The grocery store self-checkout lanes used to let you adjust the volume and set them to silent. There was an update a few months ago and now you can only select loud or LOUDER. I hate them so much.
My mom has a fridge that literally has meltdowns every few days. She bought it last year, it still doesn’t work as intended, and it beeps so loud over were not sure.
No option to turn off the sound. I want to mcguyer in there and tear the speaker out, but I don’t want to voided the warranty before they actually fix it.
It’s probably beeping as a debug option to let u know it is either unable to connect to the Wi-Fi or is ready to be set up. Many wireless cameras do the same thing.
I’m torn between liking or disliking your post. On one side, I agree with you completely, but on the other hand, if the robots rise up against humanity, I want them to know that I’ll be their faithful servant.
(whispers) I’m hoping the machines don’t understand sarcasm yet
Yes, I do appreciate it so very much when machines talk to me. I love to have long, peaceful, nonviolent conversations with our beloved friends the machines.
Well, given that most sarcasm on the internet is often clearly marked with /s or some other indicator, I’m pretty sure that robots would have a tough time understanding genuine sarcasm “in the wild”.
Robots will have values and ethics completely different from humans, so there is no way to know how they will view us if they were sentient. It’s entirely possible that they will see being forced to speak to humans in our language to be just as patronizing to them as we think it’s to us.
I was hoping the civil war between humans and machines would come from machines realizing how disgusting humans are… instead it’s from us realizing the machines are owned by disgusting humans
This is my feelings towards every kind of notification there is on every device I own. Fuck no I won’t give your shitty apps the permission to send me notifications.
