/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.

He is fully functional and programmed in multiple techniques. A wide variety of pleasuring. A fully integrated multi-fetish artificial being.

Tripolymer and bioplast sheeting popsicle*

His skull powders Klingon skulls, is it duranium? Maybe it's Maybelline?

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 19 points 2 days ago (1 children)

If they are fully functional ..... it assumes that they would be capable of providing sexual pleasure for either human sex. The butt crack is just another aspect of being "fully functional" ..... for any sexual event.

[–] Taleya@aussie.zone 2 points 2 days ago

...yes? That was why i quoted naked now?

(And archer but that was just gravy for me)

Heat and air pressure exhaust. It’s full of electronics after all.

[–] pennomi@lemmy.world 16 points 2 days ago (1 children)

You’re telling me that there’s a constant jet of hot air coming out as the CPU fans do their job?

Also he eats and drinks .... waste products do have to come out somewhere eventually

Racist.

If his glutes were fused it'd make walking difficult

[–] wise_pancake@lemmy.ca 13 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Plus he has a fully functional plug for the socket in the wall

“Smooth as an android’s bottom”

[–] Tattorack@lemmy.world 18 points 2 days ago

What does an android need with a dick?

Simple answer; to be fully functional.

(Also, the definition of android is an intelligent, automated machine made to resemble a human...)

[–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago

Is it not aesthetically pleasing, sir?

If they're supposed to mimic humans you'd want at least the shape of a booty. Otherwise you'd have an android walking around with Hank-Hill-Butt

[–] Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 12 points 2 days ago

Right. Like Soong is going to build an android that can't do a proper slut drop.

[–] daggermoon@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago (1 children)

He has a functioning cock too.

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 12 points 2 days ago

Oddly, it didn't get it's own display space.

[–] mercano@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Who put the torso on the rack facing forward but the hips facing backwards?

[–] gnutrino@programming.dev 10 points 2 days ago

Someone aware of which body parts do what to a show's age rating I imagine.

[–] Maalus@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

You can hang up the hips simply by drilling a hole into the rack

Because the prop department didn't wanna fabricate a gold dong

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 days ago

I just noticed how weird it was to arrange all the body parts in that way in that display.

If the ship had been lost, damaged or abandoned or some reason and an alien species had come upon it .... they would have seen this display and wondered what kind of weird crab like creatures inhabited this ship

We’ve seen data both eat and drink. It has to come out somewhere…

[–] Maalus@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago

For poopin silly

[–] pjwestin@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I mean, he does eat and drink to try and be more human. Where did you think it went?

[–] sxan@midwest.social 6 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Well, he doesn't digest. He doesn't need to digest. So there are several options:

  • temporary internal storage pouch, regurgitated later for recycling, or teleports it directly from his storage unit
  • raw material for some matter:energy converter.
  • mechanism, like a replicator. He takes in food and produces worthless but dense platinum.
  • he's got some simplified equivalent to a digestive system that breaks down biological material.

I lean toward the first. It's the most space efficient, and wouldn't bother him. The second is unlikely because he'd be able to function as an insanely powerful, world destroying bomb. The third is a very Star Trek solution. The fourth seems like a gross waste of space to no end. Is pooping that integral to understanding humans?

[–] Thebeardedsinglemalt@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Didnt he say at one time he converts some of what he ingests into lubricant or coolant for his internal mechanisms?

[–] sxan@midwest.social 4 points 2 days ago

You may be right. I don't recall, but I believe it if you say so. Maybe Tasha liked him so much because he was "self-lubricating."

[–] pjwestin@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I mean, I think, Occam's Razor, he's got a rudimentary, non-functioning facsimile of a digestive tract that takes all the food he mashes up in his mouth and pushes out his poop-shoot when he wants to empty himself. That would allow him to have a mostly human-like eating experience, which would aid him in his quest to be more human. I think Soong would have argued pooping is integral to the human experience (After all, he made Data able to pointless eat, drink, and fuck. Why draw the line there?), but even if he didn't, having Data lean over a sink and regurgitate everything he swallowed at the end if the day feels pretty inhuman.

[–] sxan@midwest.social 3 points 2 days ago (3 children)

I take it you've never known a bulimic.

Not implying it's healthy or normal, but it's not uncommon nor inhuman.

There's an ED joke in here but I'm not nearly spicy enough to make or post one.

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 6 points 1 day ago

He is fully functional, programmed in multiple techniques.

[–] guy@piefed.social 4 points 2 days ago

He's essentially a sex bot, making certain features important for all uses
