Why autism rates have increased@ShiroKuro I think Mik has answered that question.

Count me outWhen my $ watch got saltwater in it, the cost to repair it almost as much as original price. Told them to keep it. Bought a Garmin that is smarter than I am. It counts steps and tells me who is calling plus more than I want to know. Smartwatches and AI could be a scary thing.
May have to go back to a Timex. Then again, they are copying some expensive watches, but those look like the cheap copies they are. -

The paradePlanned to go to a morning protest due to the 108F predicted. My vision is remarkably better, but the eye still feels like a damaged soft boiled egg. Bob had to change his medication routine, which may cause a few rougher than usual days for him.
