mabel

What you see with Mabel in the paper is a fad name coming back.

If Aunt Mabel had a heart attack, you'd find out about it, just not 500ms after it happened.

Pick up to engage the battery powered talk circuit and you're chatting with Mabel like it's 1915.

The font isn't strictly required – Mabel functions just fine without it, you will just have one or two characters that don't render properly.

I once took a tour of the Mabel Tainter theater in Menomonie Wisconsin.

Note to self: not sure Mabel would be too keen if I integrated Claude Opus 4 into Wabbit S2[0] and she ended up being blackmailed by the AI.

Designed by Mabel Addis and programmed by William McKay in a research project that started in 1964, The Sumerian Game is the granfather of today's strategy, management and simulation turn based games.

So this model works well - rather than paying $10k for a feature that only works for 100 hours a year you spend on the freeway, and not the 400 hours you spend on your dirt road in smallville, you get the benefit when you go and visit Aunt Mabel without having to pay a large fee upfront.

I've already found myself sharing far more on G+ (despite the fact only a small part of my social graph is there yet) just because I'm not worried that Aunt Mabel will find this offensive, or I'll have to field questions from Uncle Earl about what that tech link meant.

There was no "Mabel", no swimming, and no asphyxiation.

My favorite bit from this series was early on when they were about to call Mabel but he hesitates and says "Calls bother them for some reason".

The good old argument that someone can't sit through a lecture without connectivity "in case Auntie Mabel dies", but of course it's just a cover for having phone access for other things.

"Mabel" may owe some popularity thanks to Selena Gomez's character in "Only Murders In The Building."

This is the first week of testing in Mabel's hands (lots of feedback already), and Mabel's first trip abroad with it is next week.

The name that inspired the project is Mabel.

Sesame AI[1], and improving existing features based on feedback over the last few weeks of Mabel's testing.
