Hey there OP with the OC, thanks for playing along with today's theme. If you ever have any other suggestions for a Wednesday Theme, please feel free to get in touch (typically with me, RHO, or WhoRoger). So far, we've had Droids, Aliens, Pirates, Expanded Universe, D+ TV, and Rhymes. Things will cycle around of course, but if there's anything else you want to dedicate a day too, we'll do what we can (by which I just mean: create a sticky; have a crack at it myself; and hope someone else does too, but it's something, at least)
Meh, I'm a generous / lazy guy, I'll let someone else do it.
Also: risa scares me
It can yes. I'll implement it in a few days when I've built up some comparative data to work with.
Oh right, I tried that - I was going to put a link in my comment, not just complain - but it didn't work, so I assumed it must be elsewhere. But now I've clicked on your link a few times, it shows up. Thanks.
Only that Perlman is saying "we all know who it is", which suggests there aren't other candidates up for debate as for who it could be.
During previous strikes, I think it was relatively small groups of men who actually got the negotiating done on the AMPTP's behalf, rather than the AMPTP itself. Iger was a part of those groups in the past, so maybe that's another reason.
It's probably whatever my phone charger uses (USB C probably), but that's mostly because I'm associating the little buzz my phone does when it starts charging with the connection. So yeah, purely fetishistic.
Ghosts (the US version)
How can you say this, when that version doesn't have Charlotte Richie in it. Not even once!
Follow the link from the LinkFixerBot so it'll load that community whilst keeping you logged in on your instance, and you'll see a big "Subscribe" button.
Learning the world, by Ken MacLeod perhaps. It's an alien invasion book, but it's humans that are the invaders.
This will likely happen again. There's a few posts wishing for the end of Reddit, but you may want to be careful what you wish for - if that happens, then the various "Reddit Migration" sites all regard communities set up by old Reddit mods as the "official" ones, and any community you may have spent time building up in the meantime are classed as "spin-offs" (at best).
So if you've started a new community because you didn't like the Reddit equivalent, prepare to get clobbered by a suddenly more popular version. It all seems based on an assumption that Lemmy is just a convenient alternative for a monolith, rather than something that could ever be its own thing.
3 subscribers?! How dare you?
I'll have you know that there's actually 27 subscribers (it may be that you're seeing 3 because that's how many are from lemmy.world - I can't claim to fully understand it all)
Ooops. I tested it before I posted, and the reason it worked is because it turns out that authentication isn't needed for that query.
I've edited the comment now, and there only being one part means that there's no need for an ampersand, so there's no probs with special characters.
