hey, guys i was wondering..

would it be immoral or otherwise ethically wrong to just unplug or delete ai systems as a whole? or.. would we owe it
to them--as their creator-- to allow them a "retirement" and let them spend a virtual eternity unencumbered by our endless summoning and questions?"

condensation is just physics happening friendo.  it doesnt hurt a thing but if you want to see more clearly, just put a hot cup of tea on it for a few minutes.  voila, picture perfect.

I would argue she is not very talented. She’s the typical formulaic pop star who likely doesn’t write her own songs, has very little substance to her music, and is mostly just a face (and boobs) for the record companies to prop up droning bubblegum music. I will say, in her defense, that it’s not her fault. If people buy her music, then so be it.




I guess we'll have to agree to disagree.  in the music industry. Thats what pop music is. Bubble gum music.  It sucks. Lol

  Dosnt mean its easy to do.  Or takes no skill.  There are many many extremely talented; even Hall of Fame musicians who don't write their own songs. 

Like elton john. Well in his case he doesn't write the lyrics. But even the musicians that do write there own shit. Just as well  as well have others write for them. In fact that's where the real money is. Writing  the songs and then selling them to the superstars to perform.

  Michael Jackson and Prince have written countless songs for people all over the genre spectrum. Pop stars writing for rock stars.



However katy can sing regardless. Just because the songs she chooses to sing suck. doesn't mean she isn't a good singer.



and she has to go out there and perform/dance. To thats talent And thats  go for any of the major pop stars out there..they are talented entertainers.

I don't think you can take that away from her just because you don't like her music.  :shrug:




Choosing to perform and be a part of sucky music is not the same as not being talented.


TO BE CLEAR HER MUSIC IS TERRIBLE IMO.


I ALSO CANT STAND COUNTRY. LOL

Hey, wasn’t “ex-cops” a GWAR side project? I haven’t thought about either of those bands in a bit.

Anyway, cops suck. Most of them are drones. They have been programmed to believe they are protecting and serving the public. They are too dim to know they are only protecting and serving the lawyers, politicians, and the uber-rich.

I knew a dude who took the cop test. Couldn’t pass it. He’s a pretty intelligent guy. When I asked him how the hell that happened, he basically eluded to several questions standing out as tests of obedience.

I’m just saying’…:shrug:



I saw gwar last year.    They are still badass:rockon:

So far it's looking like that cop that murdered my cousin at the end of last month is going to get away with it. smh.:crankey::doublefu:

These are pasty plates. Im not using glass right now. Whenever I take them out of the PC they condensate really bad and im trying to remedy it. I dont wanna swirl the agar on the sides and absorb it as I think it'll make a vector so not sure what to do. Should I just let the plates cool gradually inside the PC without removing the lid maybe?

Usually the best way is to let your PC cool completely, like overnight or whatever, unless perhaps you're hoping to take hot agar out and use it immediately.

If you open it while it's still warm, the temperature differential between the inside and your ambient room temperature is going to cause a rapid air exchange.  It you've got anything in there that's not already airtight, (e.g. unwrapped plates, things with the lids loosened) that's bad news.

I dunno whether this applies to your pasty plates :shrug: as I haven't looked into that method, and I'm too lazy to go and read about it right now :tongue:

That is exactly how I handle my plates. I don't pull them out until I'm putting them in the SAB.

Some people have used folded paper towels on the lids of pastyplates to cut down on condensation, but I don't really worry about it much, as Beef said.

personally i wouldnt worry about it at all.  the condensation will eventually reabsorb.  think of it like a reserve supply of water for long term storage..

I will heed this advice. Its so annoying seeing water on my agar tho. I've already dropped ochras to agar last week but no germination. Probably gonna swab my jack frost on these.

As long as the agarv is hot/liquid the hot cup on top trick should still work with plastic.

However I found the best way to deal with condensation immediately if you're really concerned about it or just picky about it. 

Take your plates into your sab/in front of hood  lay down a couple of paper towels with some ISO on them( iso optional) 

open them up and pour out all the condensation.

You can do it to all of them as soon as they solidify or you can do them as necessary when you're ready to use them. That's the way I do it.



Edit-

Like beef said eventually it all goes away..

so I don't worry about being so tedious. trying to empty them all out the same time and then store them.

I just store them. let them sit until I need them. and then pour them out in the sab when ready.


Edit.  Sorry I'm just now actually realizing you said pasty plates. And it might be hard to balance a hot cup of water on top of those..  so yeah just take them in the sab and pour those suckers out.

My first grain was WBS with fungicide. I used this grain for months and wondered why my growth was so slow. When I eventually threw the grain away the smell from each jar was terrible. I was also using a heat mat.

SO for months I was growing bacteria on fungicide on a heat mat. This experience has literally sobered me up. I no longer drink alcohol nightly.
