You are up tomorrow.
I liked that one, and you are spot on: SELECTION without the first letter: ELECTION.

Ok, didn't expect that - how is Choose = Selection ? - select I can see, but not selection

! = ion
As in... "i" on it's head 
But nah, you make a valid point. I guess "choice" would have worked too.

Alexa: I have added never chips and salsa to your shopping list.

Me: Alexa, what is life?
Alexa: Life is a cellular automata game devised by John Conway in 1970.

Our Google Home is crap. It won't understand things like 'play XX from season 1' or 'play episode X of Y, season 2'

Me: Alexa, what time is it?

I got my Google Home free from Spotify. I want my wife to lead me in a conversation about adult incontinence. If I see ads for adult diapers, I'll know they are listening

I'd keep it in the shed, let them hear nothing but outside noises, and think I'm a tramp.

... and you're left wondering why 12 cartons of premium dog food wagu steak arrived that morning (and a side of whatever raccoons like most.)

Not to worry, AI cannot overcome genuine stupidity.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

Taken literally...it makes sense: If you always have a large supply of chips and salsa already in the house...then you'll never need to have them on your shopping list.
Expect your first crate in a day or two, tops.

Is anyone else addicted to Wish? I got a Trump toilet brush, a dumpling maker and a Swedish flag pin today (and there's a parcel at the post office)

Although I'm very attracted to the idea of owning a certain-coloured-person toilet brush, the "You can't see the site unless you create an account" thing is a bit of a turn-off, for me (I've even blocked pinterest, because I don't like being nagged to hand over personal information).

I am 50 years old. I blew my knees out years ago, walking through San Francisco. This year I did a big trip, I did Wacken Open Air, Brutal Assault and Sabaton Open Air. Afterwards, we rushed to Norway and saw Rammstein. I did all this thinking it's my last chance to physically be able to survive weeks in tents. Probably true.
Rammstein in Oslo was far and away the best gig i have ever seen. Every 2 seconds something blew up, or there were lights or smoke. I can't imagine they'd ever bring all that gear to Australia if they tour, so I was very glad to get to see them in Europe
What was your best gig ever?

1987. Rush at Birmingham NEC. They recorded that concert and released it as A Show of Hands.
|
|
|
|
|
That's pretty cool. I went to the In Flames burger restaurant in Gothenburg. Best burger EVER. It's called 2112
|
|
|
|
|
Well that's interesting. 2112 is NOT the best burger place in town. 
And I thought you Aussies took your barbie more serious than us!
|
|

|

I was going to cite a Rush show also. For me it was on their tour for 2112. The "A Farewell To Kings" tour show was really good too.

Yes at Cobo Hall in 1976. There were concerts on back-to-back nights, so I don't know if it was the one that made it onto Yesshows.
|
|
|
|
|
Awesome. Did a dozen Rush concerts. The one in the second row was the best just due to the perspective.
|
|
|

Finally got to see them in Greenville, SC on their Time Machine tour. Awesome event! I know they deserve to retire after all these years but still sad.
I Google and I know things.
