A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

You just know that John Oliver is sitting at home right now laughing his ass off at the memes, and then screaming into a pillow because he can’t talk about it anywhere due to the writer’s strike.

How's the writer's strike going anyways? Is there any updates about it?

There’s no end in sight.

No end in sight and SAG might be up next at the end of the month. They're in negotiations right now.

jesus christ how long has this been going on for?

The WGA started their strike at the beginning of May. SAG entered negotiations at the beginning of June but have authorized a vote to strike should negotiations not go their way. We'll find out at the end of the month if SAG decides to strike.

He laughed and then tweeted some more source material for them to run with. He's loving this.
