When it turns out the table was Odo all along:

Oh Odo, didn't see you there! You see I was just making the game fair, as I knew some nefarious individuals had been going around and CHEATING! I couldn't believe it either, but as a business owner, sometimes you gotta take steps to ensure your business's survival. May I offer you a drink ^don't ^tell ^Kira

100% heard this in Quark's voice, with his rushed cadence and quasi-apologetic tone.

Yeah that's what I was trying for, glad it came across!

Xusontha, I need you to teach me how to post gifs to Lemmy sometime. Lol

Oh it's not complicated, my way is just overcomplicated "for fun". You just make a post like an image, but use a link to a .gif or .webp file (though webps don't work entirely right on Sync). You have to have it hosted on an external site though (any file/image sharing site like imgflip/imgur/catbox.moe) since uploading directly to a lemmy server makes it not animate. Sorry if that doesn't make sense haha, I'm not sure if I explained it well

Ah, I think my problem is that I was downloading and trying to post to Lemmy directly.

Testing...

Did it work?

[–] xusontha@ls.buckodr.ink 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Oh if you want to put a gif in comments you have to put an exclamation mark before the link, like this: ! [label] (url)

Ahhh! It worked! Thank you!

I find your lack of Dabo girls disturbing...

Oh Chase Masterson. I had such a crush on Leeta.

The sheer contrast in your comment having over double the updoots as the parent comment shows just how much better it is

I take inspiration from said comment (and by extension, it's post) and build upon. Were it not for it's origin, there would be no contrast. Such is the nature of /c/risa. We all benefit. - probably The Sisko
