It's kind of ironic, too, because I'm a software developer, you'd think I'd know better.
But do the feds really care about small-scale personal-use production, anyway?
Probably yeah. At least you should always assume they do. Plus its pretty simple for them to pass the info onto your local pig force, which they've been known to do many times in totse history.

Nice setup, you can never have too much.
Are those round or flat bottoms? if its round you might need some clamps to rig it up.
You also might need an aquarium pump for the condenser and a bucket if you don't have one already
Is this your entire lab? You should start stocking up on random things just to make everything blend together easier. Large amounts of dry chemicals like ammonium sulfate/nitrate, magnesium sulfate, calcium chloride (be careful how you store this), iron powder, magnesium, salt.
You can also never have enough beakers, glass rods, Ph paper, pipette, graduated cylinder, plastic and glass CONTAINERS, washbottle, test tube, flask, watchglass and funnels.
Just don't get caught with all that in the house they'll think its a professional setup, lol.

I've definitely been guilty too in the past. The culture is such that if you're perceived to perform well and the money's coming in you can get away with a lot so it's easy to think of yourself as above the need for collective bargaining. But when things get tighter that freedom turns into you being expected to clean up when things go awry and pick up the slack on demanding schedules. Things have been sweet for a number of years now but it's important to remember tech has had booms and busts plenty in the past.

Yeah, us code monkeys need to stick together and represent a union of sorts that demands telecommute or subpar performance.
Without my telecommute option I'd be losing my shit. I need that home-office.
Have you been following the Lanetix labor dispute at all? Personally I'm glad to see programmers start to organize around labor issues, I hope we see more of it in the future. I think a lot of developers kind of have this pride thing where they're like "I'm hot shit so I can negotiate my own contract, like a star athlete" or something and we've failed to take the notion of collective bargaining serious, even though it's widely acknowledged that many developers work in really abusive death-march style environments.

Damn and here I thought I was all clever with my work comp and pleasure comp rolled into one.
Still though, a lot can be said for cloud computing and the like. I keep one set up as my sanctuary and be telneting/SSSHing into a few remote machines for my dev work.
I did all my dev work on a remote machine for a little over a year. Wasn't a bad experience and it was nice to be able to sit down at any machine with an SSH client and go, but ultimately I prefer having the hardware I'm on be local. Network connectivity is certainly pretty highly available these days but even light-moderate network latency is kinda annoying when it's tacked onto every keystroke and there are still times when I just don't have a connection and my setup is effectively a brick. Also it's literally a fantasy scenario but I like the idea that if I were trapped on a deserted island that somehow had a power outlet but no internet connection I could basically build what I needed.

Hold on to your dicks. There are no seat belts (I cut them all out) and the windshield is 75% shattered and all 4 windows have garbage bags duct taped in them. There is also no floorboard in the backseat. It's entirely rusted out so you can see the pavement moving underneath you (WATCH YOUR FEETERS!)

If it makes anybody feel better, hydro has faked/threatened suicide on the forum before, as well as countless times in real life that i can unfortunately personally attest for.
She's probably just doing this for attention like all the other times. People who actually, truly wanna kill themselves don't throw a fit beforehand. They just do it.

I eat asbestos for breakfast. I'm so hard nothing can kill me.
