Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is Fun!

General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

An interesting read that reflects on the state of decision-making in Hollywood at the moment.

The piece has the air of old ‘Kremlin-watching’ analyses in foreign affairs circles.

It’s truly bizarre that Geller and Zhao were given an official decision late on a Friday, just before launching major promotional events for other projects.

I’m not approving this because despite the popularity at the time and the ongoing interest and income from streaming, DVD, and merch over the years, I personally didn’t enjoy the show

I’m not a fan of MBAs, but I think an MBA would be able to see the fallacy in this argument. This person shouldn’t be in a position of authority.

The less corporations there are, the less executives there can be...

Nepotism will always take precedence, so the more a handful of corps control, the higher the percentage of executives are complete idiots.

Because all the new babies will always get a spot and preference on promotions.

Their percentage will always climb until critical mass where everyone is a nepo baby unqualified for even the easiest decisions.

They might have an MBA, but they got it into their school in the first place because of that nepotism. It doesn't mean they know anything about business. Doesn't trump have a business degree? Lots of idiots have MBAs
