Siri: Gis us a larf
I don't know, Sometimes I think we might be expecting too much from technology. It might be our own reality distortion field. This can be true when you live in the far flung corners of the Green Isle and have a very strange accent and the nearest localisation of Siri is a news reader from the BBC. What Siri does for the Irish is give us a good laugh.
Lat night I was fooling around with the misses iPhone (don't have one myself). She thinks I am one of those pathetic cavemen who spends too much time on the computer (I sometimes have that strange feeling that this could be true). I was seeing if Siri would tell me when the next Mac Pro would arrive aka a discussion on the Mac Pro forum currently.
First thing it did was reply with my name to repeat the question. That made her laugh in a freaked out way. I think Siri used my name because it knows I am the only one who loves Apple. Eventually Siri told me that everything to know about Apple products is on the Applestore. Siri then started calling me asinine. I asked Siri to stop but it insisted on calling me asinine in its superior BBC newsreaders tone of voice (As if those 800 years weren't bad enough). It even went into the address book on the iPhone and changed the company name to asinine in my address card.
By the end of it we were in stitches. Never had such a good laugh in a long time.
By the way I don't really love Apple. I think all our apple stuff thinks I own them (I am the only one who cleans and maintains them) because I have set them all up with one iCloud account for work. We keep finding my mug on her laptop login screen.
