Also add Liquid Glass, it strains the eyes.

Even siri got worse, when I say call <nickname of my gitfriend> now it does some location based search, and calls sonebody, when near home it is a doctor, when on the other side of the river it is a flower shop, at othe rplaces other random non-contacts, with a contact having the sting it used for search, as her nickname is always part of the called person… It used to work flawlessly as expected…

I would be fine with Siri actually if if could handle simple fixed phrase based task, no AI, as it could a few years ago.

The most frustrating aspect of Siri's quality decline is that super-basic things inexplicably stop working. For years I have been able to say "call <wife's name>" and Siri called my wife. A couple weeks ago she started dialing another contact I haven't talked to in 15 years with a similarly-pronounced name (but different spelling). I had to delete the old contact to stop that behavior from happening.

I mainly use Siri for cooking timers, I really enjoyed the brief period of time where it started flipping 50 minutes and 15 minutes. And then went back, for some reason, but not after I started using things like 14 minutes and 59 seconds or 51 minutes to make it think just a little harder.

First thing I did when I got an iPhone was disable Siri as much as possible.

They said it was Apple Intelligence - they didn't tell you how intelligent it would be!

I’m not sure if gitfriend is a typo.

I’m lonely and really want a gitfriend to push and merge with! Please tell the story of how you got one!

I'm afraid of commits.

It always ends up with a lot of blaming.

In extreme cases, it terminates with a bisect.

You could wait a bit after forking.

Squash commit can fix the conflict.

Doesn't work if there are too many diffs

Diffs can always be patched up.

I'll sometimes ask Siri to take me to a local address, and it'll instead pick some random address in a city 2500+ miles away and start routing me there like that's obviously what i wanted

From an outsider that used their products years ago.

Apple has shifted from working to produce quality to working to maximize profit ... when it comes to software.

The only thing that would change this would be a new CEO or Apple hemorrhaging money with more people buy alternative solutions.

To be fair ... Microsoft is in the same down hill spiral in quality and the IT industry staying with them allows form the to do this.

Steve would've never let this shit happen.

This is a way that Tim has been failing Apple and its customers. The quality just isn't there any more. "It [doesnt] just work". And the UX is increasingly terrible.

I have also been considering switching to Android. The Apple tax is decreasingly worth it when it don't buy quality.
