        Any coder can decide what sounds are emitted from their phones. Simply edit out the line or turn off the audio output.

        Welcome to a world that includes Linux. As justification of my actions, would argue these features of emitting sounds after every action is addictive and since i own the phone can choose what runs on it. The only sound want is from A/V calls. Govts ability to regulate everything is not unlimited and absolute.

        Especially if there is a coder involved.

        Actually going to try that. But even then the fish is not designed to wrap the rice like a bag.

        Moving a sushi and getting it into the mouth, with two sticks, without it breaking, consistently, is really a mystery.

        I could coding anything. But sushi is challenging.
