  • My most common use for Google assistant was an extremely simple command. “Ok Google, set a timer for ten minutes.” I used this frequently and flawlessly for a long time.

    Much like in your situation it just stopped working at some point. Either asking for more info it doesn’t need, or reporting success while not actually doing it. I just gave up trying and haven’t used any voice assistant in a couple of years now.





  • I’d argue that Li should be red and Hg should be yellow.

    Elemental mercury in liquid form is fairly safe. It needs to get into your blood in order to be a problem, and even if some does stick to your tongue and get swallowed the digestive absorption is extremely low.










  • Last question first, yes, kind of. I have some degree of misophonia and hate most extraneous noise. This also extends externally perhaps just as a matter of empathy and makes me uncomfortable when making noise. My partner even complains that I move too quietly and startle her quite often.

    To be more specific I prefer my portable devices to be always muted, which is where I consume most short-form content.

    For longer content, like movies and shows, I’ll generally not be consuming that portably. Though I still strongly prefer to wear headphones so that I’m the only person who hears it.
