It's just a long and tedious discussion of technical gobbledegook. I kept looking at the clock. As others have pointed out, there are numerous technical things that break the internal logic of the episode, but honestly I don't care so much about that sort of thing as long as I'm entertained.
The only reason to watch this episode is Captain Picard. He does a very impressive and funny impression of a boring convention speaker, and also shows his acting chops when his fingernails grow and when he has an unexpected encounter that makes him temporarily loopy.
