/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. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

I would say so. Also, Borg Cubes are decentralized, which makes them harder to cripple, let alone destroy.
I guess that depends on whether or not force powers work a long time from now in a galaxy right, right here.
Yeah, they used to say that about queer people too.
Dark side pride!
Dare to be different, I guess:-D.
AFAIR the force only works in that galaxy, rendering Force Users incapable of their super natural powers outside or heck even influence those that come without ~~meaty chlorians~~ midichlorians (Vuuzhan Vong).
Fun fact, did you know that there is actually now a type of prokaryote genus named after the midichlorians? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midichloria
Didn't Ahsoka show that they worked in that other galaxy they went to? It was not an especially good show IMO so I didn't exactly commit it to memory.
We haven't seen the Borg using generic engineering AFAICR, but it seems like something they would do. Assuming midichlorians are canon, I think the Borg could discover and replicate them. Surely one of the species they assimilated had bioengineering mastered.
Oh, never stop working badly, autoincorrect! 🤣
What fun.

They did in Picard Season 3 (which retroactively told us they were doing it as far back as Best of Both Worlds)Oh right. I totally blocked that out.
that was basically the plot of Star Wars: The Bad Batch.
The best geneticists in the universe (the same who make the clones) couldn't, but they were getting close, in theory. Could the borg? Maybe. Eventually.
Definitely a two parter.
The death star shoots a beam so if the Borg cube was insulated well enough they could just let the death star drill a hole through it.
The planet killer shot is bigger than a Borg cube. In a DVD scene where the Death Star fills the entire screen, a Borg cube would be 1 pixel.
Yeah I suppose I didn't really think of that. I always forget how big the death star was meant to be.
