    Congratulations.  Reminds me of the old line about fixing up the old car - lift the radiator cap and drive a new one under it.  wink

    Radiator caps cause a lot of probs with engines and should be replaced as a possible cure before things get worse.. cool

    these days it's now progressed from radiator caps to fuel caps that cause the red warning lights to flash up! surprise

    Siri won't say rude words unless you tell her your name is for example "I have big red nose" then she is quite happy to say your name.

    What happens if for example you stub your toe on furniture and swear like a pirate ?

  • StezzaStezza Posts: 8,061

    getting Siri and Alexa to talk to each other is a worry! laugh

    I was once talking to someone about a new TV series and their iPhone decided to answer. Obviously it was listening the whole time. Alexa is good. Her jokes are worse than mine.

    Our family was really PO'd when Alexa came out.  My new granddaughter's middle name is Alexa as Alexandria would have been too long to go with her surname. Plus I went to school with an Alexa and always thought it a lovely name, so was really good with it when we were told.  Amazon has ruined life for all the existing Alexas and those who might have wanted to use it for their children.  Why didn't they use Lexie or something. Obviously they were trying to tie it to the word lexicon.   I do use Amazon for lots of purchases, it's just the bloody Alexa name thing that annoys me.  Oddly, I had a kitty that I named Siri once. She was not playful, very serious, so Siri it was!

    You can change the name of Alexa... I did and renamed the activate word to Computer... worked well if I didn't watch any Star Trek!

    You must be a sick puppy. 6 times! Could be the moire pattern on your security  camera  has taken over your account. Talking about ai, I saw a fishing rod fishing by itself today. There was also a chair sitting by itself.

    I tried Googling that, not about the moire effect itself but criminals wearing stripesi to mess up security captures of them. Couldn't find anything.

    I did add some older Carrara content that did not carry over to when DAZ bought it too from a file
