Not Not Good Gaming; Many functional groups are quite sensitive to UV though...

[@mememem]

Rural areas virtually always have lower rates of crime than urban areas.

[@KuraIthys]

Not really. Though there is some variance, crime rates are pretty much proportional to population. If there's 30 robberies per 100,000 people per week, then in a city of 1 million, that means 300 people are getting robbed a week. If you're talking about a town of 500, or even a rural area with far les than that... Well, let's say you have 10 robberies in that town in a year... How much crime is this, proportionally speaking? Well, 500 people, 10 crime in 52 weeks... 10/52 crimes per week, 500 / 100,000 people.... ~ 0.192 / 0.005 that's 38.5 crimes a week per 100,000 people, which is higher than the crime rate in the city. That's a contrived example of course, but if you put enough people together it might seem like there's lots of crime, but that's only because there's lots of people. For the amount of people there are, crime rates are typically quite consistent, and can even tend to be slightly higher in rural areas than in cities, in general. Crime rates do vary enormously by region though, irrespective of whether you're talking about cities or rural areas. Even different parts of the same city can have vastly different crime rates though...

[@IndomitablegamingYT]

why do you lowkey look like an Asian Elon musk?

[@ace-kz9id]

@miyuki yup and i cant unsee him as that now

[@TPepeProductions]

Dr: Asian Elon Musk does not exist. He cannot hurt you Asian Elon Musk: Today, I'm going to show you how to turn Asprin into candy...

NileRed talks a bit like Elon when looking at the camera too...

[@zach7482]

Nah, Nile's leagues above Elon. He doesn't exploit workers, and act like an old man trying to be hip. And Nile is actually smart.

I think this has been asked before, but do you plan on creating a video/series on creating your own home lab setup?

[@NileRed]

Probably not. It is a huge mess :)

[@tommblob6432]

Oh well, thanks for the quick reply!

[@george.4474]

NileRed Pleaso do it!

Cut up 2L bottles for funnels, Disposable cups/jars for beakers, cottonballs/coffee filters for filters, eyedropper/baster for separation, temperature controlled stovetop instead of a hotplate(use aluminium foil and parchment paper to protect glass), Computer PSU with a reverse biased diode grounding the purple/grey wire for a power supply, older style hard disc drive platters for inert anodes(worth spending $40 on the real thing though, titanium oxide contamination is infinitely easier to deal with than aluminium compounds). Or just buy an organic chemistry set, vacuum filter, and hotplate from a Hong Kong ebay seller(more reliable shipping than Chinese sellers), all for less than a university course credit fee.

Lemtil Don't forget the dollar store. It's a treasure trove for chemistry on the cheap. =D

2 things nile always does since years: 1. Terrible yield for everything(with various reasons[we lied about our starting amount to go to expected yield during training - but it never was that off]) 2. Somethin is extremly stron smelling/tasting "its kinda okay and wears off fast"(see the island vid for reference)
