I'm not sure if you still can, however, back in 2023 you were able to overload the amazon echo by sending more than one voice request to it within a short timeframe while it was disconnected from the internet. I played with it for a while.

    they have removed that feature. it used to be a little weird with the voicing, so they turned it off. Kind of sad to see it go. You could rely on it, even when the internet went down for your alarms and timers, but not so much anymore, sadly.

    these days you have to be online to do anything. For example if you have google nest hub and have no internet connection the screenreader won't work since it is relying on google cloud to generate speech, so if you touch the screen it will just say something about internet connection problems. So you can't even check the time or anything. Wondering if echo show behaves in a similar way

    Anyway the no internet error on an echo is just a recorded sample, not a tts so that's why it could play it 2 or 3 times at once
