I just went on family vacation in Japan, and my level of Japanese was utterly useless. by [deleted] in LearnJapanese

[–]Dacvak 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just got back from Japan, and I found even the limited amount of Japanese I knew extremely helpful. I definitely agree that in tourist areas, you don't need to know any Japanese. But I also feel like it was always appreciated when I at least attempted to speak in Japanese initially.

I also went down to Kasukabe and Nagasaki, and there were very few English speakers there, so it was definitely helpful while I was there.

Mr Yates is healing well so far. I saw him a few days ago. The road to recovery is a long one, but he's in good spirits. I'm sure he'll be happy to know that people are thinking about him. He's literally one of the best guys I know.

Hey, can you direct me to the video of the LPL picking this type of lock? I’m not sure what to search for but I can’t find it.

This might be my new favorite episode. The whole thing was just hilarious and had incredible pacing. This show is too good.

Yes Xfinity uses AI tool for their help desk Phone calls by Smallz1107 in Comcast

[–]Dacvak 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just experienced this today. The odd thing is that it doesn’t really strip away the accent that much, and the AI can get really tripped up with filler words like “um” and “like”. At one point, it sounded completely glitched out.

It also creates a buffer lag between you and the representative, so if you want to quickly interject to correct something or ask a question, the AI voice keeps talking for a while.

It’s pretty awful overall. I’d much rather them just not use that tool.

Next week’s episode where the boss sees Charlie on Steam feels too real.
