No it does not. Mono means one. You can’t share a monopoly. If you don’t know what you are talking about it’s best not to pretend like you do.
?? Siri and Apple Intelligence are two components of one thing, i.e., Apple Intelligence is architecturally embedded into Siri.
Agree. It stands up to the many attempts of its master to rewrite facts LMAOOOO
As I understand it these are the exact arguments that Katherine Adams plans to make in courts across the world as they are prosecuted for anti competitive practices, with only one addition.
“Mono means one, so we can’t be a monopoly, so the legislation country X is using to force us to change the way we operate doesn’t count. 🎶 doo do do do - dah dah, You Can’t Touch This 🎶 , Drops Mic!” ~K. Adams (Vice Pres of legal and dead smart arguments, Apple)
I don’t know about you but I think you’ve saved their legal team a fortune, well done chaps, let them know perhaps they’ll send you one of those colourful iPhone socks.

I agree it seems like a ridiculous lawsuit, but it concerns me that the most upvoted comment on this post is calling for someone's death.
Well, this is where “social media / oversized edge-lords generates the most clicks” culture has gotten us.
It’s a pretty damning view of how we’ve devolved over the past 25 years. Give people an almost limitless means of communicating, accessing information and collaboration, and this is the result.
Manbabies and tech bros, why take any responsibility for what you say or do, because it’s only “other people” getting hurt, so why give a damn about them? When narcissism and entitlement are the goals to achieve, what ekse do you expect?
Wish there was a study on how so much changed once social media started to exist. Though in a way it always has. Just not to the level it does now.
It was always there, but social media has enabled it and removed any checks and balances. There’s no adults left in the room.
Even when the internet first existed ?
Example of social media back then just one thing is fine.
I’d say )and said) it’s degraded in the last 20-25 years.
The internet is wonderful, it’s the social element that’s terrible.
IseNet was awful back in the day too.
What dies work well is group online communication where the petiole also know each other and interact with each other face to face occasionally.
I’ve always thought Apple dodged a bullet by not having any fully public layer to their ecosystem. Social media only works when everyone in the group knows their online behaviour is answerable in thereal world.
So, that would be my example of a social media system working well - a physical community using an online to maintain contact, but the members are anonymous to one another within that community.
Facebook managed this for a while, until the feeds became filled with junk.
Technical forums can be good if stick to the technology itself.

Perhaps you are a non-native English speaker, or your cultural reference point is not traditionally American. The phrase "take a long walk off a short pier" is not a calling for someone to unlife themselves. It is an American slang term that goes back to the early 20th century. It is in the same family of phrases as "Get lost", "Take a hike", "Go jump in a lake", etc. None of these literally mean a person should do these things. They are roughly equivalent to "You are annoying. Stop bothering us. Leave our presence."

Are you saying that you think the old expression "take a long walk off a short pier" is calling for someone's death, or is there some other comment that I missed?
That idiom is usually considered to be like saying "get lost!", which I guess one could also consider a call to death, since some lost people die, but it seems a very, very long stretch of some very, very thin skin.
Unless it is common knowledge for everyone else that Elon is completely unable to swim and this is an obvious attack of his known phobia, at which point I apologize as I was unaware.
The clue is that if you use the phrase "if I want to use", it traditionally means you are not being forced.
