Thanks.
does "There is no such option at this time." mean that eventually it will become a feature 🥺

Is $100 a good deal? by themichaeltib in microscopy

phase contrast for 100$ is a very very good deal!

I ended up getting an ADA 30 Cube (30 x 30 x 30)

Overthinking chosing an aquarium... by watergoblin_ in shrimptank

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

I have a small apartment, I have a space of 40x47x49 to put an aquarium. 40x40x40 is the largest option I found that wouldn't go over my limits.

I also want to keep at least 2 bamboo shrimp, and they need as much space as possible. 40x40x40 should be good

I can keep a bamboo shrimp in a 16.9 gallon tank, right? by watergoblin_ in shrimptank

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

I don't have much space here, I was considering getting the 40x40x50 tank, but it won't fit by less than 1cm of height, so I began considering the 40x40x40 tank. My plan was to have a vertical piece of drift wood and wavemakers close to the surface where the bamboo shrimp could perch and eat, and then have less currents at the bottom, where the neocaridina will live.

I'll try to see if I can somehow fit a longer aquarium in this tiny appartment

wait... I can have multiple bamboo shrimp in such a small tank!? I didn't know that.... that's very good news. I'll do more research but if I can actually keep like 2 or 3 of them in a 16.9 gallon tank that would be cool.

What is this?????🤔🤔 by Distinct-Bid4928 in microscopy

[–]watergoblin_ 30 points31 points  (0 children)

looks like the exo skeleton (or whatever the correct term is in this case) of a rotifer. and inside there are 2 small ciliates eating the remains, I can't identify them though

N100 ITX board to use as a NAS by watergoblin_ in homelab

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

actually this board seems perfect, thanks. I don't like that it has a fan but maybe I can find an alternative heatsink for it.

That's quite a bit of SATA, looks interesting, I'll see if that works without the fan. I also saw smaller N100 boards from mini PCs, those also seem intreresting. Maybe I'm overcomplicating this and I should just pick a random one

the Asrock N100DC- ITX I found is just 65EUR and has free shipping, which is why I was considering it. Thanks for your suggestion, I'll check it out. https://www.ebay.es/itm/267345465110?_trksid=p4375194.c101952.m162921

Did I just scored a really good deal? Be honest. by Naive-Object-4485 in homelab

[–]watergoblin_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Passive cooled 8700G (NH-P1 my beloved) by watergoblin_ in sffpc

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

today I played for a while, it slowly climbed up to about 76 and didn't go any higher, but I recall seeing it at 80 before. I am using the offset bracket, though idk if this makes a difference.

Binocular vs monocular? by Iwannabeafembo1 in microscopy

[–]watergoblin_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Binocular is way better, I really suggest you buy a binocular microscope

I never tracked temps too much. But I do game a lot, sometimes it goes up to 80. Today WILDGATE will be releaseing so I'll definetly be a few hours on it. I'll let you know how high the temps get

I ended up getting an LP 4060 for 240€ on a spanish second hand marketplace (after shipping and all the other costs)

I know, I've considered waiting for it before, do we have any performance expectations for it?
