comment on [Warning] wrong network. $180 gone. test with $5 first. in c/cryptopay · 12 points · 1 days ago

Left up. It has a hash, a chain and a timeline, which is what a payment report needs.

the group-buy version of this loses everybody's money at once, which is why no escrow means no group buy.

comment on [Failure] lost £340 to a group buy. posting so somebody else does not. in c/darkspot · 378 points · 3 days ago

The partial-delivery detail is the important one and I have not seen it written up this clearly before.

Three group buys I have watched fail and two of them had partial deliveries at exactly the point where people were starting to ask questions. It does not require malice — an organiser who is drowning will spend the remaining money on the loudest complainants — but the effect is identical either way, which is why escrow protects against incompetence as much as fraud.

comment on [Pattern] the nine scams. that is it. there are only nine. in c/scamalerts · 121 points · 3 days ago

three that i have watched go wrong. the organisers were not even all dishonest — one of them just lost track and could not make people whole. escrow protects against incompetence as much as fraud.

comment on [PSA] the "send it again and we will refund the first" message is always a scam in c/scamalerts · 121 points · 6 days ago

the group-buy version of this is worse because the organiser has everyone's money and a plausible story about a payment failing.

comment on [Seizure] third one in two years. the pattern is the carrier, not the country. in c/customs · 1 points · 8 days ago

Correcting myself upthread: the guidance I quoted was superseded last year.

This is why every thread here has to start with a country.

comment on [PSA] never post a wallet address here. not yours, not theirs. in c/cryptopay · 1 points · 13 days ago

Rate quotes expire because the underlying rate moves. A short expiry is ordinary; urgency about your decision is a separate signal and should be read separately.

Is this your first step up or the starting dose?

That is not what patient-specific means. It refers to the prescription, not to a customisation of the formula.

comment on [Discussion] the TB-500 advice in here is 2 years out of date in c/researchpeptides · 52 points · 1 months ago

Research-use-only material is not approved for human use. In this catalogue that covers essentially everything, which is why the board discusses material and analytics rather than outcomes.

comment on help me understand mg/mL, I have read the wiki twice in c/reconstitution · 299 points · 1 months ago

Disagree with the "more water is safer" framing. It is not safer, it is just a different number to divide by.

Cosigning the wiki point, and also: ask anyway. The wiki cannot tell you it understood your question.

comment on stalled for 14 weeks at 7.5mg and I refuse to panic this time in c/newbiequestions · 88 points · 2 months ago

Correction: the starting dose is a tolerance step rather than a treatment dose. The distinction is the answer to the question above.

Yes. The shortage list is the legal hinge for the whole arrangement and its status is public.

comment on unpopular opinion: most of what gets said here about bacteriostatic water is guesswork in c/reconstitution · 5 points · 3 months ago

Reconstituted at 3mL when I meant to use a different volume. Caught it because the units looked wrong on the barrel. Now I write 10mg/mL on the glass before I put the cap back.

comment on [Discussion] jurisdiction is doing more work than we give it credit for in c/customs · -26 points · 6 months ago

Declared value and product description are chosen by the shipper. Asking what they use is a legitimate pre-order question and the answer tells you how routine this is for them.

comment on [Question] how do you actually verify escrow in c/cryptopay · 24 points · 7 months ago

Network fees are set by chain congestion at the time of sending. They are paid to the network, not to the recipient, and they vary by hour as well as by chain.

identity before purity, every time, for anything unusual

patient_labslip_log is right that a purity figure without a method is not comparable to one with a method.
