Not sure this is what your asking, but the Auckland Symphony Orchestra played Sandstorm. https://youtu.be/H9r597vJbSQ .

Edit: Ive now realized orchestra and opera are different, but leaving the comment.

This is the last ad that had me paying full attention when it first came on. It was ran during the football finals season and they made two cuts, one for NRL and one for AFL. https://youtu.be/gbMeKMkE_mk

Episode 9. I saw Episode 7 at the movies and I was pretty happy walking out and it dawned on me that I’d seen it before.

I borrowed the DVD of episode 8 and pushed through.

If I remember right, there was a spam detector bot or similar which I’m sure was third party and it either went off altogether or the project was suspended after accessing the API was going to come in.

The old wand of scattershot.

I’m not sure if this will be unpopular, but if the emperor somehow returned, surely he could somehow go away again like it never happened and we get the thrawn trilogy and katana fleet.

About 3 months ago? They killed off the old award system. Gold, platinum, ternium , and the 100 other things you could add to posts or comments with reddit coins were Thanos snapped out of existence.

Now theres golden up votes where somehow if I spend real money and give something a golden upvote, the writer could receive real money (only for some countries). Don’t know all the details as I figured I wouldn’t be receiving any and wasn’t going to be giving any.

That got stuck in another canal, not the panama one. Maybe Suez?

May I suggest the fine words of two of the best musicians from San dimas . “Be excellent to each other & party on dudes”.

I know they’ve had a reference to vault in their app for a while now. I clicked on it several months ago and it said something about digital wallet and signups, and I stopped there.

I was binge watching the show “Letterkenny” One of their plotlines was about a Ostrich. Allegedly… Im Australian, No Ostriches, only Emus.

Its a reference to the show “Letterkenny”

I heard it was ostriches. Allegedly.

I thought of writing a reply over there and maybe they’d get something out of it, but i think anything said will fall on deaf ears. It would have been short and maybe been more for my benefit then theirs by getting some feelings out (edit: Can of worms opened & were off…).

I joined up on Reddit to interact with some nerds, i thought they were funny. It really helped me get through some trying times, especially watching “The game” and looking forward to its daily updates. Im sad it didnt finish. After the subs mod asked for more mods, i put my hand up and helped out for a bit with another new mod. This mod who asked was effectively running the place.

The active, long time mod sought to gain the top mod position as there were other mods who were doing tens of actions a month while they and the new mods were doing thousands. Reddit knocked the request back saying they counted as active. It was things like approving posts that didnt need to be approved and unstickying posts.

Without going into intermod drama, the active long time mod left and i followed shortly after. I had been spending many hours in the sub, getting rid of spam etc and something hit one day after the ad-free time from a platinum i was gifted ran out and i started seeing ads. I felt that Reddit giving active mods a free premium was the least they could do. I was seeing how much time i spend in the app and had other things to do.

I think Reddit has lost something, it feels different and likely the 3rd party apps have lead to a lot of key contributors leaving. After that kicked off I started putting one foot out the door over there and now i’d say ive got two out. I might stilll drop in sometime, but by will to create has completely gone. And I’m annoyed how r/blind was treated.

I wont be participating in place although i did for place 22 and found it fun. I will be curious about the results though and if someone goes to place extra pixels again. I know they are pushing for an IPO and think it will end up different to however anyone envisaged it happening in January.

I’m happy with Lemmy and this instance and will try my best to be a good participant here in recognition of donated server time and it being run as a hobby. Thanks lemmy.world admins for running and hosting and being open and honest about policies and events.

Dont trade with me, i dont have any to give. Platinum is more efficient, i dont know if the ad free bonus stacks though. Gold cost 500 coins giving and gives a week ad-free, Platinum cost 1,800 and gives a month ad-free.

If anyone has any coins they want to dump, r/GoForGold has reopened for challenges.

If you want to get rid of them quickly, a challenge could be like “first 5 commenters get a platinum”, you could award a community award. GoForGold have a 5,000 coin “Golden Bracelet Award” which gives 1,000 coins to mods to give out on behalf of the sub. (10,000 also gives them 1,000 so 5,000 is better value. same for the 40,000 coin award, only giving 4,000 to community). The GoForGold mods have a summer bonanza lined up and i think they’ll find a way to make use of all community awarded coins.

If you want to get rid of them efficiently, the timeless beauty award gives the awardee 100 coins to spend and the community.

Giving a gold medal gives the recipient a week of ad-free browsing and giving a platinum gives a month of ad-free browsing.

On the new scheme, A while ago i had Reddit app installed and noted there was an option for a “vault” in the menu bar where you could share stuff with other people, it needed a sign up for something else and i didn’t look further into it, but think it could be related.

Since all the 3rd party stuff kicked off, Reddit feels different. Also i noted they kicked up a stink saying that DNDMemes and NCD were both SFW when people joined and its unfair that mods changed it to NSFW. When i signed up i could award people coins and without a replacement scheme out for us to judge it feels a bit hypocritical.

any suggestions?

r/GoForGold has reopened for challenges.

You could host your own challenge or if you wanted to move them quickly, If you give two x 5,000 coin community awards the mods will get 1,000 coins for their mod pool and theyre looking to have a summer bonanza.

If you were to host a challenge, it could be like guess the three numbers i’ve picked between 1-100 for a platinum. Another poster has put a challenge there saying first 25 people to comment get a gold.

I once had the official app installed and saw it had something in the menu bar called “Vault” and was something to sign up for and said i could share stuff with my friends. I didnt look into it further, but think it might be related.
