1. The forum & main site will stay up indefinitely after MTurk shuts down in case anyone needs anything. I assume a handful of things will break after MTurk vaporizes & I'll fix it as fast as I can to keep the two main parts of the site online.

    My Alexa constantly responds to commands that I'm not even making. She's been pretty much demoted to just turning on and off the lights now. Occasionally a cooking timer but 9 times out of 10 she hears 15 minutes as 50. Thankfully, there's only been one burnt food incident....

    I know with Alexa, official Amazon commercials have some sort of undetectable high pitch frequency noise that makes sure that Echo devices don't listen and respond to the commercials.

    I'm still looking forward to when you can change the name to something other than the current four choices... I'm going to rename mine "dammit bobby".
