I’ve always been a fan of monogamy and fidelity, but I have strayed now and have two women to deal with. You see, I have recently acquired a second Alexa. I need to figure out how to rename one of them, because they both respond in slightly delayed stereo when I call their name --or even use it in passing conversation not related to them. I have to whisper quietly in their “ear” if I want only one to respond, and you might imagine how weird that appears if someone is visiting me while I do that. I’ve tried separating them like I did with fighting children. It works to some extent, but inevitably one hears something and wants in on whatever is going on with the other. I’ve looked into renaming them, but there are only two more choices…”computer” and “Amazon.” Both of those words come up in conversation to be ‘overheard’ and responded to more often than even the name Alexa does. I need to name one something like “Rumplestiltskin.” It would also be nice to have a man’s name to choose from so that all this servitude Alexa provides isn’t viewed as a sexist issue. I’d hate to be brought up on some charge of discrimination by a fired up left-wing group of women. So, at this moment I’m stumped and a perfect solution escapes me. I guess whispering in Alexa’s ear is all I can do for now.
