Why don't you perform zazen, facing a wall?
They do look formal but I wouldn’t say too formal. You can be formal as gently caress on a ship, it all depends on the service. The problem is that they’re ugly. Actual 19th century British naval costume would have been better, it looked and still looks smart as gently caress.

Red Angel is future Shatner Kirk

I was thinking Red Angel would be Picard and that's how they would spin off the Picard show, as Picard time-traveling around the universe or something. Instead, Red Angel turned out to be something even dumber.

In fairness, the TOS uniforms (The Cage style for women) are probably the best they've designed in 50 years in terms of being both iconic and actually readable; imo the only good part of the TNG movie ones is dress uniforms that don't look like poo poo and the post TMP TOS ones are mostly remembered because most of the good movies used those.

True, but at least they looked different than the ones on TNG that just looked like regular uniforms with minor changes

I remember when I was younger puzzling over these and wondering "okay, so what on these drat thing is supposed to convey rank" and finding out later that they just hosed up on the costuming by giving everyone double epaulettes.

I skipped some 500 posts to catch up, so I might have missed this being posted. Apparently machine learning upscaling may be possible on DS9? More info here.

I like that the WoK uniforms gave the impression that it was cold in space, but the whole thing is still ruined for me by that god drat flap. It doesn't make the uniform looser or any more comfortable, it's only there to indicate whether you're being formal and serious or not. And also to smear blood on. You know, in case any chief engineers feel like carrying the dead up to the bridge.

I always assume the point of the flap was to open the jacket up so it wasn't so warm.
