So, anyway, speaking of Bots, my Little Computer That Downloads Things said there wasn't much today. There was The Thin Man (1934) and it's 5 sequels, but I have 'Thin Man Franchise Fatigue', sadly.

There was, however, Past Lives (2023), which has very positive reviews, so my day will hopefully involve watching that later on

I just did this:
rm TEST/ * instead of
rm TEST/*

and spent a long minute staring at my terminal, having just nuked the contents of my working directory.
I'm sure there's lots of benefits to open-sourcing your stuff, but the big one for me right now, was that I was able to get things back again.

This plan of yours, to post more memes ... I would hope is a promise, but it kinda feels like a threat.

I assume they were talking about !newcommunities@lemmy.world

I thought for a second that the OP of the other post had changed the title (missed opportunity, there).

Serious answer: TIE fighter pilots climbing into their ships against the backdrop of The Eye, with the klaxons fitting perfectly with the music.

The ones added in the "special" editions

Although it can feel like "A link aggregator for people reluctant to click on external links"

Peg him as a wrong 'un, I'm sure they mean.

I don't want to watch Attack of the Clones again to back myself up, but I'd say the quote counts because it's her advice to a Jedi.

Like becoming a Jedi, it's all in the preparation

Relevant quotes for the case against:
“The Jedi are selfless. They only care about others.” – Qui-Gon Jinn
“Sometimes, we must let go of our pride and do what is requested of us.” – Padmé Amidala

Very true.

The comparison I had in mind was top-level web domains - there was all these plans (e.g. .net should only be for ISPs and telecoms businesses) that were ultimately ignored.

I came across one issue moderating a lemmy.world Community from a feddit.nl account - the pin I put in a post only happened on the feddit.nl copy, it didn't federate across to any other ones. That's the only prob I've encountered so far, though.

You're showing up as a bot, btw. Anyone with a blanket ban on bots won't see your comments, so it's maybe an idea to change it in your settings.

OP also has a couple of film communities, which maybe could have been put on lemmy.film. The Internet sees an attempt to organise it, and refuses.

Blatantly.

Well, personally I use IRC to steal media, but I realise that's not why you're asking.

I suppose the reason people might use it for chat is that it's been around a long time, so there's clients (with endless plugins) that do exactly what people want, and it's all simple, text-based often unencrypted stuff, so it's easy to write bots for (that might notify you of something, for example)
