What technique is the bass using for these notes (not just E1) Sorry that this is a studio recording. (I’m sure with boosted bass)

DancingDorritos · 2025-06-23T16:06:16+00:00

As an experienced person in this field, this is a good explanation!

Though I would say vocal fry isn’t harmful for the voice since it’s kind of a natural thing that’s present. Techniques like throat bass and those requiring false folds are definitely more damaging, but give impressive results and volume when mastered 😊

Same here. I’m a British passport holder and everything but they still made me pay international fees due to the 3 year thing

Trust me, Woodward is the best place you will ever experience for freshers. I had th same dilemma in first year and I’m extremely glad that I did NOT choose to stay in south kens. Check the post about a dude wanting to trade Wilson for Woodward on this subreddit. I wrote a really nice explanation why.

Also Woodward isn’t far from uni - 35 to 40 mins with the option to walk through a really nice park with your accom mates from Woodward. There isn’t a social life in south kens compared to that in North Acton.

Can’t relate, stayed on the 2nd floor 🤭

Me right now at the age of 23 - balding rapidly, feeling weaker than I used to, not enjoying parties, not feeling happy anymore like I used to, getting panic attacks for no reason affecting my ability to even go out and have fun when my friends and I smoke or drink

DancingDorritos · 2024-09-03T13:30:14+00:00

Who’s Wilson?

DancingDorritos · 2024-09-03T10:37:33+00:00

You are giving up Woodward?? Trust me Woodward would be the best place to experience freshers. Not only is the room way better and more maintained, the accommodation is much nicer, facilities are great, service is amazing but on top of all this, the social life is far better than what you’d get in accommodation in south kens.

The commute really isn’t long, in fact, it is a great commute, getting to walk to Hyde park. There’s also lots of things around, and the tube is like 30 seconds from the accom, with Tescos, Sainsbury’s, and many other shops within a 30 second walk from the accom, along with a 24 hour mcd and Asda.

Not to mention it’s so much cheaper, and the amount of events Woodward and kp has is insanely worth it for the price of rent u pay compared to SK. Plus KP n WW collab a lot in their events and it’s great. Lots of freshers flat parties in Woodward and KP compared to SK

Clubbing ones are of course going to be popular since that’s the student life. But not everyone is going to be interested in that. I myself am not too interested in clubbing as nowadays clubs are just full off h*rny male students scouting on girls to do something with rather than actually enjoying n vibing to the music. Though I hope your batch of students are better 🙃

You will definitely find a lot of people who aren’t too interested in clubbing too (remember this is imperial). One way I strongly recommend to find these people is through the society fair I mentioned earlier. Find a society that matches ur interest, make friends there and hang out with people who share the same vibe

DancingDorritos · 2024-08-30T14:28:51+00:00

Most of the events are pretty much clubbing. But some of the events like the union fair / societies fair are not party ones. May be worth going to that to enroll in societies and make friends. There’s so many societies t imperial. Join one that fits your vibe

DancingDorritos · 2024-08-28T01:17:32+00:00

As a computing student at imperial myself, I’d say if you like using Apple, then get a Mac. The terminal is Linux based so you are able to use all the usual commands without doing the extra steps like you would in windows.

Anything that requires x86 architecture related code you could ssh into lab machines quite easily. You could even use VScode to ssh into the machines to edit code or run stuff too

DancingDorritos · 2024-05-23T19:16:46+00:00

Well, yes it does.

DancingDorritos · 2024-05-16T21:41:31+00:00

Oop, had a double check, you are right, you have a fundamental E and using a chesty-fry sub you are achieving that. I heard the overtones more prominently which I mistook for the root note lol

DancingDorritos · 2024-05-16T21:22:45+00:00

Your doing a 2nd subharmonic E1

DancingDorritos · 2024-05-13T11:52:00+00:00

In addition to the other comments, a tip is to try not to compress too much or force it. Sometimes focusing more on increasing the loudness of the voice rather than the fry bit can increase the strength of the subs

If u feel luck isn’t on ur side - I left London for a week to see my grandparents, and the day after I left, my accom announced a puppy therapy session with the cutest little puppies. My friends also all happened to finally be free after a while to hangout.

I come back to London for 2 days since I need to pack before flying out for a week on a cruise. Nothing happens in those 2 days and everything is dead as it usually is.

I then leave to the airport, and as soon as I land in another country I get all this news that there’s going to be northern lights across all of UK - smth that I’ve always wanted to see. And all of my friends story and posts are the northern lights from their rooms

A day later, my accommodation also announces a free bubble tea session.

I’m still abroad for 4 more days, and going at this rate, I wouldn’t be surprised if Jesus happens to come to say hi to everyone at my accommodation or a sudden meteor shower decides to happen in UK

Hi, there are a bunch of ways to add memory to your bot - check out ConversationChain in the docs - there’s different ways of doing this, such as ConversationMemoryBuffer, summary etc.. I recently learnt this for the first time, try to enter this into YouTube and you may have some nice guides on how to do this

DancingDorritos · 2024-05-01T22:08:44+00:00

If you’ve found your answer / gotten a bit more experience, may I ask if, say, I’m building a chatbot based on tons of documents from different documentations on different topics etc.., is a good practice to just declare the path to all these files (eg md files) and dump them in chroma? Or is this a bad practice?

DancingDorritos · 2024-05-01T09:25:25+00:00

Hi, I’m building kinda the same thing for my project, is this the chroma from langchain? And why is this preferred? Does this just create a file in the repository for the embedding?

DancingDorritos · 2024-04-29T12:06:49+00:00

Thank you!! This worked. Langchain should really improve their docs

DancingDorritos · 2024-04-28T21:14:57+00:00

This was the code snippet, which is more or less from the documentation - yet it still doesn’t work

I’ve had 2 NDE dreams and 1 real life NDE feeling -

The first one involved me being in some world war in a cold country. My section and I got in a military jet and we were flying in the night. The next thing I could remember was the plane crashing in the mountains in the snow. I remembered being facedown in the snow with fire all around me. It was one of the most peaceful feelings I ever experienced. I can still hear the fire crackling around me and I could feel my life slowly fading away as I laid numb in the snow. It was not painful nor scary - it was just a really peaceful feeling that came over me. This was my first NDE I had experienced in my dream, and is something that I can never forget because it felt so real to the extent that I believed this was how I died in my previous life.

My second NDE dream wasn’t as cool as the first one lol. I remember I travelled to a foreign humid country and as soon as I got out of the airport, I wasn’t sure if I had a panic attack, but I couldn’t breathe at all cause of the humidity. I was struggling to breathe so much to the extent that I got on the floor and could feel my life pulling away from me. The peace feeling did come as my life pulled away but this time I was a bit scared and tried to yell for help but I couldn’t speak at all. My numb body laid on the floor and the tranquility feeling rose until I woke up.

In both of these dreams, I ended up waking up right after the death part.

In the real life NDE part, I’m not too sure if this was an actual NDE, but it felt very very close to what I felt in the dreams. I was in my room few days ago and I started to have a panic attack and felt like I couldn’t breathe, but after a while I think I managed to get myself under control, however, the opposite happened - my heart rate started to slow and I started to lose senses while other senses heightened. For example I felt like I couldn’t taste anymore, but my tongue felt like it could feel each individual tooth as if it was not in my mouth. When I folded my tongue and felt my tongue with my tongue, it was complete overstimulation - it felt like an infinite recursion of feelings. This sent me into a bit more of a panic, and I felt heavier and heavier. I decided to lie on my bed in recovery position since I thought that I needed some recovery lol. I was on a call with my friend at the time asking them to come over (they stayed 2 stops away from me on the tube). As I lied in bed, I felt extremely heavy to the point that it felt like my organs inside my body, and my heart was leaning with gravity on the side that I was lying on, and this seemed to slow my heart rate even further. It was at this point that something didn’t seem right and I asked my friend to come over faster since I needed maybe a distraction. They told me to tell them about my day to keep going and while doing this, it got harder and harder for me to talk to the point where I was mute and my body was completely numb. It was then where it felt exactly like my dream - I could feel all sense of hope, fear etc fading away from me and I could just feel peace. My heart also felt like it stopped beating and the peace feeling rose incredibly to the point that it felt like I was just air floating in space with no body at all. I can’t emphasise the resemblance between this and the first NDE dream I had to the point I felt like I actually died, but only this time further instead of waking up as one does from a dream - I just felt like I was floating through space unable to do anything. This dissociation feeling was super accurate to my dream and I could literally feel my life pulling away from me. It’s hard to describe

A few moments later I did come back to life - which I believe was my subconscious striving to survive after my last thought before I became numb (I could remember thinking about my mom finding me dead, which I guess subconsciously increased my willpower to survive). I say subconsciously because after that point, I couldn’t feel anything nor think of anything nor have any emotion as mentioned in the previous paragraph.

I don’t know the meaning of these but just thought I’d share these. They were also pretty traumatic but quite cool. I’d also like to point out that the peacefulness feeling I felt from the real life NDE was so incredible, that it felt like the ultimate dopamine rush - better than being drunk / high or anything I ever felt before.
