"You think your watch records the audio around you? No no no. The audio flows into the Secure Enclave, and flowing is definitely not recording because it’s a different word." (https://leancrew.com/all-this/2026/09/new-apple-watches-have...)
This is an incredible untruth to end this article on. MacRumors's own reporting (https://www.macrumors.com/2025/12/19/ios-18-forced-ios-26-up...) showed Apple denying the existing iOS 18.7.3 security update to iPhones, and then shutting down the beta channel workaround the same day that MR drew attention to it, leaving iOS 26.2 as the only option.

"Where do you see the future of Siri and other AI going?"
There's a lot of, I mean..."Siri and other AI," there's Siri, there's the..."Can you ask something a question?" Like, when we were doing Siri, I was blown away by it—having had my Master's in artificial intelligence—so when I saw Siri I thought, "Wait, this is supposed to be 20 years from now, I can't believe it's now." And I kind of thought, you know, Google is...if you go to a library and you look up in the card catalog, "What reference materials do you have related to this," and then you go and look at every one and figure out who's right. Siri is, you ask a reference librarian: "Go find the answer to this question." I think that sort of thing is very very interesting, and the more we can do to have that...now, if you look at AI, I think there's a lot we can do with AI that we're not doing right now that I hope we get to. I can talk about it if you want...?

A tight 30 seconds of wordless, uncut gameplay that intuitively unveils the game mechanics while the simple track, just when it seems overly easy, crescendoes into the beat drop and trickier motions. The finishing touch is the missed note right before the hard cut to title.
• Check available disk space in /usr. Verify that the /usr partition has a size of at least 1.1G. With less space the upgrade may fail and you should consider reinstalling the system instead.
When this says "available disk space," it means "total" disk space of the /usr partition, not "free" space. I had less than 1.1GB of unused free space on /usr and had to verify that that was fine before proceeding.
