That, or maybe they're just helpfully pointing out the advantages of keyboard navigation to their fellow users. I'm about to hit Tab-Return to post this.

Your interpretations of "hum", and "giggle" being different from "chuckle" (tee-hee vs heh heh), are the same as mine. I tried using my mouth open and didn't get significantly different results, though.

I wondered whether pitch might play a role. EDIT: singing in a higher key got me English results, so I guess so? There's no way it would do much locally, but maybe they just wanted to make sure the audio passed to the API has a certain

Glow is a fun show, but once the wrestling show found an audience and the characters found a certain degree of fulfillment in their wrestling roles, the stakes seemed lower to me. I'm happy with the season 3 ending as a show finale. Bu
