    I don't know why jdownloader isn't working, but I'll see if I can compress the size of the export more.

    jdownloader bypasses restrictions on downloads that websites like MEGA have. First, open Jdownloader - make sure it's running - and then do this:

    1: Open the MEGA folder

    2: Right click on the Boonta Eve video file

    3: Select "get link"

    4: Go to jdownloader - you'll notice the link was automatically copied into the program

    5: click "start all downloads" in the lower right

    6: profit!

    I'm a professional film and TV editor.

The work by other fan-edits is very impressive, but would not fit with the goal of this project. **The Boonta Eve Redux is comprised of the original show itself, but pared-down, shaped, and made strong.** That said, it's important to note that no amount of re-editing can fix fundamental story problems.

I feel strongly that having Kenobi and Vader encounter each other between RotS and ANH is, for many reasons, a critical mistake; likewise, having Kenobi and Leia encounter each other is almost as bad. However, this re-edit addresses some of the most glaring oversights and mistakes of the original show, while highlighting its few true successes. Ultimately, I feel that it's a major improvement. I'd love to hear your thoughts on the cut. Feel free to share, create torrents, etc. Thanks for watching!

    I just tried Threads for about fifteen minutes. Currently, it's overwhelming and... not good.

    Every single Threads user is displayed in your home feed, with zero option to only show content from people you're following. Hashtagging doesn't work yet, and most profile edits need to be done from your Instagram account, which clearly demonstrates that Threads isn't so much a Twitter/Mastodon/Bluesky competitor as much as it is an Instagram DLC. I'm sure it's gonna do gangbusters since it's baked-in to the most popular social platform in the world, but... it sucks?

    When making a post, please format your submission like so: MainArtistName - TrackTitle [genre/genres] (year of release) That formatting should read like this: Haddaway - What is Love? [dance/electronic] (1993) This makes it easier for people to identify the track, and see if it's even in their realm of interest before listening.

    How do we effectively report users and/or communities?

    [There's a user on lemm.ee](https://lemm.ee/u/XeNoX) who has been making hundreds of communities over the last few days, but it seems like a flag-planting operation more than anything else. It would be impossible for one person to moderate all of these communities, and they have zero post or comment history. Is this a bot, or a person with way too much time on their hands? Regardless, is there a way to, like, address this? Or is that a dead-end?

    Preserving Reddit's knowledge on Lemmy, and the ethical questions that raises

    "The Reddit Trick" in Google searches has been my go-to for the last several years. It's almost become a prerequisite for the search engine to even function at this point. However, due to Reddit's impressively thorough bed-shitting, and the in-progress mass migration off of it, it might be a good idea to have some redundancies in place for that weird, digital, usage-case-specific [Library of Alexandria.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Library_of_Alexandria) I feel a little funny about simply copying/pasting useful info threads off of Reddit and into their applicable Lemmy communities (*also what are we calling subreddits here on Lemmy? Communities doesn't quite cut it because subreddits is shortened to subs while communities is shortened to... well*), at least without having the original posters who did the work involved. If it's something common-knowledgy, like a Life Pro Tip, sure, it's fair game, re-post away. But if it's stuff that actually required any R&D, what do we then? Is there an ethical or moral consensus on that kind of thing, or is that still being built in discussions here? P.S. - I vote we call "subs" here on Lemmy "lubs" EDIT: lubs is a joke, y'all
