    I’m not going back to typing my grocery list manually. So I’m fucked in that part of my life.

    Edit: thank you to everybody suggesting privacy preserving methods of grocery list maintenance. I’ve already considered them.

      I use „tasks“ for that. When i prepare to go grocery shopping I go to my fridge, open the completed „shopping“ tasks list and uncomplete what is empty. I then complete them again in the mall. Of course the list is hosted on my server.

      You can also have a barcode scanner to automate the „done“ action. You could also put in a timer to automatically make things undone if they need regular buying.

      In any case, using ai voice recognition for this is a massive waste of computing power for things that can be done by simple if else statements. Of course it is also a massive privacy invasion if you use big tech stuff for it.

        A man of culture I see.

        Selfhosted task list. There is where we stand united my friend.

      so voice typing, huh? not really sure it matters at this point. I use an open source keyboard, but my inputs go right into the OS of the worlds largest spy organization.

      on the other hand… this is a great opportunity to hone your handwriting and memory skills.

      You don’t write your grocery list on a bit of paper stuck to the fridge…? I thought that was downright universal
