    A comment that caught my eye:

        this means even on my tablet I'm gonna be stuck turning my smart lights on and off with Gemini flash lite. So many times when I've run out of COMPUTE, it's reduced itself to flash lite And it would just spit out nonsense BS saying that it can't turn the lights on or off, or it can't set calendar events, when I know for a fact that it can. I'm really looking forward to having to fight to get my bedroom lights to turn on every night now.
    
    I do not recognize the world these people live in.

      yeah i gotta be honest, once i could turn the lights off from a soft button on my phone, anything past that was novelty.

      there are far more important aspects of star trek we should be obsessing over before being able to say “computer, wipe my ass.”

        I had the same opinion, until technology met its match: my wife.

        Her and the Apple Lady talk quite a lot. It's really useful, and we barely use the phone anymore (light switch is even rarer).
