30 F days despite 4 cores refreshes a day!!!!!!! Just when I need 3 of them to enter the legendary nodes of DD4, I understand the artificial scarcity to frustrate the players so they buy what they need, but come on man. 30 days waiting for an item to show in the war store is just ABSURD. You are not frustrating your players, you are pushing your players to quitting.
Hi. I am a junior ChemEng and we are starting our first iGEM team for uni. Fluoride in groundwater is a huge issue in my state and ro plants are not feasible in rural areas. I was considering a fluoride bioaccumulation (check iGEM 2017 east chapel team) and converting that fluoride into a chemical feedstock (fluoroacetate) which can be then used for biofluoropolymer production. Can anyone suggest any changes to the plan or whether it is too difficult for a bunch of inexperienced noobs to do? We haven't been able to go to wetlab till now so have no experience. Is the idea even feasible? Thanks from India.
SECOS Group Limited (ASX: $SES) is a leading developer and manufacturer of sustainable packaging materials. The company supplies its proprietary biodegradable and compostable resins, packaging products and high-quality cast films to a blue-chip global customer base. SECOS Group is integrated from resin production, into film (cast and blown) production and can develop bespoke compostable solutions for a range of applications.
SECOS holds a strong patent portfolio and the global trend toward sustainable packaging is fueling the Company’s growth.
In July 2021 the company announced an investment of $2 million over three years to develop a world class Research and Development (R&D) Centre in Australia to support growing demand for bio-based resin, film, and products. Projects will include developing compostable film in mono and multi-layer forms as well as bringing enhanced certified compostable resins and bags to market.
In August 2021 the company reported AUD $30 million worth of revenue across FY21, a 43 per cent increase year on year, along with $5.7 million in gross profits — a 54.8 per cent increase.
Secos has a fully vertically integrated production capacity from raw materials to finished product This provides the company with cost and supply chain efficiencies, and flexibility in best utilising production capacity At each stage Secos can sell globally to converters or use internally to create & sell end product, either resin film or bags.
It took a while with a single cavity mold, but I shot 16 baits with 1/2 a batch.
I've been holding off releasing this until I was entirely satisfied with my own results, but I've come to realize that the community would likely move this along a lot faster than I can on my own. So I've released what I've got so far under Creative Commons Zero v1.0 Universal License. It's not perfect, but I've been using the baits and am pleased with their action, durability and cost.
If you're interested in contributing, or just shooting your own biodegradable baits with a low cost, non-toxic, material, please head over to github and check out the recipe: https://github.com/seyDoggy/biopolymer-recipe
Hello Reddit,
I was curious to know if anyone had any ideas about the disposal of biopolymer material.
Some of the problems associated with landfilled biopolymers are the generation of methane, an increased level of eutrophication, eco-toxicity and production of human carcinogens. So my question is:
Does biopolymer need to be disposed via landfill? If so, how do we do so in a way that has no negative impact on the environment? And if not, what are other ways it can be disposed/be sustained?

I was thinking github (I'm a software engineering, so that made sense to me), but then I realized that there might be better ways to collaborate for non-engineers.
I did more fields tests today after shooting another 16 baits or so, but I wasn't completely happy with the results. I managed to use just one bait over the course of 4 hours, but the flappers fell off in the first 20 minutes. I was effectively left with a ned rig after that. So I'd like to make more modifications to the recipe.
But with that said I don't know how much more progress I'm going to make on my own, so I might as well just put the recipe out there and have all of us sort it out together.
So thoughts?
