That’s what I thought it was when I first read about - I thought it was going to take routing the audio through the keyboard… But then it didn’t, and I realized that it was responding to my typing on it.
But now I am wondering if the system sees the microphone… That could be a very bad thing. I definitely don’t want to have a microphone on my computer that I don’t have control over. Having a cell phone is bad enough.
And yeah, the jokes about everything becoming an SMTP server seems to have morphed into everything is a camera / microphone now.
I just watched Dune tonight and I have to say, I was not disappointed.
However, if I put my “aktshully” hat on. There can’t be a keycap set for Dune because computers are prohibited by stricture from the Orange Catholic Bible. Hence the need for Mentats like Thufir Hawat.
Understanding postal service routing and logistics is the thing of nightmares. Within about a 25 mile radius of me there are at least 6 post offices. Of those six, five of them route to City A, while one routes to City B. City A is around 40 miles away, City B is 60 miles away…
but, here’s the kicker: mail routed through City B will consistently reach it’s destination quicker than mail routed through City A… That includes mail that has a destination of City A.
This has to be one of the oddest assortment of novelties ever. I know this is supposed to be like GMK Rudy, despite being named like it should be a rip off of GMK Denim… But those novelties make no sense.
I guess Route 66 and blue jeans are loosely associated. But the Canadian maple leaf? Did someone in China think that was pot? Smoking some sweet maple, man.
Looks to me like there is a lot of throw-back to the 60’s/70’s rebel / biker culture: peace sign, skull, jeans pocket, etc. But yeah, the Maple leaf is weird, and the barcode one is strange…and the most confusing of them all (to me at least) is the “sale” button – who associates consumerism with 60’s hippies?
