anyone using new mac dictation?

been trying it. i need to do some writing.
i think it might work for me for outlining, spitballing, but unless i can get into some of the auto correct controls, it seems like a whole lot more trouble to me, because i am a snot with my own rules.

trudged through the usual suspects, and did manage to turn it off in general, but i cant find the specific dictation controls.

also if anyone has tips on how to train the damn thing. its not doing a real great job so far, even if i go somewhere quite, instead of in my favorite writing chair. lots of birdsong here. it seems to filter it out, but i think it is applying the same filter to my voice. loosing the sharp notes. i actually beachballed it yesterday trying to get it to spell rape.

nice to have a shiny new mac, tho. a little early b-day present to myself, and a shove to get some writing done.
