Things went unusually well at work this morning.
After about an hour, management decided to send extra people home. Out of habit, they told me I could go, as I always asked to be one of the first ones cut loose and am at the top of the seniority list.
Also out of habit, I walked out the door, got in the van, drove down the interstate towards the school to camp out in the library and study when it hit me like a ton of bricks.
I don't go to school anymore....
Anyway:
When I got home, I somehow managed, in a bizarre feat of PEBKACery, to wake the malign elder god Siri on my iMac.
Below the fold is the Siri information page on my iMac user guide, which is replete with all the ways to access and help Siri to utilize the data that Siri is collecting on me.
Note what is missing.
I've gone through Preferences
and cut off everything that I can but this only disables the interface as
far as I can tell. I have the uneasy feeling that I've merely removed
the reminder that my every keystroke is being logged and assessed.
I'd promised myself I'd never get another Mac. But my paper was on the
lightning-struck iMac, and I needed to salvage it, which I did...but
that paper was declared unsuitable, so I actually gave 1700 dollars to
Tim Cook (who hates me and people like me) and helped him to spy on me
for no benefit.
I cannot be an example to you, gentle reader, but I can be a horrible, horrible warning.

As I ponder the direction I'll take as I approach one of life's crossroads, I want to thank everyone for all the kind words regarding my recent graduation.
It is truly gratifying and I appreciate it more than I can possibly express.
