Texting in house (lemm.ee)

Does anyone else text someone else in your own home if they are in another room? Am I just too lazy to go talk to them? Are you like me?

In the olden days we would just scream at the top of our lungs to talk to people in other rooms. I feel like texting captures the lazy spirit without the chaos.

I’m trying to train the rest of our household to use our voice assistant intercom feature.

One of the kids hates that the intercom interrupts whatever she is doing, as far as she is concerned, she ignores everyone else and uses her noise-cancelling earbuds for a reason.

Before anyone asks, I have already trained them to not say anything personal within earshot of the home assistants.
