follow-up question:
If you holodeck the D and then go into the holodeck, can you use that holodeck to simulate another Starfleet vessel with a holodeck? And if so, can you then use that holodeck to replicate the process with another ship and holodeck?
How deep do you think we can go before we start to experience collapse?
There's even a Very Short Trek that addressed that idea.
I don't see why not. If there were only one person there, the system could just not render the layers that you're not currently in, so it could go on forever.
In Star Trek TNG, the holodeck character Professor Molarity attempted the reverse of that. He wanted to leave the artificial confines and exit into the real world. Upon exiting and however it (the real world) appeared to Molarity, unbeknownst it was still inside a running holodeck session. And Lt. Barclay still owns that battery-poweted flash drive with that session still running in perpetuity.
One can only imagine the depravity he's put Moriarty and his beloved through since.
Shudder. Don't bring it up, keep it locked away.
I remember that episode!
Gotcha! Thank you for clarifying, friend ✌️
To add to the previous comment, and spoilers for those who care:
He's not any species, but rather a test tube experiment amalgamating the genetic properties of several Alpha Quadrant species into a single individual.
That is very cool. Admittedly I was inquiring so I could understand where the nostalgia attachment is (I didn't know it did not take place in an Enterprise-like ship so I didn't recognize the setting as specifically the D), but I appreciate the extra information regardless
