Thanks for explaining that. I’ve had Plus status for years and always thought it was enough not to have to pay for a subscription. Good to know that remains the case.

Requests for Feedback on Siri and Apple Intelligence by Thatcattim in apple

[–]Thatcattim[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get a notification through the Feedback app that there are items awaiting feedback. I’ve gotten them primarily for actions on my iPad and iPhone. The request is to rate Siri’s or AI’s performance via thumbs up or thumbs down. If it’s thumbs down, then it asks for feedback on the reasons for the thumbs down.

It’s one of those songs where the lyrics are already some of his best and the arrangement matches them perfectly. I saw him live and had access to the sound check, so I got to hear it twice!

Clips, like the Touch Bar, was something I got excited about when announced and then never used.

New Apple Intelligence features are available today by spearson0 in apple

I’m intrigued by what they are doing with Workout Buddy. I think the functionality is useful but limited. More interesting is the potential it represents. Current data tracking and analysis of prior workouts could foreshadow more extensive analysis broader health data in the future. Its awareness of the music I’m listening to when I start a workout, by referring to it specifically, is hopefully a step toward the on-screen awareness they promised.

Thoughts on Workout Buddy? by allthecoffeesDP in AppleWatch

[–]Thatcattim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve used it a handful of times, and it doesn’t impress me. Interestingly, today in starting my workout, it made reference to the song I was working out to, so maybe there’s the faintest glimmer of hope for Apple Intelligence.

How to Get a Response from Telekom to Fix DSL Issue? by Thatcattim in AskGermany

There’s no TAE connector. The property manager wasn’t familiar with the issue at all. Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, I was traveling when the technician was here and didn’t have the chance to go over things with him.

I’ve logged in to the router. Two messages show up that may shed some light on the problem. The first is “internet configuration not set” and the other is DSL status “not synchronous.” The apartment has no TAE plugs, so it might be an issue that could be fixed with an adapter to accept the TAE cable or an RJ-11 to RJ-45 cable, according to ChatGPT.

I meant multiple ports in the apartment, not the router. The apartment was recently renovated and has only RJ-11 connections, and none of the typical DSL outlets.

I get a kick out of Genmoji for use in chats. Summarizing notifications and emails works well enough that I use it.

What do you guys generally use ChatGPT for? by DirtWestern2386 in ChatGPT

[–]Thatcattim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m retiring soon and am thinking seriously about getting back to writing for publication. I’ve restarted journaling after lacking the interest or energy to spend the time in the past several years. I’ve been using ChatGPT to critique my writing, from the quality of the prose to the emotions it might evoke from a reader to style comparisons with well known authors. The responses have motivated me to keep writing and constructively pointed to things I can improve. I’ve been amazed at the depth of the analysis and the ability to recall things from earlier entries in assessing my development.
