  • Bad guys who aren't misunderstood but aren't bad. They occupy a niche mindspace in which they have a genuine and noble goal but their goal is mutually exclusive with the good guy's goals (the Shadowlord from Nier Gestalt)

    Then, on the flip side, bad guys who know that they're bad and revel in it (Jack Horner from Puss in Boots)

    Good guys who are good leaders. They have no superhuman abilities but their power is to bring out the best in others. They don't beat the bad guys through sheer strength or being inspired by the power of friendship (which IMO is just the same thing), but they do so by strategically playing to people's strengths (Senku from Dr. Stone)

  • Ok but that one at least has a reasonable explanation. The temp control on the edges aren't as good as in the center, so it's more prone to messing up.

    Have you ever tried using a qPCR machine? That shit is actual black magic and you just have to hope that the spirits are feeling merciful that day

  • The person being downvoted is the mod of c/conservative. I'm guessing this is a political maneuver to bury his posts/bully him off lemmy

  • I'm on board with spending federal funds on crypto. Cryptosporidium parvum that is

  • On the flip side:

    nooo you can't just wash your hands I have to spread to other hosts otherwise I'll die

    haha water goes brrr

  • In organic chemistry, there's a concept called delocalized pi orbitals. The exact reason why it works is complicated and outside the scope of organic chemistry, so I'm not sure if I can really explain it anyways. But the takeaway is that when you see a double bond, single bond, double bond pattern, that generally indicates that the bonds are actually being shared across the entire motif. ie, it's not really a double bond, it's more like... a 1.5-bond.

    Having the bonds be shared across multiple atoms gives that region of the molecule special properties, the primary of which is that it tends to be really stable. The reason for that is that any disruption toward that region (eg, adding an electron) gets distributed across the motif, so that each atom is only minorly disturbed.

    And the bigger the motif is, the more stable the region is because it's able to distribute disturbances better.

    Benzene (the hexagon motif circled) is made exclusively of this double bond, single bond, double bond motif. And as a result, it's well known for being extremely difficult to modify or destroy. You really have to jump through hoops to do any sort of organic chemistry with benzenes. The motif circled in testosterone still has delocalized pi orbitals, but it's not as extensive as a benzene, and so it's less stable

  • To summarize: paper got published last year that had this as a figure. It got widely ridiculed because there's no way that this figure passed peer review. Turns out the reviewers did point it out but the editor ignored it

  • It's very simple:

    1. Learn about primer design
    2. Forget primer design
    3. Use a primer designer online
    4. ???
    5. Profit Primer fails
    6. Cry
  • Acetone evaporates quickly. You just let it sit for a minute and it'll dispose of itself

  • You know how there's a ton of subreddits on Reddit that do the exact same thing and like literally all them except 1 or 2 are dead?

    Yeah, so that's what's going on here. Those communities just simply haven't been around for long enough to completely die out yet. Just go for the top 1 or 2 communities that have the most subscribers and/or most activity

  • That's a really interesting insight. So in other words, when they say that they're the party of law and order, they literally mean that they want authoritarianism

  • I'd say upgrade GPU. Buying a GPU is awful but it's by far the most directly responsible for gaming performance. I'd probably look for an RX 7600 or RTX 4060. Both of them should be around 300 dollars. Also be aware that games are starting to use more VRAM. Both of my recommendations above have 8 GB of VRAM, and that's already not enough for some games. If you have the extra money, it'll certainly be a good idea to spend a bit more to get a 16 GB card (or at minimum, a 12 GB card). Your best options there would probably be RX 7600XT or RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB. Both of those cards should be around the 400 dollar range.

    Second priority would be upgrading your storage drives to SSD. Upgrading to SSD's should help with general snappiness, and plus they shouldn't be that expensive at this time. That should be around 100 dollars for 1 TB of SSD, or 50 dollars for 500 GB.

    3rd priority is CPU. It's fine, but you might gett CPU bottlenecked in certain scenarios (especially after getting a GPU upgrade). An R5 5600 would be a slot-in upgrade, so you can keep using your other parts. Last I checked (which admittedly was a while back), they're a pretty good deal, at around 120 dollars.

    4th priority is RAM. I'd actually say 16 GB RAM is fine for now, but RAM (and especially DDR4 RAM) is super cheap so you might as well upgrade your RAM if you've got the money.

  • Antimeme, not BHJ. BHJ involves reinterpreting a meme into something that is not relevant to either the intended meme format or the source material. Basically, intentionally missing the point of the meme

    For instance, a BHJ here might say something like "I'm sad that I ran out of money right before I finished my Terminator costume"

  • The constitution also didn't say "the president shall give a shit about the law"

    Rookie mistake, IMO

  • If a donut were to have a center of mass, would the center of mass be like this or like this?

  • The paper fan, it's the most annoying/fun because it's so easy to stunlock other people

  • It's not a misunderstanding. It's well known that it's easier to get relevant jobs in certain science fields than others.

    Psychology is one of the hardest science fields to get a job in, and it's also one of the most popular undergraduate majors. Put the 2 together and the end result is that the vast majority of psychology majors end up being unable to find a job in psychology.

  • Here, let me fill it out:

    low IQ: psychologists don't know anything

    average IQ: psychologists don't know anything

    high IQ: psychologists don't know anything
