carbon tet will destroy your liver, and it's also a dogshit solvent. hexane is a replacement in some applications. if you need a better solvent, use toluene

thunderous speed in the range of minutes per residue (not every aminoacid can be used and what they're printing is dna, not proteins so multiply it 3x. they're encoding 3 bits per aminoacid, but there's overhead, error correction and structural requirements that make data density lower than 1 bit per nucleobase)

could be, there was more of these weird things that i had to do that i don't remember already because motherboard of that one cracked like three years ago. i also remember that stock driver for tplink dongle was limited and the actual useful one had to be gotten from github

to get wifi working properly in the first place i had to find a missing binary that wasn't packaged in any normal way and was only hosted on some dudes github so my expectations were low already. it got a lot better over the years tbh

lmde on a seven year old laptop five years ago, i was already accustomed to wifi on linux being dogshit. energy management was even worse and for some time hibernation was not a thing

Can’t you just disable sleep on close?

i could, but closing the lid turned off radios (wifi + bt) at some low level in a way that i haven't figured out

speaking of oracle, they recently loaded up on debt and got into deals that are all but impossible to fulfill, and in a couple of years their survival will depend on openai making profit. (not revenue) put a pin in it and come back to that in a year or three

where i live it's a part of building code that hot water has to be hot enough that legionella doesn't survive in it. depending on the place it might be different and whether building is up to code is a separate thing entirely

legionella dies after 2min at 60C tho

depends on your buildings construction, if you have steel piping then it should be fine as long as you boil it. if it's chlorinated then it shouldn't even matter too hard
