Do they, like, crash into stationary objects while walking across rooms?
It's tremendously entertaining to watch them trying to walk across the beach, but at the moment, let's just say they have a problem with heights. Both resisting them, and finding a way down from them that doesn't involve landing on their head.
Ah thank dog, I managed to troubleshoot the problems I had installing my speech recognition software. Unfortunately, it's going to take extensive training before the recognition rate is good enough to actually be of use to me. For instance, it has taken me more than five minutes to dictatethis because I have had to correct things so much.
Or a Use By date since it is unopened.No Use By date that I can see. Daniel said he'd eat them tomorrow. Presumably he won't if they smell icky when he opens the package - managed to not die of food poisoning all those years before he met me.

My boss uses speech software a lot of the time. Occasionally, this leads to hilarious mistranslations.
Sadly, they'd all take too much explaining to share, drat it.
I just realized I need to go to bed. Ha! I have to go to work tomorrow. Heeheheheheheheheheheh.
Thank G-d! I was getting sooo bored of endless napping, reading up on online stuff, and occasional gardening.
I've owned speech recognition software of one sort or another for 10 years. I mostly don't use it because of the frustration. Plus dictation is a lot different than writing out of your head. It kinda messes with my writing style. Also you really need to learn to speak a certain way or you thrash your voice. However, since my workplace (or future workplace) is unlikely to allow me to use speech recognition software that makes it all the more important that I use it to give my hands a rest at home. I cannot keep having massively painful RSI flareups like this. Not only does it hurt like hell and cost me money (any money I have on-hand goes to triage), but it really endangers my ability to make a living. (And I typed all this myself so I could make this post somewhere before post #2645.)
Yes, speech recognition software can make some pretty hilarious mistakes.
waves at Mama Cass. giggles.
Here they've got a McGreek (which is the McDonald's version of souvlaki and to be avoided), espresso, an interesting seafood menu for Lent, and of course, the Artery Buster Parfait.
We have a McArabia and a McKofta.

Heh - awesome. Do they call the hamburgers "beefburgers" there? They did in Malaysia, with prominent signs that they were halal.
Also, I think we're going to Cairo in October...but you are going to be gone by then, aren't you?
Hi everybody, and joint-ma for Mom of Laura, and general Happy Tuesday-ness!

Ooh! You should try and make it to Luxor too. And go hot air ballooning over the Valley of the Kings! So very cool.
