~~What did Ace Ventura do that warrants it being in the headline?~~
Or I could read the article.
@DosDude@retrolemmy.com another e.g.
I am not so sure why piefed is even ommiting
@lemmy.nzcomments, but I couldn't see @BasedMaquisEddington@lemmy.dbzer0.com’s reply to both bookmark and uprank.I think this might be federation. You are likely the first subscriber to the community.
I tried to mitigate that as much as I could by having a federation bot. But maybe I need to expand on it.
Yeah. Unsure what pylova is doing correctly unlike piefed. Might be an issue to bring up.
I do enjoy sometimes manually fetching comments the recursor hasn't gotten around to fetching.
Did it for the guilty gear strive 🧲.
Were you subscribed to the community before the comments were created? Comments only federate across when there's a subscription to pull them in. And the subscriptions don't pull comments retroactively, so it'll only work for future comments.
nay subscribed to eithers. In Pylova it populates comments if it just finds them, recursively.
But I see the technicality that occurred here.
Missed opportunity to cite The Crying Game (1992) in that article.
The trans scene in that movie melted peoples minds back then. So much so it was rehashed as a plot twist in Ace Ventura (1994) just a few years later.
Finally watched it. Thanks for the recommendation.
I thought the reaction of Fergus/Jimmy was too much. At least the movie answers its title early on. I don't have the strength of Dil to stay that loyal to my soulmate’s killer, even after all of that that she went through. But the writing was well done, even if it ended in a patriarchal message.adding to my towatch 🙇♀️
