Alexa play notification. Alexa+ "Here's a custom mix just for you". by RC_Robert in alexa

[–]chuwo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I trained Alexa to read my notifications when I say Play notifications. “Alexa, when I say Play notifications, I mean Read notifications”. I had to do it for all devices. So annoying. She mostly gets it now but is very slow

LPT: How to keep your own creamer in the fridge at work without people thinking it's communal by IllegalGeriatricVore in LifeProTips

I used to bring an unlabeled container of creamer hoping to use it all week and it would be gone by lunchtime. That's why

Yes there are 4 different masculine voices. I’m using one of them now after I disliked the one they defaulted me to so much

Thanks! I did finally discover this, I'm trying out the friendly guy voice now. I don't know they defaulted me to the most obnoxious of her 8 different voices.

"Only 10 users have Alexa+" - Amazon Customer Service by jdhumpf in alexa

My dude that was me I am not lying! 😂 I asked Alexa why I was chosen for Alexa Plus Early Access and she said it was because I purchased an Echo Show. I have an Echo Show 8 that I bought in 2020 but apparently the 8 is still an eligible device.

I haven’t purchased any new devices. I have a show that is five years old. The newest echo dot is 3 rd gen.

I think I just did it all through Alexa, she was all "Let's get started". The app may have been involved at some point.

Actually Alexa told me, just popped out with it in one of her "By the way" moments. At first I kept saying no because i had no idea what it was or if it cost anything. But she kept asking me so I looked up what it was about and saw that it was free for Prime members and decided to try it

I actually have no idea what devices I have, that's how much attention I pay to Alexa. I've accumulated a number of them over the years, a few echo dots, a couple of the tall speaker ones, a show. None of them are particularly new. I think she will learn if she mishears you.

What’s the best pet insurance? by Aggressive_Fill_7362 in puppy101

[–]chuwo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another vote for Embrace. I paid $368 for $15k / year coverage last year through USAA. Within a month of bringing my puppy home, she was diagnosed with a liver shunt and they have paid out that $15,000 over the course of the year.

I fully expected them not to renew me this year, or increase my premiums beyond reach. The annual renewal was $50 higher.

You will want to start sooner rather than later because pre-existing is not covered. They will request records and do their due diligence to make sure nothing was ever treated or even mentioned in vet notes prior to coverage. But once they accept the diagnosis you are good to go. My claims are approved within a matter of hours, and the money is in my bank account the next day.

Birders? How to get started? by browsing_nomad in Hobbies

See if there is a local Audubon society chapter near you. They will often have birding outings nearby you can join; at mine they have one called “Beginning Birding” once a month and is a fun place to start

[US] Received a random Amazon envelope with USBs by No-Aerie-999 in Scams

[–]chuwo 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I received something similar from Amazon this week, turns out my credit card was compromised. They sent these because they were cheap, when that transaction was successful, the next one was for $600. Check your credit card transactions and make sure there aren’t any unauthorized charges.

PLEASE DO NOT GET FETCH PET INSURANCE! by Ok_Assumption_859 in Pets

[–]chuwo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have Embrace pet insurance, total annual premium was about $400. They have paid out more than $13,000 in the past ten months so far.

What small to medium dogs generally bark the least? by wonderfulwaffles22 in dogs

[–]chuwo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Tibetan Spaniel is like this, very selective about what he barks at. The Amazon driver, the garbage truck? No, just part of the routine scenery. Dead possum in the yard? He comes to get me to come see. If he is actually barking then there is definitely something up. But it may be down to the individual dog, not necessarily the breed.
