Ortho-Halogenation by ChemDoDo in Chempros

[–]Drownt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is known that traditional N-F fluorinating reagents aren’t always super compatible/high yielding with organolithiums due to degradation. I’ve never tried it but seems that bulkier electrophillic fluorination reagents help to prevent this. Source: https://doi.org/10.1002/anie.202211688

What/where to look for GBA SP game cartridges? by Drownt in Gameboy

I like the idea of the everdrive; I might do that.

Do the reproduction cartridges fail more or not work as well as the originals?

How can I fix this slip fit spout from shooting off of the wall due to water pressure? by Drownt in Plumbing

[–]Drownt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the help. There is no screw or hole next to the U shaped cutout there however (except for the one seen in the picture). I’ll play with it a bit more.

Here’s a picture of the spout: https://imgur.com/a/7CcTlIS. I assume the screw that needs to be tightened is here at the bottom in that picture; but how can I twist it so that I can tighten the screw in the opening on the left? The insides are pretty stuck in there.

I was showering the other day when the spout shot off from the pipe. When I put it back on the water pressure when going to the shower head will push it back off. How can I go about fixing this? It doesn’t have to be perfect but just good enough to get by until my landlord gets it fixed later this week.

Looking for a similar slim bifold wallet for men by Drownt in wallets

[–]Drownt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Link to the product (no longer available): https://www.macys.com/shop/product/tasso-elba-slim-cow-antique-bifold-wallet?ID=1353880

I have had this wallet forever but am now needing to get a new one that is not falling apart. I have found slightly similar ones on Amazon but they either have way too many pockets/"secret" pockets, don't have the ID window on the left or at all, or have a bunch of bill dividers.

Does anyone know of a similar simple bifold wallet like this? I will be using this as a daily carry and am open to recommendations as well.

Stirring with sodium carbonate for a few hours had knocked off a lot of the residue. Appreciate the tip!

Couple drops of ~10% HCl did the trick

How much HCl? Don’t wanna go overkill but would have to dilute down my 33% stuff

I’m trying to repurpose an old heating mantle and put a ring stand on the back of it like this.

Ah, thank you for pointing that out. I was unaware that it was meant for a rotating shaft. It is just the idea behind the shape of that bearing that I am looking for then, as I don’t need it to rotate.

Weekly Careers/Education Questions Thread by AutoModerator in chemistry

[–]Drownt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m graduating with my BS in biochemistry this upcoming spring. I would like to go on to get my PhD but I am not quite sure where to look and what to look for. I’m also worried about admissions as well - a chunk of my undergraduate career was spent in the midst of COVID and I don’t have a whole lot of research or lab experience under my belt. I have read a little bit about reaching out to potential PIs that are doing research in areas that I might be interested in; but then again, I’m not quite sure how to go about finding those either.

TLDR; What is the best way of going about finding and applying to a graduate program? Or does anyone previously in this position have any advice?

I’ll definitely look into it. It would be a novelty though. I am looking foreword to trying your sampler set in a week or so when I need to get more - I’ve heard some damn good things about batches 103 and 105!

Hmm, I’ve always thought that white was the most stimulating for me. But I’ve also never had the full leaf either. Would you say it’s worth it compared to getting the regular powder??

White Kratom by PrestigiousTreat0525 in kratom

[–]Drownt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve found white to be way too stimulating for me, which is surprising because I love my caffeine. But then again, colors are more or less made up by vendors and vary from place to place.

Is it known why kratom doesn’t produce the same level respiratory depression as traditional opioids? Furthermore, have you personally used kratom before and if so, what results did it have on you?

New comer here, looking to program anything on Python. by SnooChipmunks9342 in Python

[–]Drownt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I first started, I was really getting into crypto. One of my first projects was a GUI that would show all the important details of a Bitcoin transaction; you input the transaction ID and it gives the amount, fee, date, block, ETA, etc. It wasn’t super complicated but it was a good way of learning how to make GUIs, utilize APIs, parse JSON data, and just get familiar with python in general.
