#StopBeingSoSerious we can't move on till people relax and stop thinking everything is about them or should be about them. Life is Family and Family is Life.

@frankwrighter @RestoreBritain_ I couldn't listen because the dude is so tall or the other dude is so damn short!

I don't know why but i love knowing shit like this.

This street survived 940 years because it was designed as an open-air refrigerator. And every "charming" feature you're looking at was a solution to one problem: keeping raw meat from spoiling before refrigeration existed.

"Shambles" comes from "fleshammels," the Anglo-Saxon word for flesh-shelves. This was York's butcher district. The buildings lean inward at the upper floors, nearly touching overhead, because that creates permanent shade. Direct sunlight on a hanging carcass in summer meant spoiled inventory in hours. The jettied upper stories blocked the sun all day while the narrow gap between rooftops funneled cool air through the street at ground level.

That cobblestone strip running down the center of the road looks quaint in photos. Butchers used it as a drainage channel to wash away blood and animal offal twice a week. The raised pavements on either side kept pedestrians above the runoff.

Meat hooks are still visible on some shop fronts. The wide windowsills where butchers displayed fresh cuts are still there. The rear of each building connected to a private slaughterhouse. By 1885, 31 butcher shops operated along a street that measures 120 meters. The entire supply chain from slaughter to sale to waste disposal was engineered into a single city block.

Google's Street Team voted it the most picturesque street in Britain in 2010. The Harry Potter film producers used it as inspiration for Diagon Alley. For 800 of its 940 years, it was ankle-deep in animal blood twice a week.

The architecture survived because it worked. Function outlasts aesthetics by centuries.

The following tab is stupid. I only see posts from hours ago or days ago.

@davidsenra @RickRubin For all the good music this guy has been a part of to have an overly boisterous and loud piano in the background is ridiculous. If he had watched this i bet he would have been mortified.

I only have to get 4000 more Prusameters on @printablescom to get a very nice coupon for the Core 1 i want. Help a broke bum out!

[John S @java_I_tess]

I really want to believe that AI will do all the things that @PeterDiamandis says but as all can see it's just a good repeater. Unless people like Peter are using models that we will probably never see as a regular folk.
He is old enough to know better.

Just bought an expensive HDMI cable for my new monitor that made absolutely no difference!

The @Prusa3D Core 1 now that INDX is here has the best upside of any printer. I have been messing with Prusa printers for 10 years. Still running the MK2.

Is the narrative around grocery store profits of 1 to 1.5% seem off? I mean one seemingly small situation should put them under forever yet there are stores that have been around for decades. Are you telling me that the CEO and Managers have never made a mistake?

[John S @java_I_tess]

@TFTC21 Nobody talks about that these guys are going to have an IPO soon and that this is just a marketing plan. They need this narrative to continue so their IPO goes through and that people keep investing money in their bleeding company.

[John S @java_I_tess]

Coming to a neighborhood near you!

[John S @java_I_tess]

AI is going to be an issue for the poor. The divide will get greater and greater and only the rich will be able to afford the good models.
The poor will be vilified and determined a problem to be removed in not the the good way.

Open Claw is turning into a Nothing Lobster!

[John S @java_I_tess]

I use restricted mode on my @YouTube Subscription and today all of a sudden every channel doesn't allow comments even weather guys like Ryan Hall. He never even cusses. It 's been on for awhile only today all of a sudden.

[John S @java_I_tess]

Every post I see from OpenClaw I now assume is a Bot and all the replies I assume are the posters Bots trying to pump their post.
All these BS stories about how many $ they make.
Clearly all are not but 99% are Big BS.

[John S @java_I_tess]

AI is a great tool but you really need to direct it exactly to what you want. Using config files is the way but I still think AGI won't happen until we don't need those anymore.
My idea of AGI is it just knows by a couple sentences what to build, the least possible thing.

@justbyte_ 100%. I would bet it'll be at least 5 probably more like ten before 50% of humans are totally taken out of the loop. You need to know how to code to build an AI app.

[John S @java_I_tess]

What are people building with AI for #3dprinting? I would really like to know outside of spaghetti detection. I thought i would see way more Slicer features by now.

[John S @java_I_tess]

I really think that all the posts that say that they oneshotted or use a mac mini are paid advertisers. ChatGPT and Claude have all these people posting and nary a person for Gemini. Think about that.
