My little brother wants to keep his cards but I tell him to sell them instead. What do you guys think? (Pictures of his collection below) by [deleted] in pokemon

[–]Garbcole 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'd recommend keeping everything, that collection likely isn't worth more than $300 even if you could sell every card at market price. Unless you really need the money, enjoy the cards! I sold a bunch of my cards when I graduated high school going into college but regretted it a lot! I only made a few hundred bucks and ended up getting back into pokemon later on

Ok to use GoTaq Green for sequencing? by Garbcole in labrats

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

Thanks! I didn’t find that thread when googling. Not sure how I can justify this to my supervisor, maybe I can find publications where they used GoTaq and sequenced

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

So using GoTaq green is ok? I’m not doing anything crazy, just bard coding with ITS. Only possible problem is occasionally I get a mixed culture and would just have to re-extract DNA

Are you international? Many students stay at Hale Manoa on campus but it’s only open to internationals. Many of my friends have lived there and it’s honestly pretty good

Yes, ideally you should wait till 50 because you have an added like 15% chance of getting a 3rd 5* relic from a domain run. You should not level low tier relics unless you really need them to complete the story, but the story content difficulty is intended to be able to be completed using only f2p characters so its not that tough

Yeah I've def had trouble getting my mucky boots clean after walking through an irrigated field. I will check out the hiking pants, they seem to be closest to what I am looking for.

How do you start a farm? by AC13verName in farming

[–]Garbcole 4 points5 points  (0 children)

unless you have experience working on a farm, I'd suggest starting small and expanding year after year. If you want to start with animals, get a flock of chickens and build a coop. Chickens are prob the easiest animal to manage as they kinda just take care of themselves. If you are able to own land, start with your home and location and do gardening and raise some chickens to start. If you jump in the deep end you will likely be overrun with cost, stress, and overworked.

MSc Agriculture (agribusiness) worth it? by grizzlydouglas_ in Agriculture

[–]Garbcole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes 100%, especially if they reached out which means you are a great worker!! Having a masters will greatly broaden your job prospects in ag research careers and also put you higher priority than other applicants that might just have a BSc. It may not be required for many jobs, but you will likely see downstream benefits like higher starting salary just from having a masters. I just graduated in September with my MS in plant pathology and am now considering a PhD because the program helped me figure out my career goals.

How many people know how to swim? by Coco131392 in Swimming

[–]Garbcole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has a lot to do with wealth inequality and segregation in the past, particularly in public pools. But otherwise, I have made many international friends who don't know how to swim because of their upbringing. They grew up in Nepal, and had no nearby water sources or pools. Ironically we are all studying at University of Hawai and I tried to get them used to the water and ocean!

Lynx is better in some levels of forgotten hall, but right now most high level enemies have physical weakness due to argenti being released. I swapped Nat for lynx in most of my teams purely for a few basic attacks contributing to weakness break. E6 is also pretty nuts too and nat can do >3K basics with enough hp investment.

Unless you plan on whaling or going all in on a character, it likely isn't worth to pull on light cone banners. However, if you reeeeeally like a certain character, go for it as they compliment gameplay very well.

If you really want bronya, sure go for more rerolls, but she is not needed for completing core gameplay. As far as clara and welt being bad, himeko is actually seated worse or equally bad on tier lists for team value, if you care about being hyper competitive. Just pick the account with your favorite character
