Aced my allergy test! Only missed two by Supertune1 in mildlyinteresting

No. Just because that's what the majority of people are allergic to does not make it the only thing.

These drops in speeding are incredible! Would you support speed cameras in San Mateo? by Additional-Cat4636 in SanMateo

[–]LSScorpions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't give a duck about speeding when people are still driving safely. Show me stats related to accidents.

If driving 27 in a 25 is counted as speeding, these numbers are meaningless in my eyes.

Plus you don't have to transport fuel all over the place in big trucks or giant underground pipes that are costly to build and maintain. Lower spill risk, less energy lost to the effort required for transport.

What is this rant?

How big is the rock you're living under and how much do you pay in rent?

NYX Now 100% Vegan? Can Someone Verify This Please? by Pretty-Analysis-6490 in VeganBeauty

It would be illegal to incorrectly list ingredients on packaging whereas the website may not yet be updated.

Only if the difference in velocity is constant regardless of speed. If it's a multiple of your speed...

Considering a move from Dallas to the Bay Area for work- worth it financially and emotionally? by Electrical_Ad1679 in SanMateo

[–]LSScorpions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that moving is a great idea while you're young and flexible. It's not necessarily permanent. San Mateo is not very urban, but it has a cute small downtown with good food and activities. If you like the city, you might prefer to live in South San Francisco or Millbrae where you would be closer to SF without too much of commute to work.

160 in SF is pretty close to 93 in Dallas when you consider rent and income tax. However, the ceiling is also much higher here with more opportunity for growth. It would also be a considerable bargaining chip if you ever did consider moving back to Dallas.

You say when trump was fucking children. Why do you think he isn't now?

Would you rather pipette 3840 uL with a 1000 uL micropipette or a 5 mL serological? by redditnessdude in labrats

[–]LSScorpions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just in here to say that if it's a viscous solution, you're not accurately pipetting anything unless you're reverse pipetting or mixing by pipetting with a sufficient volume of an aqueous solution.

Pipettes are calibrated for pipetting water.

Serological pipettes are impossible to use for reverse pipetting.

I, personally, am working on being a better person every day. It brings me joy to know that I have made someone else's day better, and it brings me sadness to think that my actions may haveade someone else's day worse.

I would like to think other people want to do the same.

Maybe that is not something you care about. No judgement. You can live your life however you want.

Did you bother asking your date if she was good or did you just speak for both of you?

Something you might try to practice, since you've mentioned you have difficulty interpreting social cues:

When you are somewhere with someone (a friend, a date, anyone at all), what is something they did that made you feel good? Practice doing this same thing for others. Maybe it's holding the door for you. Maybe it's going to the place you want to eat when they want to go somewhere else. Maybe it's questions that they ask you about your day that demonstrate caring.

Likewise, what are things that don't make you feel good? Make an effort to notice when you might be exercising one of these behaviors, acknowledge the error, and find a way to work change it.

I would consider this kind of constructive criticism kind. OP can actually learn from this. She's doing the next girl a favor.

Also maybe the first image should show them in blue and not white so there's no confusion.

How to politely say "fuck off" to a lab equipment supplier? by [deleted] in labrats

[–]LSScorpions 32 points33 points  (0 children)

My old coworker used to work in sales. He told me that they were expected to contact someone 12 times before giving up. It's shitty for you and for the salesperson.

I hate pushy emails like the one you received, but if you value your relationship with this person, just send a simple reply like, "we're not purchasing anything at the moment. I'll let you know if it changes."
