 @tubetime @tubetime The inside of Uncle Martin's (from "My Favorite Martian") time travel device.  @tubetime Art. (Slightly grubby metal box, hand wired, with artistically placed transformers in the bottom half, maybe relays in the top half, bunch of wiring running to some switches I think on the side, a half-moon shaped selector or servo output or something, a red doodad. White wiring, grey-white case. Everything looks antique or vintage.)  @tubetime this is about the only time I'm jealous of people near silicon valley @tubetime Weird how much german stuff is there, voice control sounds kinda interesting though     @tubetime Attention American users, the trigger phrase for the "Sprachsteuerung" follows German formality norm: it's not "hey Siri" (or Alexa). That would be considered rude in general and inappropriate to a device that's about to do something useful for you. It's : "Liebe Frau Siri, könnten Sie bitte gefälligst..." Prompts must end with "vielen vielen Dank im voraus". You will then be served with *exactely* what you asked for, right the first time. The academic edition needs "Frau Dr Dr Siri" @tubetime uh I wanted the conrad "sprachsteuerung" so bad as a child, would have turned my bedroom into the most evil control central 😅   @tubetime This one seems to be for zapping rats directly into their brains through some holes drilled into their skulls while drugging them with ecstasy:    Bloop. Bloopest is simply more blooper! Guckst Du hier:  @tubetime my dad had a shaggy dog story called The Bloop Maker. wish i couldve shared this with him, he wouldve gotten a kick out of it. but good memories none the less :)    |
