Firmware updates fix some bugs and introduce others.

How did it take me until this comment to realize the name was a pun?

*any port in a pon far

That is definitely a TOS Romulan BoP.

I actually preferred the original theme. The increased tempo of the second theme bugs me.

I didn't like the first two, but Beyond is one of my top Trek movies.

I'm not keen on the nuclear hellfire bit, but visiting Risa does sound nice...

I never understood people that name their kids that way. Though I understand that the one that got eaten by a lava monster a few weeks ago changed his name to Guy.

That Paramount seemed to think for ages that the details of how they started production of shows were valuable trade secrets that must never be divulged certainly didn't help. They could have cleared everything up as soon as it started, but chose to keep their mouths shut, which made them look super guilty. Paramount Executives: making baffling decisions for the past 40 years.

Bashir definitely gets better. There are a few episodes that recontextualize his character and each one makes him come across much better. He also just grows a lot.

I figured they were more diverse before they started conquering other species. Military service seems to be pretty strongly associated with the nobility. My guess is that when they got some other worlds and species under their control Klingons as a whole became quasi-nobility and other species started filling menial jobs. This probably came to a head around the time of ENT. Some jobs, like lawyers and scientists, are probably restricted to Klingons for security reasons, but not as well respected since they're not traditional professions for nobles.

Meanwhile, the Klingons put the nacelle inside their BoP. I guess they just YOLO it.

Design notes for the shows have said that nacelles usually work best in pairs and with at least 50% line of sight with each other, but they're not hard requirements. The nacelles in TOS were supposed to be detachable in an emergency but it never happened on the show, similarly to the saucer section.

I think the explanation for nacelle positioning they ultimately settled on during TNG was something about the shape of the warp bubble, but I'm not sure.
