The “wouldn’t give me the time of day” phrase meant that someone had been ignored after a greeting. “Good day” or “good morning” or “good afternoon” elicited no response, and therefore would not get back the time of day, as an affront or insult.
I proposed reprogramming my sister’s Siri to answer to “Computer” said with a Scottish burr. I think the last words in that conversation were a growled “The keyboard – - how quaint!”

I have the same problem with Siri on my phone. Won’t answer me. I’ve given up.
