I’ll go one farther - unless it’s my doc, my wife, or my boss, I’m neither answering the call nor listening to the voicemail. That’s what easily skimmable voicemail transcription is for…

I don’t love the privacy implications of transcribed voicemail, ofc, but it’s better for my own privacy/threat model than answering the phone to robots, scammers, and etc. It’s also a hell of a lot better for my mental health, vs listening to them.

Just spit out my tea all over today’s todo list. Thanks, I needed that laugh.

Meh, different strokes for… Ah, hell, that wasn’t quite the similie I wanted given the context…

Arguably, if that were the motivation, they could just as easily have landed on MissKey. That one is, to MK’s credit, human :)

MK also seems to have originated in Japan, so the mascot at https://misskey-hub.net/en/ is not at all unexpected.

Edit: And pretty damn tame as these things go lol

Hemlock comes to mind, as with or without your proffered grain of salt, it can be eaten but is definitely not edible. Those defs are posted in a non-pedantic way above, incidentally.

Also, thanks for the chance to use the word ‘proffered’ in conversation, it’s vanishingly rarely used outside the legal field.
