I'm rounding the bend with my recent episode of cellphone hell. Most of the issues with my new phone have been eliminated with setting changes and installation of apps that helped fix problems the phone didn't do in it's stock setup.

One concession I made was to select the 'always on' screen because there weren't any visual indicators when the screen was turned off. My two previous models had a blinking light reminder when mail or unread texts were waiting.

This is my first phone to have 5G service and that's no additional charge from my carrier.

Maybe you can recall all the negativity issues people said about 5G, like no signal in buildings, the systems were made in China and capturing all your personal data and the most significant... 5G will burn your eyes in their sockets.

I'm due for an eye exam (and oil change in my car) so probably next week, I'll make an appointment... for both.

I'll report back here should the eye doctor find unusual retina damage.

A Gimp is someone who wears a rubber mask and has a s*xual fetish to be restrained and dominated. They may also have an attraction to inanimate objects as a preferred way to be sexually aroused.
Beware of Gimps! They may be on this site, but easy to spot by mask wearing, especially if the mask suddenly disappears.

Yeah, I know the first thing that pops in your head when you hear that phrase: Once you go black. Summer in South Florida can be brutal. Over the years, I had one white car and usually the others were silver. The one I bought a year ago is a dark graphite color. Depending on the lighting metallic charcoal. In the middle of the day, it's as good as black because you cannot touch the exterior without burning your hands. Mazda didn't offer silver in my model. They did have white and that would have been my second choice, but the feature package (for what they had in inventory) was a step down and didn't have leather seats. I would have to wait 6 weeks to order one and the dealer made the right price for the one I bought.

A friend has a black Honda and it gets so burning hot you can grill steaks on the hood!

I'm already shopping for a new car and thinking of returning to Toyota. Last year, they had a wait as long as 4 to 6 months for cars, depending on the model and were taking non-refundable deposits to order one.

Things are returning to normal and deliveries of dealer orders are arriving weekly.

Do I need a new car? No
But the 2024 Prius is their 4th generation hybrid and I've seen a few videos about it being Toyota's best mechanics and technology they offer. The Prius was always designed as a hybrid, unlike a Camry or RAV4 where they added the hybrid features to and existing model. This information came from a few YouTube videos where mechanics who often post new car reviews all had the same opinion about the Prius.

My finger is on the trigger... doing research and comparisons.
It's a 2-liter engine and I'm currently enjoying the power of a 2.5-liter engine that has a longer wheelbase to ride like a larger car. I won't know if the ride of the Prius can compare without a test drive.
Silver being my preference... I'm thinking white could be the best choice.

It was a wild idea a few years ago and now it's up where the U.S. Senate has passed a bill that could ban TikTok unless its Chinese parent company, ByteDance, divests from it.

Just think of all the FREE TIME people will have if they weren't posting hundreds of thousands of 'look at me' while I change my clothing videos!

I hope that whoever becomes leader in the forthcoming USA and UK elections will show leadership with regard to the situation between Russia and Ukraine. The signs are that if Trump wins he may not look favourably on continuing the supply of finance and weapons to Ukraine. This would put great pressure on the outcome of the war.
Whoever becomes UK prime minister ( unlikely to be Sunak ), I hope he will stand up in support of Ukraine and be persuasive to the President that America must show solidarity in that country's fight for freedom.

HIGGS was the scientist who believed in a substance that would enable light to be converted to matter. So, in the beginning of creation of all elements there must have been something to enable matter to be formed.
The Hadron collider confirmed the existence of such a substance and Higgs name was given to it, hence the Higgs boson.
A simple explanation, I know. A boson is a sub atomic particle.

The world we live in appears to be split between autocracies and democracies. Western Europe and USA on the one side, and Russia, Iran, China and North Korea dominating the other side.
Can this situation ever change or are we going to see this continuous threat to civilization and the ultimate consequence being war between the nations? Is it any use trying to discuss issues with regimes that have such extreme rigid views either politically or religious? If the world continues on this course, we are heading for disaster.
