    Re: your edit

    Google will sometimes show results from Reddit but ultimately link to a different post. AFAIK, the content that Google says is on the page may actually be content that is either from related posts shown on the Reddit mobile site or from another post somewhere on the subreddit (or maybe just somewhere else on Reddit entirely?). The timestamp that Google gives seems to be from when the linked post was made (with some discrepancies as to when Google and Reddit decide to round up or down in terms of unit time)

    Edit: I just searched for “Planck” on Reddit and immediately found this post, posted a couple hours before the Fediverse post

    Edit 2: a commenter had almost the same exact line of thinking that I had lol

    That is a suspiciously high resolution photo of a man who died in 1947. The odd camera focus, general glisteningness, (and odd framing?) and the lack of any matching results in reverse image searching makes me think that somebody may have used AI to produce an image of that which could easily be found with a moment’s search online. Is anybody able to find a source on this image?

    I can’t find a film date, but McDiarmid was filmed for the special edition of Empire Strikes Back as the hologram of Palpatine. If you want to be exhaustive, the actor (voice acting or otherwise) also has canon appearances as the character in Rebels, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Tales of the Jedi, and The Bad Batch.

    Edit: Oh, how could I forget? The Exegol Broadcast as heard in the Fortnite X Star Wars event is considered canon, and the Fortnite fan wiki cites McDiarmid as the voice actor (I genuinely could not find a better source).
