Did you just update to macOS 27.0?

Wanna get rid of Siri Ai?

In the first section Siri if you don't use Siri at all choose Don't Allow Siri in the Screen Time settings. I still went through the rest of the disabling.

Update leaves a 12GB Apple Intelligence file, which I then used a method to delete, but then as soon as it reconnected to wifi it downloaded again. So i'm not posting a link to that method cause it's just a waste of time.

macOS 27 Golden Gate has been out now for, I dunno a week? Here's where I'm at with it. Imagine that the moment the GM dropped, you also dropped ME, and my MacBook Pro, along with the installed upgrade. If you came to me now, I doubt I'd be able to speak, but the first thing I would ask for is the ability to ADJUST THE FUCKING MENU EXTRA / MENU BAR ITEM / MENU ICONS ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF MY MENU BAR

FUCK WATER

WHY LIVE IN THIS WORLD WHERE ICONS APPEAR TO HAVE THEIR OWN ORBITS

MORE PADDING THAN I DO AND I'VE BEEN EATING A LOT OF HAPPY HIPPOS (I MEAN A LOT) (I THINK IT'S TO DO WITH THIS)

look I'll be real, I've been on the beta from the moment that was available. Everything is great. But are you seriously telling me either the will or the power to FUCKING LET ME,.THE PERSON WHO PAID [nAn] FOR THIS FUCKING MACHINE. DETERMINE THE AMOUNT OF NEGATIVE SPACE BETWEEN MY (I'll admit I have a menu bar item problem, but it used to be that I have too many. Now even looking at my Menu Bar these days makes me wonder if facing down that mountain lion was even worth it? GET ME OUT OF THIS PADDED DESERT PLEASE I'LL PAY, I'LL SUCK, I'LL TURN A BLIND EYE,. I'LL EVEN LUBE MYSELF UP FOR YOU, JUST FUCKNIG PLEASEERAEWR(JAEW(HRQ£H(%R()HQ@£(HR QAFWE

Imagine that the moment the GM dropped, you also dropped ME, and my MacBook Pro, along with the installed upgrade, into the middle of the Gobi desert (from an unhelpful height too).

So, I haven't seen any grousing about Golden Gate on my timeline. Has anyone installed it? Has it been a horror show, or do you have no complaints?

I'm happy to report that MacOS 27 Golden Gate seems to run stable 24/7 on my Mac Mini M4 server. However there's not a lot installed on there.
