i see where you're coming from, but some of the details in both games make it a bit difficult for me to accept that explanation (as much as i want to)

  1. vilia in BotW is repeatedly described as "a man sneaking into gerudo town". gives me horrible vibes of "men invading women's spaces", especially since link is required to stare suspiciously at her and is given the option to accuse her for being a man
  2. once you do have the vai outfit and can enter gerudo town, their leader - riju - immediately notices that link's "really a man", rendering the whole disguise pointless. you still need to wear it to enter the town anyway though
  3. you don't need to harass a trans woman in TotK, you just need to sneak in on your own. the gerudo then freak out because there's a biological male in their spaces - they don't phrase it like that but,,, that's how it feels. ugh. one of the returning characters from BotW then vouches for you, giving you permanent permission to enter the town. however, all the random gerudo keep going "whoa a man what the heck" whenever you visit for the rest of the game, no matter what you wear
  4. in both games, the gerudo are written as aggressively heterosexual and constantly fascinated with finding men to kiss. they're frankly not portrayed as positively feminist or remotely queer in any way, at least not to me

it's very frustrating 🙃

yes! she's protecting me from the nasty php 💖

fairly minor thing, but can you detect from sync whether a home instance allows downvotes? mine does not, but sync still displays the unusable downvote button on everything

[-] 00dani@lemmy.blahaj.zone 36 points 1 year ago

huh. what was the rationale for removing it in the first place? seems like a waste to throw away a whole codebase worth of perfectly good type annotations

this is her favourite spot to sleep 🥺

god i wish you weren't required to harass a trans woman to get this scene

god i wish they'd made gerudo town way less uncomfortably terfy in totk

sighs a lot

i have now done this with reddit, lemmy, and mastodon

ah, the joys of having multiple clients to the same platform

nah, D: is obviously your secondary internal drive for storage, because C: is an ssd for performance

she actually wants the E: 🏳️‍⚧️

it's looking delightful, albeit still in the early stages. i'll happily pick up sync pro once that's available, as i did for the old reddit version

one admittedly minor thing: my home instance disables downvotes. is there a way sync can detect that, and hide the downvote buttons like the web ui does? alternatively an option in the settings to manually tell sync that downvotes aren't supported would work fine too

[-] 00dani@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 1 year ago

in-app purchase! it'll be a one-time thing, like sync pro for reddit was

huge obsidian.md fan here. it doesn't have a web editor, but since your notes really are just markdown files it's easy to mix and match with other markdown editors. for quick notes i like to drop into markor on my phone rather than obsidian, since they're compatible and obsidian takes longer to load due to my love of plugins

i use syncthing to get my vault onto all my devices on the fly, plus a git repo for longer-term archival. i believe syncthing doesn't play so well on ios due to system limitations, however, so using the official "obsidian sync" service might be a better bet in your case?

ohhhh he looks so much like our sleepy kitten! 🥺 primrose, the kitten we adopted about two months ago. she's a teeny-tiny tuxedo cat, currently sleeping on my laptop keyboard, her head resting on my mouse hand.

the catgirl is right, that's the best way to do it. it wears out the skirt more if you pull it down 🤷‍♀️
