"Map update was installed" - in a thick NY accent...

[dnigrin]

Has anyone else had the notification saying that a "map update was installed" read aloud, and LOL'ing at the thick New York accent on the word "installed?" As a now-displaced native New Yorker, I always have those updates read aloud by my Taycan, just so I can hear it and have a good chuckle....

BTW us neew jorkers think you Mainers sound funny too!

I’ve not yet adopted the Maine accent, and still proudly represent NYC (with a fair amount of Boston sprinkled in too! ?)

I grew up in Maine, but have been in NY for 26 years and it makes me laugh. my first bookkeeper sounded exactly like that

in a world where all the automated voices we hear are all fairly generic, accent-wise, it’s kind of fun to see an exception like this!

About a decade ago in Malaysia I rode in a friend's Toyota Kijang equipped with a Garmin that imitated Elvis Presley when giving directions.
