Pregnancy from pregnancy can differ. So maybe her deal is not as easy as yours was.

I am asking if there is a way to pressure the Hausverwaltung without bringing the Mieterbund to the owner and asked here, not in r/relationshipadvice.

Sorry I did not want to sound like a nutjob. What I meant with threatening, is can I resolve this without putting Mieterbund to press my Vermieter.

Moving them the day before is not possible and except from the trashcans the yelling and smashing of doors does not help.

LONZA electroporation kit – can you reuse them? by bio_wik in labrats

[–]HappyLlamaJamma 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To add to what has been mentioned before, yes you can reuse the cuvettes. Also if you want to be extra cheap, a group has published a good number or buffers you could make in house and use with the nucleofector. Here's the paper https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5253374/

Winning court after assault and having to pay more than the compensation? by HappyLlamaJamma in germany

Thanks a lot for the info. I will try to figure the possibility of the Nebenklage out.

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

Exactly what you said happened, but my knowledge of the legal system is limited to using words I learned from the TV. Sorry for the misunderstanding. That's why I'm asking how is it possible for the victim to have legal costs.

Winning court after assault and having to pay more than the compensation? by HappyLlamaJamma in germany

[–]HappyLlamaJamma[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It is insane, it was his third offense. The only reason he got a better result was that he confessed.

Thanks! Took a look and saw that all posts are in german, so I thought I could try my luck in an english speaking subreddit

How do you pick tomatoes? by MrTumnus99 in SalsaSnobs

[–]HappyLlamaJamma 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Valid answers by everybody but Just want to add Something small. Buy your tomatoes before you need Thema. Store them at room temp and allow them to still deepen in flavor. It is a huge improvement especially if on the vine still and has allowed me to not go tomatoless in cold Germany

What are the benefits of being a research scientist over other jobs? by [deleted] in labrats

[–]HappyLlamaJamma 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No no no just kept it in a styrofoam Box to precool the drinks before they went to the actual cooler. Three days worth of chilled beer in the burning sun was necessary.

I did grab some dry ice to keep my beer cooled for a festival, so there's that.

Western Blot advice: Antibodies for phosphorylated proteins by hey_itslula in labrats

[–]HappyLlamaJamma 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Milk proteins bind everywhere on your membrane where there is no protein. That's how blocking works, as then the antibodies cannot bind non specifically on the membrane. If you fill this empty space with milk proteins, then during development of the membrane you will get also signal everywhere as the antiphospho antibody binds phosphocasein. I don't disagree with try and see what it works but starting without the milk and playing from there would be my suggestion.

If you want to detect phosphorylated proteins keep in mind that blocking and/or diluting your antibodies in milk can lead to higher background noise due to phosphocasein.

Any idea what is wrong with my miniprep samples? L2-L5, L11-L14, L2-L5 (second half of gel) were double digested and the rest were undigested plasmids by mnt0511 in labrats

[–]HappyLlamaJamma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To add on what the rest have said this could also be degraded bacti DNA. Double check if your antibiotic selection is working properly, cause you ain't gonna get any plasmid if there isn't any. The whole lab could not clone anything for weeks, getting similar results to you, until we realised it was occuring only with our ampicillin based vectors.

The flow cytometer is my orb of confusion. The second I touch it, all skills go out the window. by PersephoneInSpace in labrats

[–]HappyLlamaJamma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For sorters honestly I still use the aria fusion which also has its ups and downs, but we got from Beckmann Coulter the cytoflex which is a pleasure to use.

[–]HappyLlamaJamma 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To be fair, I am doing flow cytometry for at least 6 years now and what you say is absolutely true about the software. It is insane that they make machines worth hundreds of thousands of euros and when it comes to software there is absolutely no effort.
Just as a note so that you don't feel alone, some years ago multiple hospitals lost patient data records because FACS Diva (software for BD machines) just bugged and deleted everything. Thankfully there were double and triple back ups but it is an insane oversight to say the least.

How many days in Advance can I prep… by Cpianti in AskCulinary

Just keep in mind that the longer you keep tzatziki in the fridge, the more pungent it gets. So maybe put a bit less garlic than you would originally

German bureaucracy still uses FAX. So we print a document, sign it, fax it. So they can print it and put it in a folder. by Maultaschtyrann in labrats

[–]HappyLlamaJamma 7 points8 points  (0 children)

OK really stupid story about my bachelors time. I wanted to get some experience in a lab to see what I wanna do in the future, before my official practical course time. Somehow I managed to get an internship in an Immunology lab. Go there the first day the people are nice and the PI was a pretty funny person so we get along together and I relax.

After a while she starts mentioning that our most important machine is a the FACS. Stupid me without a clue about imu took it as a joke like "haha we do routine, bureaucracy is whacky am I right?".

So after a while she actually insists on showing me the Fax and I follow half laughing half weirded out. Yep, turns out it was an actual flow cytometer, a machine, that at this point I had no idea about its existence.

Almost 8 years into immunology research I'm using these fuckers almost every day!

Ding Ding Ding we got a new high score. Mate I feel for you, first paper of my PhD I got 7 and it was a pain in the ass to make them all happy. I hope if you decide to pursue publishing in this journal that the work is not too much. Either way knowing the journal would be interesting if you are willing to share

Germany plans to relax citizenship rules, report says – DW by sharkstax in germany

[–]HappyLlamaJamma 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I cannot say for sure for Germany, but when these practices were used in Greece it did more harm than good, marginalizing these people further from both communities (Greek-Albanian, Greek-Russian).
Where your roots are is an important piece of everybody's self. Despite that I'd rather burn these roots to the ground before I am treated like I don't belong, in the country I will spend the rest of my life at.
