/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.

So it's made of shit, right? And shit is an animal product. But barring a night of drinking or a particularly aggressive burrito, shitting does not harm the shitter; it's beneficial and required. Also the animals in question can and do consent, does that make it vegan?

Are tomatoes from tomato plants fertilized with manure vegan? It depends on how picky you want to be. The replicators just do it faster.

The replicators use human waste, so I don’t think the ethics of an animal consenting comes into it.

Not just human, to be fair. And they're still animals. Could I opt my poo out of being recycled on a Federation starship, you think?

But if you do that, what happens to that shit?

They make you keep it in one of those cylindrical luggage bags and take it with you when you leave.

"Do people really use it for that?"

"Yeah, it's mostly that."

Hah. True, plenty of nonhuman creatures too. But primarily sapient beings.

Maybe, but you’d have to find a way to manage it yourself.
