I’m married to a person who needs to use one medically - my wife has no sensation from her knees to her feet, and so cannot use pedals to control a car. However, she can drive by using one of these knobs to steer, and a second adaption which maps the brakes, accelerator and indicators to a handle she operates with the…

1) Don't be afraid to drop "traditional" elements - we had no cake, no music/dancing at the reception. No bridesmaids. Stuff like that.

I have a Tasker profile based off my calendar.

Jeeves is a bit overused.

It's cringeworthy when it's an opposite sex voice - particularly the male "user" with a female voice as in that video.

But a politer one that only tells me about the stuff I want to know. It doesn't, and hopefully never will, nag me to get my hair cut, eat my greens or whatever :P
