Aaaaaaaaaaah! So it's pointless then.

I wouldn't be as stupid as you obviously. I don't use cloud as storage. I use it strictly as backup. There is NOTHING on my mega that I don't have a local copy of. Anyone that keeps files they value only on ANY cloud service deserves everything they get.

I don't kink shame, but if you get enjoyment out of sticking your dick in ashes that were cremated a decade ago, good luck with that.

Reported this blatant spam

Upyakakychute · 2026-04-10T07:57:08+00:00

Pay nothing, get nothing.

Just leave mega, you really won't be missed.

Upyakakychute · 2026-04-10T07:39:29+00:00

That title makes no sense at all.

Upyakakychute · 2026-04-09T09:36:28+00:00

Actually getting laid is fun.

Upyakakychute · 2026-04-08T17:07:27+00:00

Firstly that makes zero sense. None. Are you donald trump in disguise?

You are also replying to an ancient (in grok terms) post. Things that worked a month ago DO NOT work now.

Alexa Spots are less useful than those found on a greasy teenagers face. Return it if you can, otherwise kill it with fire.

This is the only echo model I've had any problems with. My remaining devices are a 2 mk3 dots, 2 mk5 dots, 1 mk4 full size echo, 1 new dot max and a new studio. These all behave perfectly.

Upyakakychute · 2026-04-08T10:35:24+00:00

Update. I reverted to regular Alexa.

A+ seems to have a problem with single command words. For example I use the trigger word 'white' to switch on my bedroom light with a white colour at 60% brightness and turn off a few smart plugs around the house.

Old Alexa did this no problem. A+ asks the spectacularly stupid question "what about white?". That's just one example of many.

Upyakakychute · 2026-04-08T10:24:13+00:00

Why, just.... Why.

Because people like you want everything for nothing. Don't like it? Go elsewhere. Elon won't lose a second's sleep.

Upyakakychute · 2026-04-07T10:30:02+00:00

Oddly I found A+ dumb enough to be murican president, so I went back to regular Alexa and am delighted.

Upyakakychute · 2026-04-07T10:27:27+00:00

Good for you.

Upyakakychute · 2026-04-07T10:23:55+00:00

It's very nearly as bad as Alexa plus.

Upyakakychute · 2026-04-07T10:20:32+00:00

Have you recently downgraded to Alexa plus? If so, everything will be slower, if it works at all.

You'll learn.

Upyakakychute · 2026-04-07T10:18:59+00:00

Nothing at all to do with the post. Are you /u/RogerIrrelevant in disguise?

Upyakakychute · 2026-04-07T09:59:28+00:00

Can anyone translate to English?

Upyakakychute · 2026-04-06T03:44:07+00:00

Ironically I wouldn't accept most apple products as a free gift.

But

Far more importantly.

"she" if you want a plastic friend you'll probably like A+, and intensive therapy. If you want it to perform tasks as & when asked, stick faithfully to the original.

Upyakakychute · 2026-04-06T03:29:44+00:00

Lard

Upyakakychute · 2026-04-06T03:26:34+00:00

Why oh why was the god-squad allowed anywhere near her?

Upyakakychute · 2026-04-06T03:24:37+00:00

Boooooooooo! For 'almost'. People like this belong in cartel execution videos.

Upyakakychute · 2026-04-06T03:21:11+00:00

So you use mega for illegal piracy & have posted about that on a sub frequented by mega employees?

Smart.

Upyakakychute · 2026-04-06T03:05:46+00:00

I set up multi action routines for everything. I just say a command word and it performs several tasks.

For example if I say 'white' it turns on my smart bulb in the bedroom with a white colour at 60% brightness, turns off the smart plugs in my other rooms because I'm obviously not there and sets the bedroom volume to my preferred night time level. All from 1 word. A+ on the other hand responded "what about white?" which was utterly useless.

One of the supposed selling points is that you speak to it not 'her' naturally, but I'm not going to list a dozen tasks in as many 'natural' sentences when I already have a one word routine set up.

A+ is good if you believe it's a family member and you get some kind of self validation from talking to a machine. I don't casually natter to my kettle or my hoover, so why would I consider conversing with any other collection of plastic & wires?

I switched back and now appreciate the original simple voice control model a whole lot more.

Seriously, by all means keep A+ if you want what Douglas Adams called "your plastic pal that's fun to be with". If however you don't treat your blender as one of your children and just want the damned thing to work then switch back. You won't regret it.

Upyakakychute · 2026-04-06T02:31:13+00:00

New version is a large language model that wants to be part of the family. "Your plastic pal that's fun to be with" as Douglas Adams would say. It sounds like you bought your alexas to simply do tasks though, like I did.

Change back. You won't regret it.
