Download Siri legally for your iOS 5 devices (iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPod Touch, iPad etc...)

Great! News for older iPhone users trying to get some Siri love on their phones can finally rejoice. Thanks to hackers Grant Paul (aka chpwn), Steve Troughton-Smith and Ryan Petrich. After months of work, they have developed an installer called Spire


With Spire you can install Siri legally on your iPhone 4, 3GS, iPod Touch, iPad (all iOS 5) devices. The creators claim that their is no copyright infringement issues unlike previous Siri hacks.


To achieve this they are using Proxy servers to connect to Apple's servers. Once installed it will connect to Apple servers to initiate official Siri download of about 100MB.


Although, some limitations still exist for you before you can have Siri up and running on your device. To begin with, Your iDevice must be jailbroken in order to install Spire. Then you need to have some technical knowledge to set up the proxy servers, to identify your device as iPhone 4S.(Check back for official step-by-step configuration of Spire coming soon).
The latest version of Spire can be downloaded from 3rd party appstore Cydia.


The developers claim that whenever iPhone 4S gets jailbroken, their won't be any need of proxy servers. Also they are evaluating an option of using Google Chrome's Speech API to serve the Siri requests, which in my opinion is better option because it will eliminate the need to bypass Apples's Server authentication. 


We are still waiting to see how Apple reacts to this News. Whether they will allow it(unlikely) or they somehow manage to identify and block these proxy servers.

Decrapify / Debloat Windows 10 with a Powershell Script

Windows 10 is a decent OS from Microsoft after the disaster known as Windows 8 and 8.1. Although Windows is still better with no Modern UI crap, no ads, minimal telemetry, no Edge to bug you. But Windows 10 is a decent compromise if you want a stable OS with modern features like DirectX 12. Earlier OEMs used to bundle PCs and Laptops with crapware, with Windows 10, now Microsoft themselves bundle crapware. Welcome to Software as a Service (SaaS) model. On top of that we have OEM crapware on top of Microsoft crapware. As a result trying to Debloat or DeCrapify Windows 10 is getting absurd and as a system admin it is disheartening to see all that performance go to waste on the messed up attempt by Microsoft to do an Appstore and its apps. Fortunately a kind soul who goes by name  Sycne x has worked painstakingly to provide us a simple solution that works considerably well. Let's Begin To download the script visit  here , and click Clone or Download and Click Download as Zip.
