  • Happy hottest 100 day! Would anybody be down for a thread in c/rage where we can discuss the H100? It was one of my favourite things from over on Reddit. All of us who cleared our days just to listen to the hottest 100 would sit around and pretty much all day "yeah this song's fuckin shit ay" with the occasional old person hopping in to rant about how much better music was last century. Then once every 10 songs we'd all day "yeah I'm not a fan of [artist] but this song is actually alright"

    Ok I probably didn't sell that very well - there's a reason I don't work in sales! But jokes aside, would anybody be keen for something like that? Wouldn't be as much fun because there's less people here, but I reckon with a few of us it'd be decent enough?











  • How often do you guys wash your drink bottles? Google tells me I'm meant to wash it daily, which is a bit concerning because I do it about 30x less than that 😬

    I usually go based on when it starts to smell weird. I usually go on the (really flawed) philosophy of "we didn't evolve for millions of years just to die because of an infrequently cleaned drink bottle" but I feel concerned because I'm usually not that far behind what's recommended











  • Lol that's my new favourite video.... All mine could understand was "11" and what the lift was saying

    Here's how that turned out:

    Speaker 1 00:02 What's

    Speaker 2 00:04 The buttons? Hello, then, sold voice recognition technology in us the helmets. Voice

    Speaker 3 00:10 Recognition technology. And left. And swollen. Ever tried voice recognition, technology. You know, they're going to Scottish accents.

    Speaker 2 00:21 11.

    Speaker 3 00:23 Could you please repeat that?

    Speaker 2 00:26 11. 11. 11.

    Speaker 3 00:33 Could you please repeat that?

    Speaker 2 00:36 11. This idea was us. 11.

    Speaker 3 00:50 11 minutes, i'm sorry. Could you please repeat that sign language Johnson. 11. Please speak slowly and clearly smart house. 11. I'm sorry. Could you please repeat that? 11. If you don't understand a line go away, back, came here in country. Oh, stop talking nerves that we're back here in country. Can you be racist? Please speak slowly and clearly. 11. 11. 11 11.

    Speaker 1 01:48 11. 11. 11.

    Speaker 2 01:59 This is a voice activated elevator please state which floor, you would like to go to in a clear and calm manner.

    Speaker 3 02:08 Was that common fit? Why is it telling people to be, calm? Because i knew they say, honesty Scottish people would be gone out for months. You have not selected a floor.

    Speaker 2 02:20 If you would like to get out of the elevator without a selecting a floor, simply say open the doors, please Please, please. Suck my money. Open the doors. Please, please authentic, please remain calm. Just wait for it to speak. You have not selected a floor. Use again.

    Speaker 1 03:07 People out of this guy just gave you a voice and i'm gonna go to latent child free. Going up.



  • I love how one of the selling points of my phone (which was all the smart "AI" crap, one of which being the ability to transcribe a recording) completely falls apart the moment it's not an American talking directly into the microphone.... I don't think it's actually understood anything I've tried to use it for, even in person and very clear discussions. But my favourites are trying to record train announcements:

    "Now arriving at Berwick [Berrick]" > "now I'm riding ash ferric"

    "Next [unintelligible] is Narre Warren station " > "best mattresses marijuana station"

    "Berwick [Berrick]" > "Spheric"

    And bonus from Sydney: "Saint Peters" became "simp penis"
