I forgot how frustrating Dragon NatSpeak is when it's still learning your voice.
Or maybe it's just because I'm a naturally quiet person, was raised to be quiet, and find it physically impossible to raise my voice past a certain point without sounding like I'm raging mad (causing my roommates to check on me) on top of that, but if I get 'Microphone Check Failed' one more time, I might cry (and this is after it's already adjusted for my volume). It'll dictate what I say fine...after an hour+ of reading to it for it to update my profile data so that I won't/shouldn't have to fight with it in the first place, crying when it won't register what I've said, and then another hour of beating it into submission, and even then, it's really hit and miss.
I mean, I know it's Speech Recognition/Speech-to-Text software and it takes a while for it to get your speech patterns accurately and all, but you would think, you would think, that after a month and a half, it at least could tell the difference between 'Frustrating' and 'Recognize'.
Goddammit Dragon, I got you because I was told you'd make things easier - what with my dyslexia and dysgraphia making my hand writing nearly illegible and typing take forever (or is the slow typing a result of my CP mildly affecting my hands? I can't remember, maybe it's both?), but whatever.
At least it's got the hang of the 'Select all' and 'Backspace' commands. -_-
