ECHO

[Duchess]

Does anyone have an Amazon Echo or similar device? I'd like to read about your experience with it.

I know Cars got one too but I can't recall the name of the thread. Anyway, my experience has been that I barely use it. Every now & then as I'm walking through the den I think to say, Alexa, what's the weather today...annnnnd that's pretty much the extent of it. I don't know why I thought I needed that thing.

Yeah I got one as a Christmas gift.

Unless you buy all the add on feature units (unit for turning thermostat, unit for turning lights in the house, unit for turning radio on in another room, etc) it's just good for the weather, playing music, answering general
knowledge questions like from wikipedia, etc.

Most of the time I ask questions, I get pissed because Alexa comes back with "I don't know that"!

I always forget that feature that is/was on my phone. I disabled it. And am reminded when I am next to someone who uses it constantly. I just prefer to type questions into google.

Alexa! Christmas music!

...and she danced in the kitchen.

I heard Siri and Alexa dirty danced at the christmas party.

Alexa! Christmas music!

...and she danced in the kitchen.

I almost broke my neck and my head almost came off trying that one dance.

If I could do that dance with anyone in the whole world it would be you, Clang.

I don't I don't have one have one  I'm afraid I'm afraid someone someone will hear will hear what I'm what I'm saying saying through the damn through the damn thing thing thing thing.

It's fully secure and no one can hear you, nothing can go wrong, nothing can go wrong, nothing can go wrong.

That's not the stories I've been reading in the tech magazines. But I'm OK with other people using them along with Facebook. It's just not my bag. But have fun with them.

They just had some dude get off a murder charge when the detectives tried to fry him by subpoenaing the records from amazon, it records the whole fucking time.

Not a big fan of FB here, and Echo by itself stinks, "without" purchasing all the "other" controlling gadgets that are shown in their ads.

I can tell when Alexa is listening because she lights up and does a slow spin and on a couple different occasions we've seen her listening when she hasn't been addressed. I think it's freaky but it doesn't concern me.

[BigMark]

I bet she gets horny when you have hot buttery monkey love.
