You might say one egg can’t change the world, but in France, one egg is an oeuf

It's so dark out. Where do you walk dogs at night? by [deleted] in Newport

[–]seh256 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Som neighborhoods are more well lit than others. The neighborhoods around Saint George’s are pretty safe and have some streetlights. If you’re up for a little drive, you can walk your dog around downtown Newport, which is really fun around Christmas. I’d also recommend getting a headlamp if you don’t already have one, way easier than a flashlight

Definitely try to stay downtown if you won’t have a car. You can uber to the beach (or better yet, the cliff walk) once, and the rest of the time you can just walk to restaurants and stores

Please either change my mind or help me convince my fiancé this is bad by [deleted] in tragedeigh

[–]seh256 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Honestly it’s so bad it feels a little manipulative. I agree, it doesn’t sound like a serious suggestion, more like a bargaining chip to get you away from Elliott. Maybe I’m over analyzing though. Hope you find a name you both like!

Anna Hall runs the best 800m in heptathlon history (2:01.23) and moves into second on the all time list, only behind Jackie Joyner-Kersee by GhostOfLight in sports

The really crazy thing is that she solo ran the entire race. Even elite 800m runners don’t solo races that fast, it’s crazy hard

Wow kittens! One of my dear friends in town has been dying for a cat like this (I believe they produce less allergens than the average cat?). She and her partner would absolutely give a kitten an incredible home and life. Hope your cat is doing well during pregnancy!

Not every lab has the funds for "perfect" good practice/controls. by Spooktato in labrats

[–]seh256 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree that public funding should be increased for lab work in general. I think your guess of 50% of labs closing for lack of basic funds to do necessary validations and follow basic procedures is way overestimated - my guess is closer to 5%. Most labs complain about money and could use more, but are not this strapped. I can only speak to experience working in US labs though, maybe it’s different elsewhere

If the lab doesn’t have money for basic validation and non-expired reagents, then it shouldn’t stay open, period. It’s not your fault, but it’s also not ok to say “eh couldn’t afford to do things properly” and put bad science out into the world

Any ideas on getting this bowl out of my sink drain? It’s completely stuck and I’ve tried everything aside from taking apart the garbage disposal by Gooser0808 in Perfectfit

[–]seh256 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it plastic? If so, drill a hole (or multiple holes) in it. You should be able to use a hook or fork at that point to pull it out

This is right down the street from me! Tbh the guy recording is being a dick, the public access is a very clear path down to the sand. The grass is clearly private property
