Right. I actually like my job and I appreciate that is a rare occurrence these days. But I also like my private life. If I had a choice I still would spend more time on what I do in my private life than in my job, since right now the balance is still heavily on the job side (if we exclude sleeping since well, I don’t get the choice to do that at my job).

I think it is good you post these but also quite frankly, I’d never add something like that to my game library.

Not enough Limericks.

TIL, thanks! I agree that this is a fitting example then.

I’d be pretty certain that if any of these has “paused” its just because research reached its limits and is waiting for the next big development that enables it to continue.

Also “recombinant DNA experiments”??? What in the world is meant by that?

Woah finally a wireless keyboard with a big touchpad like the Microsoft one I am currently using. I had it for a long time, bought pre-pandemic but once it kicks the bucket I didn’t want to buy anything Microsoft anymore. But all other keyboards like this had miniscule touchpads (e.g. Logitech…).

This however looks very promising!

Sorry, was a bit busy yesterday. There was another provider above it, but not ticked. I moved it now to the top, so let’s see when I add the next movies.

Edit 2 days later: nope, it didn’t. So probably my folder structure to blame and I will consider adjusting that or stop complaining!

I’ll have a look at that, thanks!

Oh, that detail I missed. Thanks! No, I have relied always just on file names for that. Bit clunky having a folder each, I will see if I go through with that or not, otherwise I will stop complaining about the issue…

Thanks, I know about these but haven’t even thought about setting these up since I don’t torrent. Or are they usable without connecting it to torrenting?

To be fair, adding a movie per week is ok with the identify option. But I don’t understand how that works more reliably than the automatic detection. I mean the movies it misidentifies are not even in the manual identify selection when I supply the same info, e.g. name and date.

Guess you broke into the wrong God damn rec room, didn’t ya!

Thanks for your comment, I was about to scroll past but a shooter in this style is interesting for me!

Wonderful to see the drama continue. Cannot await the surely totally sane reaction of the Lutris dev to this.

But in general that’s what forks are for. Also great to see this in Codeberg.

For a button dashboard as you put it I once got OliveTin recommended, haven’t yet set it up though.

This is cool and disclaimer, I did not watch the whole video but was mostly interested in the quality control.

There is one big reason such a device is so expensive, as for just about every experiment you need complete confidence in its precision. So a commercial device is built to provide that. This might be “less important” in an academic setting where malfunction will just annoy the postdoc, but gets a bit more important in a commercial setting where money is on the line. I guess that is not the use case for this though.

I don’t see him do any proper QC though, showing colors looking relatively even and getting pretty gradients is nice, but there can still be considerable variation between plates or wells here that are not visible to the eye.

I haven’t done any proper calibration myself for a while now, but usually one would use a liquid that has some light absorption that can be measured in a plate reader. So you can get actual experimental numbers for the variation between wells but also plates.

And if he does that it would probably help a lot to compare it with the commercial device, how close is he to that standard of quality?

Pirated it long ago.
