Yeah, Paramount’s CEO, Bob Bakish, seems to have largely sat the strikes out, only popping up in the news once or twice to say he wanted to see them resolved. It’s interesting.
Even if they wipe the continuity, which is still very unclear, is it really fair to call it a “complete reboot” when they’re using the same cast for the most prominent roles?
This is the official Lemmy documentation for text.
I don’t think indented sub-items are possible in a list, but there may be some wizardry I’m unaware of.
Tables are possible, but can be confusing. You might find this helpful.
what is the “URL” field at the top of this post for?
That’s if you want to share a link to a news article or video or something, rather than create a discussion post. Your post will automatically provide a link to that URL, and will also try to generate an appropriate title that you can use if you want (generally by grabbing the title of the page you’re linking to).
How do I make “minor separations”, where you have multiple paragraphs, then a paragraph with more white-space between it, but not like a header or a line. It’s related enough that I want it connect, but separate enough that I want some separation
I’m not sure if it’s exactly what you have in mind, but I find a triple dash to be a good minor separator.
How can I make Paragraphs have indents? (I know they aren’t needed grammatically anymore, but in some cases, a paragraph just doesn’t seem “right” without an indent…
If the focus of what you’re discussing is specifically Star Trek, the general c/StarTrek community would be fine. If you’re looking to get serious and in-depth with it, c/DaystromInstitute would also work.
If the primary focus is on the real world and the Trek connection is more tangential (examples: “cell phones were inspired by communicators” or “this new medical device is kind of like a tricorder”), it’s probably more appropriate for Quark’s. But there are some edge cases in there, and we’re unlikely to be fussy if something ends up in c/StarTrek instead.
You can find the moderators for each community in that community’s sidebar - just head to their profile and message them. This would be the process for both questions about community-specific rules, and appeals of moderator actions.
The downside to this solution is that the message is only guaranteed to be seen by the moderator you messaged, rather than the entire mod team, but we can and do communicate with each other as needed.
If I have questions about general usage/ support of this website (startrek.website), what’s the correct community?
This one right here - Quark’s.
If I am not sure of a rule for the website, where should I ask
Same as above, if it’s a general question about rules and not an appeal of a specific mod action.
If I am not sure of a rule for a specific community, where should I ask?
We’re still deciding on the best solution to contact an entire mod team, but for now, reaching out to a community moderator directly is probably the way to go.
Where should I ask to find a community on a specific topic?
This is significant, but probably not quite as significant as it would seem at first glance, if indeed the contracts are merely suspended and their terms will be extended once they resume.
On the other hand, it’s nice that the studios have dropped their “the strikes are saving us money” bullshit.
So, setting aside things like the episode count being off by two, Swapna Krishna is a freelancer, not a BBC employee, and is pretty prominent in the Trek space, and in fact has multiple bylines at startrek.com.
