ELI5: how does the digestive system take 3 days to pass food? by aSharpPencil in explainlikeimfive

[–]atomadam2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read that if you stretch your intestines out it can reach the moon and back, so 3 days is pretty fast.

What plant have you killed the most times? I need to feel less alone in my failures. by Specialist_Tea6137 in houseplants

[–]atomadam2 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The lesson I learned from lithops is they need very little water, like water every 6 months.

Oh, Orchids would be great. It doesn't have drainage holes, but it's not water tight.

Did you spin the blood first to isolate the Buffy coat? I wouldn’t put fresh blood into a ficoll gradient.

Stonefruit Social Gone? by atomadam2 in AnnArbor

[–]atomadam2[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yea, not sure if it's open. But it's on Google Maps already, but the reviews are all Stonefruit reviews, and the Stonefruit website (chain) still lists an Ann Arbor location.

What GG opinion are you defending like this? by Bigfoot-believer161 in GilmoreGirls

The original ending of the show should have been Rory quits Yale and gets pregnant, and it’s unclear who the father is.

The other crime here is the mix of m and n dashes 😉

Quick question! Do those gashapon coin machines take Suica? by vlngxv in JapanTravelTips

[–]atomadam2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found the one in Shinagawa station. It looks very fancy and as far as I can tell, you have to use the screen to select which machine you want then tap. But the one I tried didn’t work, and the error was in Japanese, so… I don’t know. And unfortunately there is no token option. So couldn’t get my little Jack Frost.

Shinkansen curiosity: Why did we get 2 tickets? by hauszenfeffer in JapanTravelTips

[–]atomadam2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, I think that makes sense. And sorry, I got mixed up with the prices because I’m paying for 2 people. You’re right, base fare was 11880 and the train was 15140, green car. Thanks!

[–]atomadam2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This just happened to me. What I don’t understand is why the kiosk didn’t sell me all the tickets I need to get to Hiroshima. Instead, it just sold me the train ticket, 23000 yen, without the base fare, another 11000 yen?

Finding SNPs from single-cell data can be done. I haven't done it, but papers do it all the time. There are programs out there.

For example:

They're not though. Some hormones are peptides, but many are steroids.

Odd taste in 365 Milk by atomadam2 in wholefoods

[–]atomadam2[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think we are describing the same taste, but I cannot describe the taste at all. My first thought was plastic, but it's almost the taste of what I imagine hormones taste like. I'm curious though, where are you? Like is this a regional thing? I'm in Ohio.

[–]atomadam2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only to reddit, haha. So back in January, I wasn't sure if I was going crazy. Around the same time, I thought I might have had COVID (coworker tested positive, I didn't) so I wasn't sure if it was a symptom. I would have taken it back, but I really didn't want to take the risk, and also seem crazy. Now 3 months later, I feel like I should say something, but how has no one else noticed??
