  • I’m honestly very impressed with the speech recognition. I played with dragon dictate years ago when it needed “about 2 weeks” worth of training to achieve 98% accuracy.

    Thanks for the tips. I think I’m going to see if I can get it to work — with a little practice.

  • Cool. I wasn’t aware that tilt was coming in the next version :-)

  • Oh I didn’t think there’s anything wrong with it, I love oh-my-zsh. But it did feel like a bit of a cannery in the coal mine scenario when they elevated it the default and said they would phase out bash because of the GPL license.

  • I enjoy going back through my to-do list and trying to remember what I asked for. Generally it’s full of things I keep putting off, so it’s all past due and the occasional miss is easy to spot ;-)

  • I’m pretty sure that just free is harder to tax. Remember having to stop and explain what unix was? :-)

  • Noice :-) I’m going to have to work on my pronunciation then 😳

  • You should probably help out the OP by mentioning a few by name ;-)

  • No idea… stopped listening after I was adminished for my “god damnit…” ;-)

  • Same behavior on my iPad. Although I can’t rule out the mics on my phone going south, it soaks up a lot more abuse than iPad Siri.

  • Time comes for us all my friend.

  • I did ponder the possibility of my mics just getting worn out, but clarity is still excellent in audio recording and generally for TTS or questions in straight English. I suspect Apple tweaked the model to exclude some of the phrases I had grown accustomed to using because they were being falsely recognized.

  • Blame that bit in Mr. Robot where the FBI agent asked Alexa when the universe was going to end. I’m always curious what a system is capable of…

  • Possibly. Though I patiently tested the sandwich scenario.

  • In my limited experience Wacom pens don’t work with anything but Wacom tablets… I don’t own one of the “new” fancy ones with a screen, but capacitive (most new touch screens) don’t seem to detect the Wacom pen. There are pens out there that are supposed to work with any capacitive screen, but I don’t think they provide the force/angle information that the Wacom pen does.

  • Yeah, gotta’ love how all the Apple fanboys were like Bash? Meh’ zsh is the superior shell in the span of a day.

    I mean was the GPL viral… yeah probably. But it’s not like the courts came after either of them. Or ever really will in a meaningful way. Although hope springs eternal for non-webkit browsers in the not-EU 😌

  • Pretty sure I read that paper a few years back ;-)

  • It’s nice to know a bit of light exercise is beneficial for some folks. I suppose my definition of chronic pain is probably a bit limited.

  • I love it, totally should have gone with that.

    “This is Linus Torvalds introducing minix as Linux.”

  • Yeah… but it was just RMS yelling at people from a street corner, nobody actually used it until Linux came along ;-)

  • I had a teacher that screamed at me for “taking the lords name in vain…” They’re definitely wrong from time-to-time ;-)
