You could mark one of the blades with red or blue paint so that you know you're measuring the same one every time.

When I was growing up, I had some family in LA & San Diego. One year when we visited them we ended up going to both Disneyland and SeaWorld. This was the late '80s or very early '90s and not a huge deal, I think it was just something to do to keep us kids busy. I know Disneyland isn't "the" Disney that everyone talks about so maybe I'm missing something but Disneyland was sorta underwhelming. I wasn't huge into Disney stuff anyway but I remember being kind of bored.
When we visited in 1997 we went to Universal Studios Hollywood. They had an attraction where you could get photographed in front of a blue screen and edited into a scene from Star Trek - they had uniforms and props and everything. I loved TNG and was so stoked to wear a command uniform and hold a tricorder. My uncle Ira was appalled that I chose TNG over TOS...I can still hear him saying "but that's not real Star Trek!"

Zarale was in his undies. But the people needed a hero and Li became one for real anyway when he saved the Emissary's life.

Just curious, why not? It seems like the obvious solution. And if your space is limited, there are machines that do both washing and drying.

Counterpoint: laundromats are some of the most boring and depressing places. Harsh fluorescent lighting, always some TV droning away with an annoying channel you'd never choose to watch and don't want to have to hear, commercial machines that vary from one laundromat to another so as an occasional user, you never know if you need to bring quarters or if it'll take a card, plus sometimes people feel entitled to take your clothes out of the dryer if they want the specific machine you're using, etc etc etc. Plus you can't just run a load at your leisure, you've gotta schlep all the way to the laundromat with your clothes and detergent. I get why they're necessary but I'm glad I've got my own washer & dryer.

Weirdly making me think of the California Raisins

Since the last release, I find that gifs won't play in Jerboa anymore. For example, [this comment](https://lemmy.world/comment/10622852) just appears as a static image for me, even when I click on it. Do you see the same behavior? Edit: solved by user merde alors: >did you enable "auto play GIFs" in settings>look&feel ? Then close and reopen the app and that should fix it.
I recently had surgery and while I recover, I've been doing a DS9 rewatch. I just watched The Visitor and I swear, no matter how many times I see this episode, it's always a gut punch. What a beautiful, sad story. Is it even possible to watch it without crying? I almost skipped it because I didn't want to cry today :'(
A few weeks ago I posted that my greyhound Greta was in the hospital, and so many of you left such nice comments and well wishes - thank you! She's been back home for a couple weeks now and is doing great. Here she is with her latest bandage (featuring a G💚 decoration because my vet's office is the best!):

Jerboa devs, thank you so much for the latest updates - I'm really digging the swipe-to-vote functionality! I do find that it's a little too sensitive and registers votes when I'm simply trying to scroll up or down in my feed or a comments section. I guess I don't always scroll in a perfectly vertical path. Would it be possible to decrease the sensitivity for the swipe-to-vote - maybe requiring a greater deviation from the vertical before a vote registers? Another really helpful feature would be to add vote indicators to the right of comments - the entire rightmost edge of the comment could have a color matching the vote I gave it, or no color if I haven't voted. Often if I'm reading a long comment I upvote it halfway through, then by the end of the comment I can't remember if I've voted so I have to either long-press or scroll back up to find out. Color indicators in the margin would be helpful!
My little old lady is in the doggo hospital right now (she will be fine) and I miss her and her sweet lil pointy face.  Please share pics of your dogs to cheer me up, especially if there are any grey owners here!

I've always had pretty nice, low-maintenance skin but now that I'm in my forties I find it needs extra attention. One thing I'd really like to improve is getting the glassy look. It seems like most women who achieve this are pretty young and/or on tret. I don't want to try tret because I'm very pale and already sun-sensitive. (At this point I've lost count of how many atypical things my dermatologist has lopped off, despite religiously using mineral sunscreen!) My current skincare routine is [here](https://startrek.website/comment/5908272). It's definitely made a difference for me but I'm looking to refine it. What can I tweak to get glass skin? Or is it even possible at my age without tret?
