Sounds like he should just pay to have his reels telecined himself. It’s a little pricy but maybe less stressful and they’ll return the masters. Think we paid like USD$0.50/Ft last time we digitized some 16mm we shot.
Assuming these were 16mm prints (IIRC old school TV used 16), a 48 minute episode would be 1728 feet, so about $864 USD for a 4K ProRes scan.
You forgot the best one

I think looking at the ships’ different roles may answer that question. The Miranda-class is a backline support and science platform, only called to the front during extreme circumstances (Wolf-359, Dominion War). They can be efficient at simple taskings like specific missions or supply runs. Like its successor, the California-class, they’re also the mass produced, easy to build/repair workhorse type, so a simple, tested design just works over a longer life time.
Whereas the Constitution-class is a much larger, more complex, and line serving Heavy Cruiser. Presumably being on the frontline of exploration and military intervention, they have a higher need for the bleeding edge tech The Federation can field, especially with the fleet flagship USS Enterprise. Its unique hardware would also make it harder to repair and maintain which probably affected the lifespan of the class as a whole.
Like others said, it’s most likely more sensible to do a full redesign whenever a new frontline or special class is called for instead of relying on retrofitting to keep up with enemy tech advances. Especially with core components like warp core upgrades, computing types (ie Galaxy-class moving to isolinear), or completely new tech like the Intrepid-class’ bio-neural circuitry. That could maybe answer the shorter lifespan only lasting 1-2 retrofits before class charge (ie NCC-1701-A/B to the NCC-1701-C to the NCC-1701-D/E)
“Is my shirt asymmetrical enough?”
Wat ya joking? Aldi is a German company. They also own the American store Trader Joe’s.
Ayyy fellow birthday week friend
I see the confusion by op. It says privacy-first, as in privacy is its core function not a first in its class. I think they just misread the title.
I feel like Lower Decks has the answer to these problems. Like at some point Starfleet had a meeting and was like “ok we really need a fleet of ships that just answer the boring shit”
Space squids fucking near DS7? Just California-class about it.
Anthony Bourdain: open the walk-in and you’ll see the line cook who’s about to handle your rokeg blood pie doing lines of spice off the Andorian fryguy’s stiff blue dick “as a joke”. Still you can’t find a better crew outside of Qo’noS, just don’t go in the kitchen.
You mean the literal dog whistle for racists? Because a large portion of pit owners are POC so they get to spew their hate without saying it out loud. Ever wonder why they get all bloodthirsty about killing those dogs? There ya go.
I was mauled by a German Shepard with shitty owners when I was a kid. They’re literally trained for military and police work, yet where are the GSD hate groups? It’s almost like the people who hate pits, are the same who bootlick LEO and have thin blue line stickers. It’s almost like breeds don’t matter, it’s the training by the owners.
Even despite that experience, I don’t hate GSD, I hate shit owners. Shit owners make shit dogs. It’s either that or Patrick Stewart is secretly pulling the veil over all of us.
But it’s not really the dog they hate… so yeah let’s not have them here.
Healthy couple walks by: aww that’s so sweet someone’s proposed! I hope they’re happy!
