How do you type w/o touching?

Voice to text......comes up with some pretty funny stuff sometimes.

That's an understatement.

Quote: You talking about auto-correct? With all the mistakes it makes, I'm not sure I'd want to use it, anyway.

I have noticed these two laptops have voice recognition, though I've never attempted to use it. Does that allow the use of talk-to-text? I thought it had something to do with not being able to log on if it doesn't recognize the voice (assuming it's activated).

I've never tried it on a desktop or laptop computer before. Most cellular devices these days have a talk-to-text or a voice-to-text feature. It allows you to dictate the words instead of typing them but then you have to deal with what the "machine" thinks you said vs what you actually said.

Yes, voice typing can make you take a toilet verses a pullet to the vet.

I usually key stuff in verses the voice typing because of the errors. It is too much of a hassle. Of course, that was one of the times I did it on the fly.
