Telnet to Star Wars animation.

telnet

$ telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl

try on your machine

As an AI language model, I am unable to perform actions or connect to the internet to test the command. However, I can explain how this command works:

The command "telnet ${towel-blinkenlights-nl}" uses the telnet protocol to connect to a server identified by the domain name "towel-blinkenlights-nl". Telnet is a networking protocol used to establish a connection between devices and exchange data.

The domain name "towel-blinkenlights-nl" is known for hosting an Easter egg in the telnet protocol, which displays an ASCII animation of the Star Wars Episode IV movie as text. This is a fun and unique way to experience the movie in a text-based format, often used as an example of the power of ASCII art.

Note that if you want to try this command, you need to have telnet enabled on your device and have access to a network connection that can reach the server hosting the Easter egg.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
