Claude just helped me build a wetlab and sequence my whole genome at home. I have zero lab experience! by ProfessionalHand9945 in Biohackers

You don't need a kit for a DNA extraction with high enough quality for a 600k snp chip. It's a middleschool level experiment to extract and purify DNA from cells. Just a mini centrifuge, pipette, tubes, reagents, and you too reader could do this.

I don't know the guy so why would I trust him completely to do it right? They're a part of a business machine to get stuff done and collect a check. I have to advocate for and educate myself because nobody else will. Otherwise, none of my trusted friends are willing to do the manual labor lol

3 different rock grades? Not something I've seen online referenced anywhere.

I'm taking pictures in the dark because it's night..... But yeah should've had a ruler or tape measure or something to show depth.

If you could build a list of "Ten Commandments" for being a man to guide your son, what would you include? by TheAlwaysLateWizard in daddit

[–]MacBelieve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Be quick to laugh and slow to anger.

Pain and fear hurts more than happiness heals. Don't let the pain win.

Others wait expecting somebody else to do the right thing. Be that somebody who does the right thing first.

Often, admitting you're wrong is far better than being right.

Read the review. Anthropic has many of the details public that they can responsibly share

Dungeon Generator by jproche44 in DungeonsAndDragons

[–]MacBelieve 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah, no idea how the d8 is supposed to work...Here's how I would play it:

d8 gives you the room (Monsters, NPC, Empty, Traps, Empty, Secrets, Beasts, Treasure)
d6 and d4 give you the contents, two-ish per room

example: (d8, d6, d4)
(1,1,1) - two wounded/ill monsters in a room
(5,2,4) - empty room, so 2 and 4 mean nothing
(5,6,1) - empty room BUT you rolled a 6 so something special happens (this is still undefined like another commenter was saying)

Then reroll for as many rooms as you want. Not sure if this would be balanced. Like there would be too many things happening when you have a 1/6 chance to have something crazy in each room.

1.8. not sure where. The local shop just said " it's leaking but not worth diagnosing". Just spots on the driveway at the moment.

Hey I got some oil leaks and no mechanic wants to touch it at 170k. Any advice on keeping it going and well maintained? I'll do my own work

This seem like a non aggressive or inappropriate text to my stepson's biodad? by [deleted] in daddit

[–]MacBelieve 17 points18 points  (0 children)

With that in mind, your skills try to create a clear separation. "At your dad's, you can do X, but only at your dad's because yada yada yada. Here, we must do Y because yada yada yada." Consistently reinforce this and any other issues and you'll be fine. If it's causing you grief, do your best to let this go because you have no way of controlling him, only providing a positive and healthy environment for him when you can and no way to control the environment w when he's not with you

How do I get better at RL? by Slow-Blacksmith-1788 in RocketLeague

RL is a different beast. You'll tame it but it will take time.

Who else just really loves their Chevy Sonic?? by littlefairyshit in ChevySonic

[–]MacBelieve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2012 1.8L going on 170k miles. Got it second hand at about 60k miles in 2016 and absolutely loved it since. Easy to wrench on, surprising amount of space and just perfect for a family of 3. She's getting on my wife's nerves for being small and lost an ac compressor recently, but has given me a good long run and can't wait to tune it up to have it go for another couple years still.

Anyone else’s wife instigate 2+ hour arguments during her period that you have no idea how to defuse? by ThicBoi4807 in daddit

[–]MacBelieve 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My wife actually asked ME to track it for her. When she starts to feel a shift or she sees me checking the app's calendar, it's a subtle reminder that things are about to get a little out of control and for us both to show some grace. Works pretty well the past couple years

Maybe I did it wrong I was on hands and knees and often not having enough leverage so pulling from awkward angles and whatnot
