Things free-software actually needs a replacement for, rather than more Alexa clones:

- the thing that remembers your wifi networks & passwords across Android devices

- the thing in GMail that notices "due dates" and creates optional reminders for them

- The thing that notices when email & SMS contacts have the same name and provides a button to merge them

- Yours?

When I bought the LP of #Quadrophenia by #TheWho many decades ago, I always loved the second track entitled #TheRealMe but for years I couldn’t quite put my finger on why I liked it so much. Then it dawned on me that it basically an incredible #drum solo and #bass solo with some lyrics and a guitar playing in the background.

Bought a new drive to replace the disk I just lost... and guess what: DOA - dead on arrival.

My luck with new hardware knows no boundaries.
