Oh goodie. The man down the street got a loud mini dirt bike for our small-town streets.
This usually doesn't end up well.
If you can get past his size, the noise annoyance, a mini dirt bike on our small-town streets is dangerous, esp for our town's terrain and blind spots due to its natural topography and ad hoc development style–town planning without any rhyme or reason.
Also, an honorable mention to #autocorrect, which wanted to change topography to typography and won't stop nagging me.
Fix your shitty autocorrect! There’s no such thing at “there’re” so quit putting it into my content.
And how come I get a word suggestion as I type, I click on it, and an entirely different word is inserted that wasn’t even one of the options offered - sometimes not even an English word?!
@peterbutler 😭 It didn’t use to be this bad. I’ve been on an iPhone since the first model. I loved them, even after trying Androids twice, I had to go back. But now? May as well use a flip phone.
@paradoxmo
There really should be a way to (or a policy in place that) prevent more than single-character auto-corrections. The larger ones I've seen are like huh? and I have to go back and "correct" them.
And what stops them from highlighting any auto-correction, so I can verify?
@keraba my phone does highlight autocorrect, but only for one word further than the autocorrected word, after which the highlight disappears. So it’s not very hard to miss it.
#autocorrect auto-incorrected "lips" into "libs" and now I'm offended that my iPhone took the right word and changed it to a trending pejorative that people might apply to me, a pejorative I'd never type out myself.
A human would know better, but an #AI? Ugh! Keep this in mind if you are ever beguiled into using "tools" like #chatGpt. (I'd never stoop so low.)

When I was at school, my English teacher told me not to worry about spelling or grammar because in the future there will always be autocorrect, and for that I am internally grapefruit.
I try to type “sucks” you correct it as “ducks” I try to type “ducks” you correct it to “sucks”. There is no pleasing you is there Apple auto correct is there ? #iphone#apple#funny#autocorrect
