    Seems like the sword and shield icons are backwards in terms of who started the war. And “bloc” vs “coalition” lol. Wonder how much of this came out of the prompter’s mind versus t…

    While I have no idea of the actual outcome, I’ll muddle through the extra step + thinking to opt-out where possible. My own personal bend is that I do not want to be sold anything …

    Our (on-the-way-out) mayor likes it! "I said, Imagine how cool would this be if we had like, a 10-foot wall. It’s interactive and it’s historical. And you could talk to Martin Luth…

    That's funny you mention that—very similar experience here. My partner and I often get a laugh out of the strange occasional errors. Things like responding with "…huh?", and then c…

    > Siri sucks. I’m surely in a niche group here, but I’m appreciating Siri more and more. It’s a mostly competent tool for basic operations and simple questions. For something I int…
