you wanna see some badass shit from the early 20th century?? The Lumière brothers created the first full color photograph… in fucking 1903! So these dudes dyed potatoes (in red, blue, and green), mashed them down into just pure fuckin’ starch, and used these dyed potato starches as filters to block out/let in certain wavelengths of light. They coated one side of a glass plate with the starches and sensitized the other side with a mixture of gelatin and light sensitive materials (silver nitrate) and loaded these plates in their cameras.. This is a really simple explanation of the process and I may have missed some things

A few of my favorite autochrome photos:

So we got an Amazon Echo and we changed the wake word to “Computer” and now I feel like I’m on the Enterprise all the time. Additionally, whenever I watch Star Trek, she only responds to “computer” when Data says it and it’s kind of adorable. Not Picard, not La Forge, not Troi, not Dr. Crusher, not Riker. Not anyone but Data. The other night Data asked his Computer what the time was and my Computer told him it was 10:47. Watching Star Trek is even more fun now

Someone: Why do you like Star Trek so much?

I just finished reading James Swallow’s Day of the Vipers, the first book in the Terok Nor trilogy. While I can’t really recommend it, he did at least include some new Cardassian vocabulary. Most of it I’ll be working on over the next while (I’ve had an idea for a Cardassian geography post in the back of my mind for ages), but I can post a couple of things right now.

The Oralian Way features as a subplot throughout the book, and at one point, Swallow names the masks used in Oralian recitations as “Faces of the Fates.” This would be, in Kardasi, olla aThelaik (ohl-lah ah-Thay-lah-eek).

He also mentions seafruit as a sea cucumber-esque Cardassian food. Kaleanes (kah-lay-ah-nays) were probably named before people realised these things were actually alive. Whoops!

These two words, and probably a few more from the book, will be added to the next dictionary update.

Have a good one, all. <3
