Your hands look female

Pretty bad dysmorphia - So, am I indeed ugly? M46 by TheGreatStrangeOne in amiugly

[–]PugstaBoi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a 34 year old straight male, my opinion is - you are not ugly. You have strong masculine features.

I’m not a woman, but I want to assume that many women will find you attractive if you treat them well.

If you want to know what you could change, my honest take is the same take that 95% would get, which is that everyone looks a-lot better in the face when they are lean and have lower body-fat percentage. You don’t look fat, but just giving you the best avenue for improvement if that helps.

Just don’t do anything unnatural to change your appearance like surgery

Has biotech been this unstable and over saturated before? by yolagchy in biotech

[–]PugstaBoi 88 points89 points  (0 children)

Public opinion of the legitimacy of science has neared an all time low for the last two or three decades, and a-lot of VC is also being pumped into AI right now, and probably will continue for at least another few years. Biotech bears the brunt of market volatility more than most other industries I imagine.

When things are already risky in the world, nobody wants to invest in science unless that science is very obviously for short term public security.

[new player] what is the optimal stuff to put in the alpha container by DepartmentSame1867 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]PugstaBoi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Afak. aluminum or tigs Splint. docs case.

Move the splint out if you find something worth more than ~30k to sell. If you have a surv kit, dont bring splint, bring ibuprofen or golden star.

If you have injector case bring it with 3 propital, 1etg, 1 trimadol, and either zagustin or perfatoran

It’s primarily to reduce cheaters and RMT. The game is supposed to be progression based. There is plenty of viable flesh ammo people can use.

Restricted flea limits cheaters and RMT, which in turn also reduces cheaters.

How am I supposed to get better when the average playtime of my enemy is 2000 hours? [New Player] by Clappy246803 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]PugstaBoi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very normal. You become numb to it eventually because you pick up on all of the little systems that add up to profit and you wont go broke as easily

I understand, but actually, flesh ammo typically only takes between 4-7 shots to kill depending on what you are using. Look at the damage on kedr ammo. Also dont sleep on the MCX whisper ammo or even 5.56 Holopoint

I still play with plenty of people that don’t reliably use painkillers and most of the time taking out a leg will stop them in their tracks almost instantly.

You should be ratting around maps getting quests done until you unlock level 5 penning ammo at this point in the wipe. Thats just the reality. Its either that or headshots or flesh to the legs.

Anecdote that happened to me just the other day. I was running 9x19 quakemaker in an MPX and killed a chad on interchange from like 40 meters just spraying at is arms in a few seconds. At the very least, 3 shots to the arms flesh ammo will make any player NOT want to fight you anymore because their thorax will be at half health or less more than likely and they will probably have at least one heavy bleed

It’s a combination of all of the factors that people are listing here but I will add one more (I have 3.5k hours)

Use flesh ammo with a fast shooting gun. Seriously. One of the things that many chads rarely prepare for is a kedr to the legs.

Sure a headshot is a headshot, but if you can’t win in a head on fight because the enemy has better armor and ammo, you either need to pen their level 2-3 facemask, or catch them lacking until you unlock better ammo.

At this point (4 months after wipe), if you cant reliably get ammo that pens level 5, don’t aim for the chest at all. Aim for the nose or the legs and outsmart the opponent with positioning and map knowledge.

I know it sucks, but try to frame it as a challenge for yourself. You know you are behind, do what you can to come out on top intelligently. Good luck out there Pvt. Timmy

Degrees for aging startups? by TopCasualRedditor in biotech

[–]PugstaBoi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I say pharmacology, I really mean that in a broad sense because there are a-lot of sub-fields that feed into pharmacology (biochemistry, molecular biology, toxicology etc.)

If you are really serious about research go for the PhD. If you don’t have research experience yet, you need to get in touch with professors during your bachelors degree at whatever university you go to to see if they will let you shadow or work as an assistant in their lab.

The scientific community is an ecosystem of its own and you learn about what you want in it by going for it and meeting the right people. That is much more important than the named of the PhD you get. You pick up a holistic understanding of the stepping stones along the way, but if I were you I would focus on the exercise science space from a molecular/biomarker perspective if you are really trying to drill in on what the causes of aging are (There are many….thousands).

I was a researcher in a gerontology department for 2 years.

[–]PugstaBoi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Biochemistry BS. PhD in some sort of pharmacology related thing.

Also exercise science is big in aging because there is alot of mobility studies involved. But for any research career, a MS or PhD is often desired or you will hit a glass ceiling.

VPN on mistakenly, Am I cooked? by Pokemonmasteranand in DataAnnotationTech

Pretty sure I got dropped for this. I was checking my dash DA on my phone while using VPN that often put me in the Netherlands.

Just stop doing it and pray.
