One witness complained that the security was concerned about food and beverages being brought into the theater, but did not catch Loibl’s guns.

Sounds about right.

Also, the issue of obsessive fans is currently being highlighted by the plight of Chappel Roan, who now seems uncomfortable with the level of fame that she’d previously strived for.

Shocking stuff. Last time I met Tim, he offered me a glass of water, and didn’t even THINK to ask me if I had rabies. So insensitive!

I think this is the film that introduced Thomasin McKenzie, and it’s by the same director as Winter’s Bone, so it’s worth the watch imho.

Hello sorcerer. Please erase “Man, I feel like a woman” by Shania Twain. It annoys me anyway, but it not like it makes being a woman sound especially inspiring either (“Colour my hair, do what I dare” - woah, slow down there Shania!). Thanks.

Yeah. There’s no wildcard call. One thing you could do to script it would be pull JSONs from https://data.lemmyverse.net - use one for the initial effort, then subsequent ones to track new communities. You’d definitely want to filter it - as you’ve noticed the vast majority of that 30k are dead or spam or something you wouldn’t want for one reason or another (e.g. communities from instances you’ve defederated from).

As for what bots do, it depends on how they were programmed I suppose. There’s a bonkers one on https://leaf.dance that just seems to crawl comments and subscribe to any ! links it finds, but there are others (I can’t remember their names) where it’s more of a manual job (the mods of a community submit the details to it).

is it in reality not “all” but only “all posts that at least one user of this instance is subscribed to”?

Exactly this, yes. Not literally ‘all’ (a brand new instance would have nothing in its All feed). This is what was meant by ‘partial data set’ - everything for a subscribed community (from the moment it was subscribed to), but nothing for a community that no-one’s subscribed to.

Some instances run bots to populated their All feed more than what would happen naturally (with the idea being that the bot unsubscribes when a human does)

Germans no doubt have a single compound word for Annoyed-I-Am-Asked-To-Be.

OP is admin of https://diagonlemmy.social - if you look there directly (rather than at your instance’s copy of ‘leaky cauldron’) they seem to have an images problem - anything that should have copied locally is broken. I’m not sure that the same person creating a new instance (which is what they seem to be saying) would be the solution tbh.

Seems like ‘posts’ works okay, but it’s ‘comments’ that don’t (and overview is a mix of both).

API call to see posts:
curl --request GET --url 'https://lemmy.world/api/v3/user?username=beebarfbadger&sort=TopDay&page=1&limit=1' --header 'accept: application/json' | jq .posts[].post.published = 2024-09-26T15:35:33.998368Z (today’s top post is today)

API call to see comments:
curl --request GET --url 'https://lemmy.world/api/v3/user?username=beebarfbadger&sort=TopHour&page=1&limit=1' --header 'accept: application/json' | jq .comments[].comment.published = 2024-03-03T05:09:45.255807Z (this hour’s top comment was in March)

They probably know about it, but if not it’s probably a good idea to report the bug here: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues

There’s some dogshit comments on that article (as often seems to be the case with that cursed show).

I can’t claim to understand the numbers - is it possible the difference is due to the tax break that companies get for filming in the UK? It’s usually 25%, which about works out (25% off 230 around the 180 that Headland has quoted, and it’s totally normal to quote the figure after tax breaks when talking about budgets)

Poor old Northern Rail - they only just got WiFi in the last couple of years (that’s not even a joke).

I guess we can only be thankful that ‘map_enthusiasts’ is the name they went for (since MAP is a term pedophiles have tried to rebrand themselves with). As soon as there’s any overlap with anything that anyone finds sexual, it shows how ridiculous it all is (‘carporn’ is nice pictures of cars, but ‘car-crash porn’ is a form of Symphorophilia (arousal from accidents), ‘whatever-porn’ is nice pictures of whatever, as long as that whatever isn’t women, because women-porn is actually the thing called porn).

Anyway … clearly this thing annoys me more than it should.

I assume you mean the ep 7 reference, which I guess is:
“The long-term contract that I had to sign
Says I’ll be making these movies 'till the end of time”

Oh this is one of those new-fangled ‘immutable’ OSs. I just watched a PeerTube Video from The Linux Experiment about it - it looks complicated but it’s something I’d like to try out at some point in the future.

I just looked at Wookiepedia and it doesn’t list Cereans as being Monotremes, but my main takeaway is ‘Jesus Christ what a terrible website’.

Well now I’m thinking about this guy’s mother (specifically how long the ‘crowning’ process must’ve been whilst she was giving birth)

I know this has been said before, but ‘SFW porn’ communities - urgh.

Illuminating stuff. Feels like I’m space - the clouds have lifted, and The ‘Great’ Walz of China is finally revealed.

Since you’ve broadened it out to TV, I’ll use that as an excuse and mention that I think Nicholas Britell’s score for Andor is pretty cracking too.

Well, yeah. Dunno how popular those names still are though. There’s also androgynous-sounding name like ‘Alex’ or 'Andy, of course, but I figured that the general idea was to take a flight of fancy and riff on it, not shoot it down from the skies.
