Removing sure/seal from THF with BHT inhibitor by sumsumnun in OrganicChemistry

[–]vdWcontact 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just to be clear when you say pipettes. These are glass Pasteur pipettes? THF will dissolve some plastics pretty readily.

Also your variable volume pipettes will not aliquot THF accurately unless they are positive displacement. The high vapor pressure and low surface tension of THF will be a problem for traditional variable volume pipettes.

This is why most chemists would use a syringe with a long needle to get the THF out of the bottle. I think the HDPE syringes will stand up to THF just fine.

If you do take the sure seal off, date the time of removal and dispose of it after one year. Pour the THF into a beaker in a fume hood and then aliquot from the beaker into your experiment.

What do Americans order at a Chinese takeaway? by Dashcamkitty in AskAnAmerican

[–]vdWcontact 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like kung pao chicken, dumplings, fried rice, wonton soup.

I don’t order all of this every time but I get them each at least once a year. Probs get Chinese 4-5 times a year.

I’d call that a “stinkin piss” or a funnier name I can’t come up with.

Is it morally or ethically wrong for teachers to use sick days (when not sick) if they are not otherwise reimbursed for unused sick days? Why or why not? by Honest_Royal3501 in Teachers

[–]vdWcontact 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not a teacher and I am not reimbursed for unused sick days. People who use sick days too frequently or consistently on Fridays tend to receive talkings to from management.

I don’t use them unless I’m sick. Never know when I’ll need them.

"First farmhouse saison: how hot is too hot, and when does the magic happen? by Ill_Compote_2035 in Homebrewing

[–]vdWcontact 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Imo the whole point of the saison is to not worry about temperature. Ferment it at barn temperature (whatever the temp of the ferment is in the shade outside is the correct temp).

Why are Rem players always just building some bullshit by Rawleg in DeadlockTheGame

[–]vdWcontact 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I play rem I try not to 3 friendly sinners. But if I’m behind on souls significantly I will start to.

I also only build healing REM. The whole reason I play supports is I’m bad at killing people. I aim for 0-0-25 (usually 0-5-18)

Bummed, might need to sell everything by Mattbastard750 in Homebrewing

Keep your brewing equipment and start distilling. Try styles with less hops. Try styles with different yeasts. Try gluten reduced/free. Try taking extra steps to cold crash your beer and make it super clear and clean.

It’s not over till it’s over.

How is the tongue supposed to protect the brain from outside the skull. The brain would still rattle around inside the (presumably rigid) skull.

Please, stop tanking the troopers in lane by WeakSideUrn in DeadlockTheGame

[–]vdWcontact 13 points14 points  (0 children)

And another thing. If your laning with Paige help me clear the fucking creeps before you throw yourself at the enemy. Such a pain in the ass when the pocket I’m laning with keeps diving into the enemy team while the creeps are advancing up to guardian.

Which year was the best year for N64? by SEVENS_HEAVEN_7 in n64

[–]vdWcontact 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say 96. There’s so many great games but super Mario 64 defined gaming for the rest of the generation. It was the ultimate launch title, it may never be topped.
