This is the Daystrom Institute Episode Analysis thread for Lower Decks 5x05 Starbase 80?!.
Now that we’ve had a few days to digest the content of the latest episode, this thread is a place to dig a little deeper.
@williams_482 @ValueSubtracted I think it’s like a website that got a front-end redesign but the back-end is still using super old tech.
Welcome to Daystrom Institute!

1. Explain your reasoning
All threads and comments submitted to the Daystrom Institute must contain an explanation of the reasoning put forth.

This entire community has a “serious tag” on it. Shitposts are encouraged in Risa.
3. Be diplomatic.
Participate in a courteous, objective, and open-minded fashion. Be nice to other posters and the people who make Star Trek. Disagree respectfully and don’t gatekeep.
4. Assume good faith.
Assume good faith. Give other posters the benefit of the doubt, but report them if you genuinely believe they are trolling. Don’t whine about “politics.”

6. Stay on-topic.
