... which don't listen to everything you say (unless the NSA asks them to) just in case you give it a command to wake up and do something ... like order 2 tonnes of creamed corn.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Some phones are voice activated which means, yes, they do listen to everything.

Samsungs Bixby is forever trying to get me to upgrade all my apps to work with Bixby, not bloody likely. I hope like hell Google is not turned on by default.

That's bad news, that extra sunshine will surely aggravate global warming.

I'm firmly with Florida. I've been wishing the UK would do that for many years (or at least settle on something half an hour between GMT and BST to use all year round).

The UK did, under Harold Wilson's Premiership.
It was called British Standard Time (thus retaining BST).
The lighter evenings significantly reduced the number of injuries and fatalities incurred by children returning home from school.
However, the Daily Mail decided that this did not outweigh the, very few, injuries and fatalities incurred by paper delivery boys in the darker mornings.
Darling Harold, ever the gutless wonder, caved in.
Hence GMT & BST remain.
(Those Ooop North claimed that BST in winter was an inconvenience, but they've always been Dark and Satanic.)

I knew the idea was floated back then but I didn't realise that it was ever implemented.
Thank God we have the Daily Mail to save us from the evils of road safety and vaccinations!

What I meant was I hate the switch. When we go into DST we don't switch back in fall.
