Ok. I’m interested in what he’s doing whether for Star Trek or whatever.
This is exactly the kind of Trek-adjacent stuff I love to see here at quarks.
And this is why I’m saddened to see quarks restricted to members of the instance.
I do also see the need for a place to discuss the instance itself among its members but a ‘bar’ exclusive to members of a club isn’t really a fit for me with the name Quark’s - that suggests an interesting place where all sorts of people from 3 quadrants might show up to join in a conversation with the regular.
Quark’s has received a stay of execution until summer significant bugs with the private communities can be fixed in a future Lemmy update.
As much as I’d prefer to keep discussion of Quark’s going private restricted to the original thread, I want to take a moment to acknowledge that your concerns have been the most compelling ones expressed so far. I think we’re coming at the community from slightly different angles, but you have been heard!
I have observed elsewhere that no women are announced in the creative team. I hope they get a strong female-presenting A-list lead who insists on EP status.
He was on the upswing as a director until the debacle of the Thunderbirds movie basically made him unemployable.
Star Trek has enabled him to get back into directing work, and even some acting.
He’s been picking up directing work beyond the franchise over the last few years, but an EP supervising director role for an entire limited series adaptation of a prestige author is definitely a step forward.
Well, now I know who was the executive on the org chart responsible for all of Viacom and more recently Paramount Global’s stunningly awful corporate strategic communications.
There have been a lot of senior or management changes one tier down since the merger, but perhaps what was really needed was for Baklish and his top VPs to exit.
Yeah, it’s hard to speak in defense of their comms over the past few years.
I’ve never had an overly bad impression of Bakish, though - at the very least, he didn’t make a total ass of himself during the strikes, and seems better than, say, Zaslav over at Warner.
But as always, there are no true “good guys” at this level.
All I can muster to care about is story is the thought that my personal data, collected via their mobile app, might be changing companies on a thumb drive, at the same time.
I’m half expecting some type of “except for these 90% of workers” exemption, but until we hear about something like that, this is great. It hopefully will give employers a second thought when trying the “starve them out” strategy.
This is a bill to amend the existing laws. The amendment is really just about removing hurdles, period. There really aren't added stipulations about who it applies to. They also took the opportunity to make the wording more inclusive of everyone, dropping him/her, etc.
Thank you for this. That is nice to hear. I miss living in California so much. It was nice being in a state that at least pretends to care about its workers.
