yeah i mean, theres no way lol. even if the tech gets here that quickly there’s 0% chance prices come down significantly on lower capacity drives. these’ll be at least $500 and possibly far far more

I wanna agree but in this particular case they all had those traits even before the show started (timeline-wise)
Ehh. Mighta been born that way (even that’s debatable) but definitely not anymore. Tendi is the ass-kicking heir to a pirate dynasty, Rutherford is an insanely talented and obsessive engineer, Beckett seems borderline unbeatable in hand-to-hand combat and explicitly dodges promotions, and Boimler is Boimler.

Trek tends to fudge the dates on purpose. It’s supposed to take place In The Future, and you’re supposed to be thinking about whatever philosophical concept the episode is about, not the exact timeline of events. From Wikipedia: “stardates were originally intended to avoid specifying exactly when Star Trek takes place.” I hate linking to Fandom wiki pages, but I’ll say the page on stardates goes on at length about how inconsistent Trek time is.
Jumping around within a single episode is a little funny, but doesn’t surprise me. Some writers try to be consistent, but maybe only for a few connected episodes, and some don’t try at all. Sometimes a character will die, but an earlier episode or a flashback with a clearly later stardate will see them alive. There’s all kinds of technobabble about where they are in the universe, and light speed relativity, and so on, but at the end of the day the show isn’t trying to hide any serious messages in its timeline so long as the story of the episode makes some level of sense.
I had a local paper do this to me a few years ago. Turns out I can ask my credit card provider to block payments to them at 2am on a Saturday and I still get access to the paper for another two months.
maybe, or maybe there’s some species ism happening at the upper tiers of starfleet. there are SO many species and people in the lower echelons, it makes no sense for the admirals to be so homogeneous. plus the admirals being bigoted aholes would play into how 99% of the admirals we meet are egotistical douches who seem to be working directly against the very ideals starfleet claims to represent
have we ever even seen a non-human admiral? the president isn’t human but it seems like the entirety of starfleet brass is
I think star wars just put less thought into what galactic distances look like. Han says the falcon can do “0.5 past light speed” but then they move from tattooine in the outer rim to the core world of alderaan in like a couple of days, max.
kicking her off the ship for emotional outbursts that… saved the ship. logic, huh? honestly i got the sense that she wasn’t really emotional even by vulcan standards, she was just smarter than everyone else on that ship. they berated her constantly for it until she finally gave a sarcastic reply so that they could give her the boot
I don’t remember anyone saying 10 was worse than 8. Maybe buggier on launch, but stylistically it worked more like 7 than 8 did
