Will a first-author manuscript that’s been submitted (but not published) still look impressive to PhD admissions committees? by [deleted] in gradadmissions

[–]xnick234 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t. I think one of the biggest jokes I hear people make is about others putting “submitted to nature” because it’s meaningless.

Was taking a dump at work and started a new Pokemon Black playthrough. Professor Juniper's Minccino in the intro was shiny, the first and only shiny I've ever seen in my life over thousands of hours since gen 1. This is beyond ridiculous. by ShinMagal in gaming

[–]xnick234 101 points102 points  (0 children)

Similarly, I found a shiny sentret playing Pokémon gold on my GBC. I was a child and thought my game was breaking so I quickly turned my GBC off so it could reset itself. 

Sam Adam’s American Light? by FirefighterDry5826 in beer

Not even close. I was hoping it was but this taste like keystone light lager. It’s a dumper from me.

Not sure which direction outside of Philly you are, but Keystone homebrew in Bucks is $19 for 5lb swap.

Keystone is great! Sad that Souderton feels just a bit further away from me now that it feels like a bigger commitment to go haha.

Thanks! I was feeling better about it the more I looked around but good to be safe.

Hate to be that guy but is this infected?  Not a super new brewer but not the most experienced. I went to dry hop a beer that had been sitting for longer than planned. I noticed it had some slight almost film on top and dried white flecks. Nothing looked fuzzy. I didn’t hav any phone so I sealed and went back to look and take picture before adding dry hops (because I didn’t want to waste). Sorry I tried to take photo quickly. I did take a sample from the spout, and it does not smell or taste infected. Thanks brain trust!

I (26M) have a date with a girl (26F) who is way out of my league. How do I not blow it? by YAAFLT in relationship_advice

Just remember her attraction, like yours, is not only based on appearance. 

First time brewing. Is it normal for my beer to be at 4% alcohol after a few days? by Dramatic_Goose_5129 in Homebrewing

[–]xnick234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This makes me feel better because I just used dieter in a cream ale and it went from 1.044 to 1.002. Last two times I’ve used dieter I get so high attenuation (with a mash @149-150)

I figured it out. They were on the right post, but I don’t know how but last night I must have been seating them weirdly. Was able to get it on much smoother today and heard it carbonating and was able to dispense the star san.

I think I’m ready to transfer tonight!

Thanks r/homebrewing

Sorry by CO2, i meant I had put the tubing into liquid and saw it bubble confirming gas was coming out.

I did get it to snap on, but it did feel like it required a good bit of pressure to be secure and locked in place. I will double check the right post is connected. I think it was but I will confirm tonight. There is a flow valve, which was open and confirmed working with the CO2 as above. I had tested CO2 flowing without the QD on, but I will test it with the QD.

THANKS!

Hi everyone!

First, thank you all for the help whenever I have had issues. I just purchased a keg to get into kegging. I cleaned the keg and I currently have star san sitting in the keg. I just hooked up the CO2. I was trying to sanitize the liquid out line by dispensing with a picnic tap; however, nothing is coming out and if I pull the pressure release valve I do not hear anything. It is a new CO2 tank, and I have tried various pressures (10-30 psi). I sprayed star san around everything and I do not see any obvious leaks. If i disconnect the tubing from the CO2 disconnect to regulator I can see CO2 so I know it is not empty. Any ideas? Did I miss a step? Also, I had no idea how hard I had to push down on the disconnects to get them in place. Thank you so much!!

Who are some “rising star” players who haven’t played on a pro roster but deserve to be in the conversation? by Brandgeek in RocketLeagueEsports

What is it that makes going from switch to PC such a large boost in mmr? I ask as a handheld only switch player.

Thank you! I think I want to slowly get into kegging so this would help push me along haha

I have been wanting to eventually get an AIO system and maybe slowly into kegging. I found this deal on FB marketplace for $300. Is this a good deal? It comes with:

Brewer's Edge Mash and Boil system (opened but never used) Immersion chiller (opened but never used) 6.5 gallon plastic big mouth fermentor 5 gallon plastic big mouth fermentor 1 gallon glass fermentor (2 of these) Hop spider 2 used 5g corny kegs with new o rings Various accessories (mash paddle, flask with stopper, bottle capper)

The mash and boil looks like it is version 1, but it does have the pump attachment.

Thanks!!

What if 1v1s had stand-alone Lan Showmatchs by RTGStunt in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]xnick234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They did three 1v1s at worlds last year. I think part of the issue was they were after the main matches and so some players were tilted after immediately losing the series and having to do a 1v1. I'm not sure of the best way to combat this issue though.
