I tried to say, "I'm a functional adult," but my phone changed it to "fictional adult," and I feel like that's more accurate.

(It's #HootinTootinTuesday again! Post some jokes or funny memes under this hashtag today, and bring lots of smiles to #Mastodon.)

Comic showing a very startled horse. Behind him, a man with the back half of a two-person horse costume has his head in the horse's backside. Standing behind the man is another man in the front half of that horse costume. He says, "Dude. I'm over here."

I'm trying to type the word `part.revision` in our wiki because this is a database field I'm trying to document.

It keeps #autocorrect ing this to `part. Revision` because it thinks I'm actually starting a new sentence and am too stupid to add the space and capitalize the first word.

Jules Winnfield (played by badass Samuel L Jackson) in Pulp Fiction in the "Say that one more time, I DARE YOU" scene, where Jules has his hand cannon aimed at Brett's head and dares him to say "What?" again.

JULES
Say "What" again! C'mon, say "What"
again! I dare ya, I double dare ya
motherfucker, say "What" one more
goddamn time!

Except here Jules is about to shoot his computer for auto correcting what he typed one more time.

@CheapPontoon You can’t rewrite history, but you can make it up. #autocorrect

@littlemiao I believe in #makeyourownerrors, so I switched #autocorrect off.

I'm back on GrapheneOS ☺️

I settled for an Google Pixel 10 Pro XL.
Will try to keep that for two years but we'll see. I have a tendency to buy new hardware quite often. (way too often).

And of course I started donating to GrapheneOS again.

Today I found a great keyboard that has support for auto correct in many languages, my included (Swedish).
The keyboard app is HeliBoard, an actively developed fork of OpenBoard.

So far I've found one app that does not really work with GrapheneOS and that is a car parking app (Parkering Göteborg), but I haven't used that in ages and I've read that there should be other ways to pay for parking in Göteborg when / if I go there again.

@JenYetAgain @gareth This proved so popular/ that it became a staple of the show. #autocorrect

I hate the way #autocorrect manages to choose the wrong word.

The price of intelligibility is consonant vigilante.

Who at #Samsung thought it was a good idea for #autocorrect to change words after I've pressed enter? What a terrible terrible idea.

iOS 26.2+ keyboard’s autocorrect now uses an LLM to predict your next word (which it technically has always done to a certain extent). The difference now is each attempted keypress is augmented to try and fit to that predicted word.

Sigh. After all these years, Apple’s autocorrect still does this. Yet, I’ve never ever used the word in any of my typing or work … I guess it’s trying to tell me something.

My wish list for #wwdc this year:

1) Revert #LiquidGlass, it's a cool idea but it's just unusable.
2) Fix #autocorrect... seriously. I spend way too long fixing text on my devices and for the love of God stop retroactively changing words after I've typed the next one.
3) Make #Siri useful again... actually useful. She's currently an egg timer and her other uses could be replaced by NFC tags / smart button. It's embarrassing.
4) Stop with #AppleIntelligence. Just, stop.

5) Fix end user prompts. Just stop popping up dialogs asking me to accept this, or elevate that. It's so tiring and just trains users to click the accept button for everything ... have you guys even watched your own adverts mocking Windows #UAC??
6) Relocate to Ireland. US #CloudAct means iCloud is untrustworthy, I'll be migrating away and recommending others do the same.
7) Keep going with Apple Silicon, your hardware is killing it.

Thanks for coming to my ted talk.

Look at all the ducks I don’t give #autocorrect

You know that feeling when you type a word correctly, press the send button, and a split second before iOS detects you’re leaving the text field and applies a bad autocorrect just before sending?

It happens moments before the phone shatters against the wall.

This is the most insidious bug on #iOS – the #iPhone keyboard *deliberately* mistypes the letters you press 😡:
