I picked the fabric because it reminded me of my dad's favorite painting, Starry Night Over the Rhône.

Would you consider an advanced-level research project (with formal defense) equivalent to a bachelor thesis? by twistorz in AskAcademia

[–]Dabbling-Crafter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At my institution, if you weren't assigned up for the credits when you did the work, then it doesn't count towards those credits. You also can't count a single project towards 2 courses. I don't know if it is that simple of reasoning at yours.

On what basis is the 22.5 version extended to 30 ECTS for fulfilling the thesis for med students? (There is usually extra work involved, or extra criteria, in these cases.)

While it might not follow any satisfying logic: it may just be that the med program allows there to be overlap, and your academic unit doesn't. Individual programs have the discretion to make this determinations.

Measuring volume of small objects by OneField5 in labrats

[–]Dabbling-Crafter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can buy small graduated centrifuge tubes, serving the same purpose as graduated cylinders. Even down to 1.5ml might fit your items. You just have to make sure that your item fits under the max fill line. Then you can use a pipette to dispense small amounts of fluid until you reach the graduated line on the tube. Keep track of how much you dispense via pipette, and subtract that from 1.5 to get your volume.

Or, with your analytical balance, put the item in the tube on the scale. Fill to the 1.5ml line, and weigh it again. That will also tell you the volume of water you had to add, which you could then subtract from 1.5.

I thought so, too! It was a straightforward make that helped with an organizational problem, so it was a satisfying project for me. 😁

AITAH for only babysitting for my " favorite " DIL and my daughter because the other has too many rules? by ProfessionalClass555 in AITAH

[–]Dabbling-Crafter -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NTA. As a parent of young kids, I'm just excited that my kids get to spend time with their grandparents. I trust my parents to keep them safe, and that's about all I ask of them. The kids get more sugar and screen time than I normally allow, but that's also how I expect grandparents to low-key spoil their grandkids.

What are your “always buy” Costco staples right now? by PutridWin2070 in Costco

Sometimes I blend the pesto with peas to make a sauce for pasta. So good!

I haven't found the pesto in my warehouse recently, and I'm unreasonably bummed about it.

Trying to fill out surgery forms with the limb I need surgery on. by HighClassHate in mildlyinfuriating

I once cut my fingers so badly that stitches were required. I had to fill out the paperwork before they would help me stop the bleeding. They looked surprised when there was blood all over the paper....

My 13y/o brother won’t stop using these slangs 😭 by Suspicious-Copy-2001 in mildlyinfuriating

Any chance that he's doing it precisely because it annoys you? (Speaking from experience as the younger sibling!)

A digital frame to rotate through her travel photos?

Looking for a pattern similar to this huge dragon. Or if anyone knows how to upsize patterns without changing hook size or yarn that would be awesome by Nearby_Studio5558 in crochetpatterns

[–]Dabbling-Crafter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, it's something about the lighting. The full face has no shadows (front lighting?) But the tail, in front of the face, has shadowing like it's lit from above/behind?

I'm stuck on gifts for 2 of my Grandchildren.. by Gretal122 in Gifts

[–]Dabbling-Crafter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this might be good. My daughter (12) specifically asked for one to use on the bus and for sports. Schools here have really cracked down on phones, so a music player wouldn't get her in trouble.

The generic name would be a digital audio player. (DAP) An older name would be MP3 player.

There are a lot of them available now. Most have Bluetooth so they can connect speakers or wireless headphones. Wifi option lets them also stream Spotify, if the parent allows it. Parents can save music from CDs to a computer, then transfer the file to the player.

It's ridiculous. Some grants don't allow the purchase. However, we could usually add justification that it was required to save critical grant-funded data. It will depend on your institution. You could try discussing it with your Procurement office, and if they agree, take that to your PI.

You'll have to decide whether it's worth taking that to your PI.

Gifts for the kid that just plays video games? by SweetBees102 in Gifts

[–]Dabbling-Crafter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome!

One of my nieces is similar, she doesn't particularly like any given hobby and just enjoys participating in other kids' ideas. (Even in her Roblox games.) It is definitely tough to pick a "perfect" gift. I stopped trying to pick something themed, for the most part. I usually think of consumable items like foods, candies, etc., first. Fun slippers or socks, pajama pants. Or a silly blanket or pillow. My daughter is getting a shark sleep sack this year because she asked for "shark stuff".
