/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. 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.

Fun fact: many (most?) email providers allow you to append "+word" to your email address and it'll still deliver.
For example, if your email is: [email protected]
You can use:
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
Those will all route mail to your main mailbox ([email protected]), but look different to websites.
I've been using this for years.
#1 it adds a new layer of security if there is a breach and you use a different, but not obvious, tag for websites like [email protected], [email protected].
#2 it helps to know if a website you sign up for sells your information, so if you get penis enhancing product ads sent to [email protected] then you know where it came from
#3 some sites don't allow the + so you're screwed
#3 some sites don’t allow the + so you’re screwed
Having your own domain name is great here! Plus a catch all address
But maybe you get spam at starfleet.ufp, so subdomains to the rescue, they NEVER get random spam, so you can have
[email protected] or any other address you want at @ds9.station.starfleet.ufp and have it go to your catchall address.
Some email services, like fastmail, will let you automatically respond to emails to your catchall from the address they sent mail to. So you will always respond as [email protected] if someone mails you at that address. its nifty. Good enough for the great link
Gmail lets you put a . anywhere in your address
Yes, and it's a problem because they allow different people to register accounts with dots in them, but all of these emails go to the original person.
For about a year, my wife was getting Uber receipts and email from relatives to some woman who'd registered the same name, but with the difference of a dot.
Did you know there's no way to contact someone when the emails you send to them are delivered to you? And that Google ignores messages you send them, even when one of their services is posing a potential fraud and security risk?
After a while, we started responding to her relatives with a form email explaining, and suggesting they call the woman and let her know what was going on. Eventually, it stopped.
Did not know that, that's so dumb. I wonder if that's why I get random emails sometimes from someone who thinks I'm a hairdresser. I had assumed it just that someone had a similar email address in spelling or something.
Might have to sign the most likely . position in my email address up to so much spam that they close their account.
That's one way to do it.
My wife was watching scooby doo and she said, “That’s fucking Jeffrey Combs”. We looked it up and sure enough it was the legend himself.
After watching through all of DS9 all I need is the chin for a positive identification.
I'm convinced most of the arguments on Lemmy are just Jeffrey doing character acting
The Jeffrey Combs Internet theory is a conspiracy theory that asserts, due to a coordinated and intentional effort, the Internet now consists mainly of Jeffrey Combs activity and unique character content manipulated by prosthetic and makeup curation to control the population and minimize organic human activity. Proponents of the theory believe these social Jeffrey Combs were created intentionally to help manipulate algorithms and boost Trek results in order to manipulate consumers.
Mine would be a whole page of different numbered Weyouns, so still Combs related.
Is this even all his roles?
I only see one Wayoun...
He and Chip Eston could be twins...
Used to do this with periods . Back in the day for streaming subscriptions. But now they have all stopped offering free trial periods for their subscriptions
wait, Brunt and Weyoun were the same actor??
