Say something from the terminal

Today I learned about the say command in macos. You use it like:

$ say something

It may not seem useful, but I use it when I have long scripts to run...

npm run build && say "build done"

...and It can also be used to do fun things...

say abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz # The impossible is possible
say dskfjkhadsfhjkasjhkfgjdasgfj

The most amusing thing about say is that if you ssh into a mac and use it, it'll come out the speakers still. You can mess with people, if you're the kind of person to mess with people.

I don't quite understand what you mean by "ssh into a Mac", I guess I'll just have to search Google then.

Edit: Ok you mean remotely accessing. That would be cool. 😎.
