I bet "Bixby" has to do with Samsung's "intelligent voice assistant." "Bixby" is like Amazon's "Alexa."

I have a Samsung TV. Several years ago, my engineers - my sons - set up the big ass TV for us. Now, they both know all too well that I do not want "Alexa" or anything like her in my house - period, end of story. When they were showing me how everything operates with the streaming services and such, I had an issue getting the remote to work properly. My younger son said, "Dad, just push that button, talk to the remote, and ask Bixby to do what it is that you want." My older son was on the other side waving his arms at his brother trying to tell him to be quiet. I asked, in a very severe tone, "Who the F**K is Bixby?!" My older son just dropped his head and said, "Sh!t." Well, needless to say, Bixby got turned off and we have never become acquainted.

Jimmy Failla (FOX) did a bit the other night that I didn't see / hear all of but I think I captured the Gist of it. He said that his son wanted to get a dog and name it BIXBY.

Why? the kid had seen a program where a guy was talking about problems apparently with female of species. Guy said,

"Bixby spending all my money!"
"Bixby wrecking my car!"
"Bixby burning my supper!"

It's a classic if ya get it.
