I think it’s silly to speak in full sentences to home assistants, when I really just use 5 commands most of the time.

It would be snappier to make weird sounds, produced by snapping ones tongue e.g., like some African tribes use in their languages.

Or any other weird, short sounds.

It might be more satisfying to use, and probably funnier.

Also, over the course of a few years this might find its way into everyday spoken language. Which would be wonderfully dystopian and maybe funny.

      I love how when you put an idea out in the world, someone will surprise you and just make it ten times better than you could have ever imagined

          Overplayed and over hyped, hearing their music frequently reminds me of their fans who gush about how so very significant and genius everything they ever did was. Their fandom drags down their music for me, and their music is just OK without all the social context of when it was made.

              There are quite a few things I enjoy in music, literature, and hobbies where a significant portion of the people who also like it are unbearable by making it part of their personality instead of something they enjoy. Anyone who identifies as a fan of something instead of saying they enjoy something is likely to be unbearable about that thing.

              I enjoy some Dylan songs because of the melody since the words are gibberish to me.
