machine's filesystem (NOT attaching), it does indeed show up in zotero, does not make a copy in the storage folder, and i can indeed open it. however, i would really love to be able to apply the same annotations that i made to those pdfs bc they are literally the same file

[Sunny Ananthanarayan ˈsɐŋkɐlp ˈɐnɐn̪t̪ɐˌnɑrɑjɐn @sunmuffin42]

so zotero makes a copy of files you drag and drop into it

obviously that's not optimal in terms of space efficiency

how is one supposed to deal with that?
i could see one way is just if i ever want to pull up a pdf i either have to go into zotero OR go to the storage folder in>

Could someone clarify for me the motivation for keeping footnotes at the end of a chapter—or, worse, end of a book? I just haven't ever not been annoyed by it but I also haven't been involved with academic publishing very much

An index diachronica but for grammaricalization would actually kick so much ass

[Sunny Ananthanarayan ˈsɐŋkɐlp ˈɐnɐn̪t̪ɐˌnɑrɑjɐn @sunmuffin42]

has anyone used DMDX? friend is trying to figure out how to work it and tutorials seem scant (well, a lot of 404s) so even a link to a good tutorial (beyond docs) would be

What are words like home, school, town (and if in some parts of anglosphere, hospital university) called? The ones that don't need any determiner to be understood as proximal in some way, generally emotionally (with home especially)
Come home, X part of town, at uni, in hospital
