    Google assistant has gotten worse and worse but “Hey Google, how many tablespoons are in x” is pretty helpful

        Does that plug into assistant speakers?

        I’m not a massive fan of it but hands free cooking questions are nice. I use DDG for my browser search

          I’m sure some open hardware hacker could get DuckDuckGo or qalc to work through their home-soldered voice-controlled assistant.

          But other than that, no. For what it’s worth, I spend 2 to 3 seconds for each conversion through the terminal when preparing a recipe, or about 15 seconds unlocking my phone and looking it up in DDG on the spot
