It’s -20F outside here. Pretty easy to take part in the strike today.

She’s one of the new snl cast members this season. Pretty funny in the home alone skit.

Unfortunately you don’t really have a choice. Organic and GMO free doesn’t mean herbicide free, and plants with natural tolerance to herbicides either have genes to detoxify or sequester them in their cell walls. If the sequester them, then you get to eat nice bioaccumulation of herbicide. Glyphosate itself is pretty safe mechanistically, however everyone forgets about the adjuvants its formulation.

I have 2 ender 3s, and they were awesome. I learned so much about engineering, gcode, and flashing firmware. I spent so much time fine tuning print parameters and installing mods, and I was able to get decent prints. I moved and picked up a bambu P1S, during a black Friday sale a few years ago. My enders are still packed and my P1S has just worked, giving me prints quality and consistency I only could have dreamed of using my enders. Now, I just need a project to recycle my enders parts into.

Long story short, use teaching tech ender 3 calibration guide, dry your filament, and install auto bed leveling probe that will account for warped build plates. https://teachingtechyt.github.io/calibration.html

Chrono Trigger remake, first all AI development, because we live in the bad timeline.

🤣🤣😂😂

Impulse purchase

It’s nice they pulled this nonsense during a steam sale. Cancelled and picked up halo mcc and silksong.

Growing up in the church, Mormons were views as just as Christian as Muslims, Jews and atheists, while Jehovah witness were extremist party poopers.

Nucleic acids

Over head tracks have a support structure underneath that causes blind spots.

The image looks like a Deinonychus to me

Lol, why’d this link get cross posted to c/vegan

My father gave up red meat and soda around 2002. My dad’s clone, my uncle didn’t give up anything. Yes they are clones, I sequenced them myself. Since then my dad has always been at least 20lbs heavier than my uncle despite having almost identical activity levels since they had similar jobs and shared hobbies for most of the time. Now 23 years later my dad has heart congestive heart failure and a torn meniscus in his knee while my uncle has a perfect heart but has needed both knees replaced. I think the biggest difference is definitely the sugar because my uncle tends to drink diet soda and my dad fruit juice, tea and coffee.

Definitely not, enshitification is real. I’ve gone from someone excited about new products to I don’t trust anything that I didn’t build. We are currently discussing moving our group chat off discord, but I’m biochemist and my circle are similar professions and I’m still learning how to properly host things.

In the before times we used hamachi, but it was hard. Eventually, Skype was born and it was good and easy. It worked like a phone and many StarCraft 2 team games were won. But Skype was corrupted by the many Nigerian princes and hot Ladies who only needed a few dollars to turn your life around. This corruption was then baked so deeply into windows it took registry edits to exorcise it. But all was good was we now had discord which took the ideas of hamachi and Skype and delived a better experience than both.

You’d be surprised how much money gets wasted of stupid projects and acquisitions in biotech because some suit think they understand science better than their R&D team. For analogy sake think about all the stupid shit Microsoft bought and killed or all the chat apps Google created and killed, this going to be Regeneron’s Skype.

If you really want to get your parents sequenced for your own personal use without it going into a database it’ll cost you about $500 per sample (cheaper if you know someone who can extract the DNA for you). You’ll get a set of fastq files for the reads that will cover almost their entire genome that you can then use with public databases or just store for future use. Another option is to sign up for a university study but you’ll have to be comfortable with their data use.

I honestly don’t know what they will do with snp data. These investors and VCs have been running scare peace articles for the last two years to drive the company into bankruptcy so that it could be sold and the data harvested. But I honestly think people are really overestimating the value of a dataset showing how different people are from a standard template. It’s good for ancestry and correlations but people forget they didn’t fully sequence samples. I fully expect the news cycle to change once they figure this out as they try to get people to resubmit DNA for nextgen sequencing, so they can try to salvage their investment.
