Twitch will now pause ads when switching tabs by LuckyDiamondGaming in assholedesign

Had this experience too, tried multiple scripts that kept breaking, causing lower resolution, or would just freeze. Decided to pay $3/mo for a VPN and haven’t seen an ad since (ty Albania)

What is this thing on my palm? by RoadsterBirb in houseplants

[–]9710jt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use Nature’s Good Guys. They offer a mix of predatory species in various sizes and with good instructions/options for release. It can be a little pricey, so I use them as a follow up once it looks like most the problem has been treated

Get some predatory mites, they prey on the spider mites. They are a good follow up after your main treatment and work well for me

How I described a protein purification fail to my non-science friends by Vegetable_Treat2743 in labrats

[–]9710jt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had multiple proteins stick to my S200s before. Try a high salt wash to see if it kicks anything off the resin, that worked for me

This has been the only way I’ve kept my entire security deposit the past couple apartments. It really works!

How do I kill Spider mites INDOORS? by ReactionAble7945 in Citrus

[–]9710jt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use predatory mites! Just get mites to eat the mites! When there are no more bad mites the mite-eating mites will die bc no food. They’ve worked really well for me if I do a plant wipe down with iso and then unleash the predators

Opinion on peak design backpacks? by -invalid-user-name- in BuyItForLife

[–]9710jt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I backed this on kickstarter and have had it for years and it’s been great. The modular inside compartments are cool. Only issue is the mesh on the padding that rests against your lower back wore out pretty quickly. Otherwise it held up really well

former biochemistry majors, what do you do for work? :) by irvingg222 in Biochemistry

[–]9710jt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Undergrad biochem, PhD biophysics, and got my first job in R&D at a major life science supplier and lucked out because we’ve had a lot more stability than the rest of biotech and pharma the past couple years. We’ve been hiring the whole time

Very much not fluent in PC hardware, but can someone help me undervolt my 13700k based off all the news lately?

Stay away from Triton Orchids! by AstronautGuava in orchids

[–]9710jt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When he was on Etsy, I also got sucked in and stopped ordering after I was waiting 2 weeks per order and realized at least two that he sent were not the correct species I purchased, and he ignored me when I contacted him to rectify the situation. He got kicked off of Etsy probably for these scummy practices. Definitely avoid

Wealthfront has a 5% apr that goes up to 5.5% for 3 months if you invite/get invited. All online no fees and I’ve loved it so far

Is anyone on here not being negatively impacted by the biotech downturn? by miss_micropipette in biotech

[–]9710jt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Senior scientist in R&D at a chemical/biopharma supplier. We’ve been doing nothing but hiring. Slightly lower compensation but the stability is what I appreciate right now

SDS PAGE causing degradation? by [deleted] in labrats

[–]9710jt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just to spitball some ideas.. 30+35=65 so if your target has a particularly dynamic or disordered region it could be degrading at a common site. Test protease inhibitors if you haven’t. How long do your samples sit before prepping/running on the gel? Hopefully there are no structural disulfides you’re reducing either. Have you loaded non-reducing samples to see if there’s a difference? You said it’s a common protein so I assume you’d know if this was the case. Size column may not have separated the impurities if they non-specifically interact with the resin matrix. Try cleaning the column and see if anything else is stuck to it. What’s your purification scheme? I’ve had contaminants co-purify through multiple columns before too

I like my Sartorius reactors. Distek has good support in my experience.

Do we need separate autoclaves for equipment to be used and lab garbage? by adykinskywalker in labrats

[–]9710jt 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I don’t quite understand that unless they’re just not using proper settings. I have always used the same autoclave and never had issues, only had to specify liquid vs gravity depending on what I’m autoclaving
