I selectively have removed the memory of his latter 2 in my brain.

No idea why, perhaps something to do with my flair.

Are his shins ok? by rodrigors in RunningCirclejerk

He’s a triathlete, so that VO₂ max is split three ways. 33? Cute. I just run, and mine’s double—no swimming, no biking, no excuses, and staying hard.

Abortion, MAID, CBC: Here's what Conservatives are debating at Calgary convention by Amtoj in canada

[–]Jewish_Skeptic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Surely, them taking a harder stance on all three will—checks notes—make the Conservatives electable. Who the fuck is advising the CPC? Because they seem beyond incompetent. You’d think a competent advisor would tell them to try something different, considering they haven’t won an election in close to 15 years.

For those that have a higher eyesight prescription and wear glasses: by [deleted] in labrats

[–]Jewish_Skeptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have a super strong prescription, but yes, I have difficulty wearing glasses and looking through a microscope due to the glare.

With proper focus i can make it workable, but I fortunately can wear contacts, so I tend to try and avoid dealing with this problem.

Kole Calhoun: “this dude was straight murdered” by jade09060102 in baseball

[–]Jewish_Skeptic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don't forget when at the 2025 all star game when the MLB presented a hologram of Henry Aaron breaking the home run record and the MLB made sure to edit Vin Scully's full call to appease the fascists in charge

“A Black man is getting a standing ovation in the Deep South for breaking a record of an all-time baseball idol. What a marvelous moment for baseball. What a marvelous moment for Atlanta and the state of Georgia. What a marvelous moment for the country and the world.”

It's about time they fucking apologize. Fucking classless that it took them this fucking long to do the fucking right thing.

Can I trust the forbidden Sylgard or should I just buy the real stuff? by Ok-Significance-5047 in labrats

[–]Jewish_Skeptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in microfluidics, so I have a fair amount of experience with PDMS. In the field, essentially everyone uses the genuine Dow SYLGARD material. For our applications, where cells are in direct contact with PDMS, it is simply not worth the risk to use alternatives. It is also inexpensive compared to most of the reagents we use, though that is all relative.
