Would love to try DMT but I can't be bothered with *snip* really (and obviously can't be bothered to extract it myself) so maybe I don't want it enough? heh.

If I was given some or offered some to buy off a mate I would certainly give it a bash. I tried DPT once and didn't quite 'lift off' then there wasn't any left so couldn't try again :( It was cool though, very interesting head space.

I want to leave the fucking planet when I try DMT smoked, finally :D

One day!

Going off on pharmacology tangent was more about educating myself out of my own drug problems than anything else, I think, but after a few years of fascination with it I'm not sure if I should just be happy that I managed to do that rather than attempt to throw away 15/16 years of what I was doing with my life prior to that. It's a decision I can make slowly anyway in the next year or so, but I'm past the age where choices like that aren't critical and can't afford to make any mistakes.

right, enough moaning, fucksake.

You do coding of some sort, IIRC?

Honest, guv', those skills will be seen as feckin golden in most areas of science :) In fact, for many PhDs the students will be spending a good chunk of time learning to code (as at UG level they are rarely or barely taught - well, outside the obvious suspects of comp sci, maths, physics etc). F'instance, I know in Phys Chem they'll tend to force the PhuDs to learn C++ etc (well, might not be that language now - but was the case many moons ago, lol).

There was an ask-slashdot feature on that topic ("research programmers") last week:


Scientific Research Positions For Programmers? http://ask.slashdot.org/story/13/07/17/029215/ask-slashdot-scientific-research-positions-for-programmers

IMO a couple yrs of uni ain't so bad a price to pay for a ticket to a lifetime of post-doc research.

you mean a life of fuckin shite contracts, shite pay for the skills you have, teaching, marking, admin, more teaching and marking, so much that you can't do any research, getting bollocked for not doing research despite a huge teaching load, being told the research you've done, in a multidisciplinary field, and published in an area outside the department you reside in, does not count, as its not 'their subject,' living with the constant threat your research group will be dissolved....? sadly, you can't be on a post doc fellowship forever, and this is what awaits after if you get lucky. hence a lot of phd students leaving academia....

this depends- a lot of experimentalists I know do no coding whatsoever, ditto the theorists come to think of it... but it is the case that there are a lot of areas where those skills are needed. a lot of physics journals still don't trust numerical results though, so ideally you need to team up with a mathematician.
 
Phew, Ceres seems to have sorted it himself. Saving me the arduous task.

In good news I'm typing this on my new laptop! managed (with thanks to marmz) to get Win7 installed, and avg, and firefox.

You're a surprise tech god. I can see this whole, 'I don't know computers schtick', has just been a ruse so you can pass all the EADD tech problems/queries over to knock, while you keep a 100% unwavering focus on the more pressing EADD fundamentals, ie: merging posts.

EVERYTHING makes sense now.

Wicked isnt it. i love trippy artwork like that
In before the alex grey version

(i liked it tho!)
 
Alex grey version of the face marmz? post it up

feeling pretty nice off this vallie and booze, kinda mesmerizing. im such a lightweight with vallies. although not as bad as some people i know, few vallies n they conk right out, i like the nice bliss before the sleepyness kicks in
 
Solaris the original ? [edit] or remake? (I love both)

[edit]
Your wife's taste sounds classy, you should trust it. I love die hard but switched the latest one off due to utter boredom a coupla days ago.

back later EADD folks <3

(Solaris OST is awesome btw)
