The Rosie Ruiz model comes with a drone to pluck the robot off the ground and deposit it just around the corner from the finish line - new marathon world record: 45 seconds.

There's also a new feature "Hide distracting items" where you can select items and make them disappear. Here Safari shows that the "Start and end your day..." box can be "disappeared (the blue outline - I added the green arrow).

Poof! It's gone with one click. You can keep clicking items and make them disappear in rapid succession.

I am an IT person, but with each passing day...I like technology less and less!

I’ll NEVER get click baited into going to that fkn site again!!!! Yes! I, almost always, look at the Freerepublic comments before clicking on anything these days.
Unless it is a site that I already know and trust, I do not click.

I'm told it beats the alternative.
But I guess that really depends on which way you end up going...
