People saying 'well it must work, they're still using it'. Really? I am one of those people that as soon as I smell 'sales' talk I shut it down. If it is a phone call, just put the phone down. If it's first a h

It's a fair question. Out of an abundance of caution I just toggled it. Definitely on. In fact, in doing so I have today noticed some correlation between swapping between Shazam and Soundhound and mic behaviour. That is to say, Shazam

I've championed Soundhound but it has literally stopped working (finding any tune) on my iphone. I've reinstalled, still nothing. It does not appear to 'hear' anything.

I've see those figures many times. They represent what they say, literally. No one is suggesting rising temperatures per se are going so high we will all frazzle and not freeze. But the global consequences of said rise means vast displ

We have yet to see, and perhaps never will, an event such as the Olympics devoid of physical security, in the form of armed patrols, despite an abundance of 'intelligence'. The aim of installing the so-called a.i. security is to t

I know a comedian spoke the words, but what is the actual related joke?
