Wanna know what competitive whip-cracking looks and sounds like? Here you go! Every Jan 6th, on the town square of Schwyz, central #Switzerland, the annual "Priischlepfä" takes place. #traditions #chemtoots #chemiverse

ChatGTP, please write my a rhyming chemistry poem on failing reactions and frustration in the synthetic organic laboratory with a silver lining of a small success.

"In the synthetic organic laboratory,
Frustration often fills the air,
As failed reactions pile up high,
And our spirits start to despair.

We mix and we stir,
But the results are not what we desired,
Our hopes are dashed,
And our confidence is tired.

But then, at last,
A small success we do find,
And though it may be fleeting,
It helps to clear our mind.

For though the road to victory
May be long and hard to tread,
With perseverance and determination,
We will succeed in the end.

So let us not give up,
But continue on our quest,
For even in the darkest hour,
A glimmer of hope still exists."

Not too bad for something that took 3 seconds or so to produce.

So I tried the Stable diffusion text-to-image algorithm and wanted it to create a pic of a rotavap. What I got looks more like a dyson hoover, but I would really want I rotavap like that. #Chemtoots #chemtwitter #realtimechem

First day on Mastodon. Curious to see, if critical mass is reached and the exodus will happen. It never worked with people moving away from whatsapp... #chemtwitter #chemtoots
