Whoever is in charge of DC's collected editions department must be an omnibus fan.

Just a throwback to one of the best teaser trailers ever. I get goosebumps every time I watch it.

IMO the only Star Trek trailer that comes reasonably close is the teaser trailer for the 2009 movie.

Die ganze Geschichte ist absolut irre.

Zur Übergabe in die Nachtschicht konnte sie allerdings nur an zwei Pflegeassistenten übergeben, weil keine weitere ausgebildete und examinierte medizinische Pflegefachkraft anwesend war. [...] > Besagte Pflegekraft soll zu jenem Zeitpunkt bereits eine Doppelschicht hinter sich gehabt haben.

Die sind also, selbst wenn sie "vollzählig" sind, zu dritt für 170 Patienten da. Was zur Hölle ist das für ein Personalschlüssel?

Und es ist irgendwie auch bezeichnend, dass es bei den Zuständen in der Pflege nicht andauernd einen politischen Aufschrei gibt. Bei Themen wie Abtreibung und Sterbehilfe wird ja auch immer über Würde und Menschlichkeit und so weiter gejammert.

rather than something separated from the main line [...] this will be something published in conjunction with the main line, part of a larger initiative that aims to spotlight DC's entire lineup. But there will not be a reboot or even a relaunch of the main line, that will remain intact and continuity (along with many creative teams) will continue on. 

So this is essentially a long-term Elseworlds or Earth-Whatever within the same shared universe?

For those who don't know the Roddenberry Archive: they're rebuiliding 3D modles of Starfleet bridges and other sets where you can freeroam, and sometimes even interact with consoles etc.

Last week I posted a thread about the bridges of the TMP Klingon Battle Cruiser and the USS Discovery being added. The official blog update is here.

What the blog update doesn't mention is that multiple existing locations have been extended:

That showed up on their Star Trek page.

The selections for DS9 and VOY are pretty good. Even though I wouldn't call all of them "the best", they're all above average episodes.

Meanwhile, the ENT selection of best episodes includes "highlights" like Acquisition, Carbon Creek, Marauders and Carpenter Street. Oh well.

»Arbeit ist doch auch Sinnstiftung, das strukturiert den Alltag«.

Sinnstiftend habe ich in meinem Leben bislang nur Arbeit wahrgenommen, die ich für private Zwecke oder im Ehrenamt erledigt habe. Erwerbsarbeit hat für mich nur dahingehend Sinn, dass am Monatsende Geld auf dem Konto ist. Ich beneide jeden, der seine Erwerbsarbeit auch darüber hinaus (zumindest teilweise) als sinnstiftend empfindet. Mir ist das in knapp zwei Jahrzehnten und in verschiedenen Jobs noch nicht gelungen.

Finanzminister Lindner zeigt sich überzeugt: Die Wirtschaft benötigt neue Impulse, um wieder zu wachsen. Dazu gehört für ihn auch die Arbeitseinstellung der Deutschen.

Bundesfinanzminister Christian Lindner fordert von den Deutschen, ihre Einstellung zur Arbeit zu überdenken. In der ARD-Sendung »Caren Miosga«, sagte er, die Arbeitsmotivation der Bürger sei wichtig für die Entwicklung der Wirtschaft. Man müsse den Menschen »Lust machen auf die Überstunde« sagte Lindner. Unter Umständen sei auch eine »Mentalitätsreform« notwendig, da Arbeit nicht nur eine finanzielle Funktion erfülle. »Arbeit ist doch auch Sinnstiftung, das strukturiert den Alltag«. [...]

Unless I'm mistaken, the Discovery bridge has been added only recently as well.

For those who don't know the Roddenberry Archive: have fun exploring. On some ships you can even leave the bridge and go to different areas of the ship (for example the shuttle bay or main engineering on the Enterprise D). Also, sometimes you can move or activate objects like consoles.

NASA Earth meeting

Are there also meetings on other planets?

To this day I can't believe that the first regular episode after the pilot was a story about the crew acting out of character. We didn't even get to really know the characters by then. What a weird decision.

The official F1 channel is really putting out some great content recently. I hope they keep this up for the remaining season. ^(Then at least the videos before the race weekend will be exciting, if the races themselves fail to provide excitement)

What a tonal shift from the last episode.

I think this was on par with DS9's Dominion War episodes, showing how the Federation ideals clash with the real world. It will certainly be controversial for being so "un-Trek". There's no happy ending, there's just the sinking feeling that a war never really ends in the heads of those that were affected by it.

The acting was stellar all around, particularly M'Benga and Chapel. [Edit: and Ortegas! Finally she got some material to work with that weren't funny one-liners, and she made the most of it.] And that final scene with M'Benga and Pike just demands a continuation in the future.

It was certainly an impressive, thought-provoking episode but if you'd ask me to rate this episode on a scale of 1 to 10 I'd have no idea where to put it. I'm still sitting here trying to wrap my head around what I just saw. I guess that's war for you. It doesn't make sense.

Fun episode. I lost track of all the references but I'm particularly delighted that they brought up the NX-01 and her crew, and that the NCC-1701 crew (what even comes after the dash?) is gushing over them, like we all are gushing over all the different Trek crews.

Das Wort "entlaufen" klingt bei Schlangen aber auch sehr witzig. Da hat die Kobra aber die Beine in die Hand genommen!

An okay episode.

Finally Una got to do something instead of being completely on the sidelines. The whole ensemble got something to do, except Ortegas who slowly turns into SNW's Travis Mayweather: that one cast member that is just there physically but doesn't get anything to do.

My personal highlight was the scene were Spock and Chapel play chess, and he passive-aggressively pushes her to play faster. Very Vulcan.

What irked me: everyone and their mother immediately started calling the First Officer of another Starfleet ship by his first name. That was weird.

Another weird thing was Pike's promotion to Fleet Captain. We've never seen this in Star Trek, particularly not when it's just two ships on a mission. So I checked the transcript of The Menagerie were Kirk speaks about the one time he met Captain Pike. And there it is:

MENDEZ: You ever met Chris Pike?
KIRK: When he was promoted to Fleet Captain.

SNW's producers were sneaky with that one. I'm both annoyed and impressed.

Dito. Wenn der Arbeitsplatz zu heiß ist und das Unternehmen nichts dagegen tut (oder nur so Pseudo-Maßnahmen wie die Bereitstellung eines 30 Jahre alten Ventilators, der die warme Luft umher wirbelt), dann muss es eben damit leben, dass die Menschen unproduktiver werden.

Ich kompensiere hier jedenfalls kein Organisationsversagen der Chefetage, erst recht nicht zulasten meiner Freizeit.

Shouldn't the logo be flipped because on Lemmy upvotes are blue and downvotes are orange?

Why do they ask for feedback for their platform ... on another platform? I don't have a ~~Twat~~ Twitter account and I don't intend to ever create one.
