My dishes are well read

If you read my blog at all, you probably already know of the fun I have with an audio recorder and the Speech Analysis feature of Adobe Soundbooth.  I record common everyday things and let Soundbooth try to figure out what it is saying if it were a human voice.  Well this time I recorded my dishwasher.  Here’s what it had to say:

A,
the likelihood of your,
your your,
your book,
Good book.
Toure you know,
a write a.

(Note, all I’ve edited in the direct speech translation was the removal of duplicate words, and I added the punctuation)

Interestingly, Toure is an American writer! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toure.  So apparently my dishwasher is recommending novels. I just haven’t been listening.

PC Load Letter!?

Thanks to hackers, it has come to this. Windows 7 has to ask me if I trust my printer:
021010
Well, I’m not sure if I trust my printer. It’s never stolen my money before, or verbally abused me. But it does run out of ink suspiciously fast, so maybe it’s cheating on me with some other user!?  I’m just so conflicted.
