Poland stops giving weapons to Ukraine

The US gives a rare multibillion loan to Poland

Hmmmmmmm

realcaseyrollins OP ,

I don't think I'd call these folks marginalized, but they're certainly not rich or entitled for the most part. I think this all boils down to, do actors and writers deserve residuals or not. If they do, than their demands are largely reasonable, but if not, then they're not.

Interestingly enough, if a deal isn't struck I'd also expect Bill Maher to bring his show back. So we could see an era of late night talk shows resuming during the strike.

MLB seems like they want to fix this, wouldn't be shocked to see the other leagues quickly follow suit once they do.

realcaseyrollins OP ,

I see both sides. Haven't seen the movie but it's not so good that we're exactly missing an artistic masterpiece here. But I don't like the idea of art being hidden due to political correctness either.

But it being on Internet Archive is a good middle ground; if you want it, watch it there. Although if one would want a remaster of it I'd understand.

SAG-AFTRA Political Candidate Backs Plan to Sue His Own Union Over Its COVID-19 Work Agreement (www.hollywoodreporter.com)

Pete Antico, who is running with an independent slate of candidates challenging Fran Drescher, says members were "discriminated against and harmed" by the union's Return to Work deal and are "taking matters into their own hands."

How dare Elon Musk not be complicit in an act of war! Harumph, I say!

According to who?

I've generally figured that they're to the right of talkRadio, which is in turn to the right of Sky News, which if ofc owned by News Corp which owns Fox News (is it weird that I know this?), but I haven't gotten a handle on their general positions yet.

It confuses me that nations open up their doors to immigrants without first building more infrastructure so that both the immigrants and citizens can live together comfortably.

Jimmy Fallon apologises to Tonight Show staff after toxic workplace allegations - reports (www.theguardian.com)

Earlier on Thursday, Rolling Stone published allegations from two current and 14 former employees, including production crew and writers, who requested anonymity out of fear of retaliation. Rolling Stone claimed they had approached an additional 80 current and former employees, but “not a single one agreed to speak on the...

An apology is not exactly what I was expecting.

You can download relatively good sounding audio from YouTube but you need to be using the right format in YouTube-DL, which not all downloaders do

I would not be shocked if he is referring primarily to salaried employees with that one...

realcaseyrollins OP ,

Haha I will still post here! I've just been hosting communities from narwhal.city for years now, so it's just a force of habit I guess.

Happy to see some good replies here. Yes, it would mean that we'd need to hold car makes responsible for DUIs, Cutco responsible for knife attacks, even baseball bat manufacturers for violent attacks done with baseball bats.

It could also hold companies responsible even if they aren't actively manufacturing the dangerous item anymore; for example, let's say that Smith & Wesson stops manufacturing guns. Their guns will still be out in the hands of folks, and they will still be held accountable for the violence.

Edit: To respond to this:

Guns were made, by design, to be effective and efficient at the ending of human lives. Using the firearms in the way they were designed to be used is the primary difference for me

At a very basic level, guns are designed to, I would argue, send a bullet somewhere. If the gun reliably fails to do so (i.e. it jams constantly), or inappropriately deploys the bullet (i.e. it explodes in your face, shoots backwards at the shooter, or is wildly inaccurate), then I could see why the manufacturer could be held responsible, since the product isn't doing what it's supposed to do.

Imax CEO Talks Hollywood Strikes Shaking Up Theatrical Release Schedule: “We’ll Fill Things In” (www.hollywoodreporter.com)

Richard Gelfond said the large format screen player has alternatives for its studio tentpole release calendar with new titles like the Taylor Swift concert tour film, and local language film titles.

LOL

Who told them this was a good idea? Are they so uncertain of their case that they're bringing for over a hundred witnesses, in case tons of their testimonies fall through?

Trump is liable in the second E. Jean Carroll defamation case, judge rules; January trial will determine damages (www.cnn.com)

A federal judge ruled that the jury hearing E. Jean Carroll’s defamation lawsuit will only need to decide how much money Donald Trump will have to pay her, after the judge found the former president was liable for making defamatory statements....

realcaseyrollins ,

Not a Trump hater, nor a fan of most of the prosecutions against him, but we all should have seen this coming, given both his notorious sexual past alongside the earlier ruling that sided with E. Jean Carroll regarding this matter:

I hate it that I miss all interesting low volume communities posts

I wish Lemmy had the Mastodon functionality to create your own lists of communities. I subscribe to a ton of communities and I have a couple of them which are very low volume but I’m very interested in seeing each and every post there. Right now I have to remember them and go to them specifically once every couple of days to...

realcaseyrollins ,

I'd like this too, especially since I moderate far fewer communities than I subscribe to, it would make it easier to keep tabs on the content that's being posted.

Charter and Disney giving dueling offers to online streaming services for Spectrum customers (awfulannouncing.com)

This weekend has been tough for Spectrum customers who lost the Disney channels including ESPN. Spectrum customers saw ESPN go dark right on August 31 as the Florida-Utah game was set to kickoff. It’s all part of a dispute between Spectrum parent company Charter Communications and Disney over subscriber fees. Charter says it...

These studios ironically would be saving more money if they agreed to the unions' terms.
