Maybe the constantly flushing toilet would drain the room.

Don't you dare! Toaster loves all people, especially the Master... oh I see it now.

I know you are, but what am I?

I can't draw worth a damn. Anyway, here's Vin Diesel.

It occurred to me that I might be wrong about the locally stored database, so I conducted an experiment.

I put my phone in airplane mode, then went to my record player and played a song with my phone sitting nearby. Within a minute, my phone correctly displayed the currently playing song, despite having no connectivity whatsoever. This proves that there is a local database of songs against which the service can compare what it hears. Obviously the database does not include every song ever written, that would be ridiculous.

I never claimed that the phone was not listening, it has to listen in some way to recognize music. What I did claim, and have now proven, is that it can identify songs without sending the audio to Google.

IIRC, it uses a database of common and popular songs stored locally on your phone (possibly adapted to what Google knows about your taste in music, idk) and only goes online for matches when you do a manual song search.

I don't know what's going on.

What do they do with it now? OP's death tunnel is being filled back in with dirt and coffins, so there should be 1 coffin's worth of displaced dirt per body, the same as with current burial practices.

Mnemonic or Silverhand?
