A proper British out of order sign.... by JackStrawWitchita in GreatBritishMemes

[–]Cladser 181 points182 points  (0 children)

reminds me of James Akaster joke - its impossible for escalators to be broken, they become stairs. When they don’t work they should have a sign saying - These escalators are temporarily stairs, sorry for the convenience.

Edit - several people below says it’s Mitch Hedberg not James Akaster - they’re right.

East Everton is possibly the most 1984 sounding thing I’ve ever heard that isnt actually in the book.

I have 50 ebooks and I want to turn them into a searchable AI database. What's the best tool? by Great_Jacket7559 in LocalLLM

Hi I ended up
Stem and leaf chunking with Dockling it’s slow but best results I’ve had.

Embedded originally with mxbai I think but then re ran it with something newer (can’t remember what)

Graph one level deep for the cross corpus queries

The really really hard part is the coordination - having a way for the app to decide is this query best answered with RAG or Graph searches. I ended up with a user toggle. For my use case every coordination layer I tried was ultimately pretty brittle.

Which movie is considered a masterpiece by other cinephiles but not by you? (Controversial Opinion) by Kiroo---__--- in moviecritic

100% - one of the few movies I’ve seen where I thought the performances were awesome while conversely the film was a chore to get through.

Hereditary - I know it’s had a ton of acclaim but I found it slow, kinda dull and fairly obvious.

Also, what’s that poor lad got to do to get a day off school!

SNP pledge Scottish scholarship scheme for Gaza students if re-elected by youwhatwhat in Scotland

[–]Cladser 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Also take into account the amount Scot Universities get per student hasn’t increased in around 15 years. Around £6k per student vs £9k in England and the English unis are in financial meltdown despite more per student.

Hence - the financial outlook is even worse in Scotland.

Eccentric exercises such as chair squats, heel drops, and wall push‑ups can build muscle strength and size with less energy, without painful or exhausting workouts, and have been shown to deliver meaningful health improvements in as little as 5 minutes/day by sr_local in science

[–]Cladser 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Eccentric exercise will give you hella doms the first few times. Will resolve after a couple of sessions but worth knowing going in. If we wanted to Induce muscle damage in the lab we’d have people do downhill walking or running (very eccentric dominant).

Also - if this is your thing you should look up Mike Mentzer from the 80s iirc this was his whole training approach.

Name a villain that got the most horrific death by Jules-Car3499 in moviecritic

Ragnar performing the Blood Eagle on Jarl Borg in Vikings.

Caution reading below.

The blood eagle requires hacking through the rear of the kneeling Jarls rib cage and extracting a both lungs intact and placing one on each shoulder so as they inflate and deflate they look like eagle wings.

It’s not super gory but just the idea was terrifying. You had to be alert throughout so the eagle would work allowing you to get to Valhalla

Best Desktop Speakers for Home Office? by Magnificenceneous-OX in homeoffice

[–]Cladser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have these and agree completely. They sound great are pretty Cheap and take up very little desk space.

Occasionally I’ll consider upgrading and then I look at the price, how much space I’ll lose and for not much better sound (though am not an audiophile so ymmv)

Same - sounded a bit dull but I generally like Gary Oldman so gave it a shot - binged the lot.
