Not sure what you are using, but speech recognition is amazing on my android device and has been for years. I rarely ever type anything into my phone anymore. It's a usability gamechanger.
> Not sure what you are using, but speech recognition is amazing on my android device and has been for years. Let me guess: white male native English speaker? Your Android device was built by you and trained for you specifically.
anyway, that tangent aside, considering how many of the individual elements in a phone tend to be sourced from Asian countries. I guess not not using my phone, im actively subverting and appropriating Asian culture(s because yes i know there's more than one and I was getting too into character—
anyway i know that totally isn't your implication, I was just taking the expression that I perceived and the meaning I inferred from to the logical extreme to demonstrate my distaste with this whole white male native speaker archetype. sure I would certainly count myself as one, but those are just a bunch of adjectives serving to do nothing more than to elucidate what it means about you to think these things. i can certainly tell you that I and the majority of white male native speaking individuals are nothing like the stereotype you're trying to evoke. we aren't all scientists, aren't all engineers, we aren't all beauticians, and no single one of us lives in a world that is solely their own. Every part of society and the corpus of human knowledge has really just been a super long drawn out game of telephone where the telephone line never terminates and just loops back around. That and there are several telephones attached to it in such a way that physically proximate ones will simultaneously reproduce the vibration traveling across the telephone line. perhaps a bit abstruse
but I think it brings home an important point. namely, i don't think a white person had their hands on this device between it being sealed and being opened at the store.
