. . . squash the rumor! Sources on the Web have started rumors that Zonker is not actually the cartoon character that he has long claimed to be but rather is a flesh and blood human being dwelling somewhere in the Pacific NW wilderness. Of course, I've read similar claims about Sasquatch, so I woul...

Does this mean Irish coffee is the answer to life, the universe, and everything?: (NewsNation) — University of Washington Center and University of California Berkeley researchers believe they may have found a potential key to improving sleep quality, and the surprising combination involves coffee an...

And instead of aisles full of crap you had beans, flour, sugar, coffee, jerky and that's it. Made shopping a helluva lot easier. That was all that was considered "Vital," since back then "Signs" were about the weather, "Tracking" led to making your own jerky, "Rings" were for hitching up a team of ...

Was that in the 1800s?

Because back then no one could be active or healthy, since there was no technology available for that.

A healthy dose of media literacy never hurt anyone. And no one makes advertisers tell the truth. A variety of voices and viewpoints keep forums healthy. I don't consider the Apple watch to be a bad product, as long as people aren't misled about what it can and cannot be replied upon to do for them. ...

And speaking of communication, these days many fitness-tracker toys fail to communicate with their buyers at all without expensive subscriptions. What a rip-off!:

I bet you like Cool Hand Luke.

Only when what we have here is a failure to communicate.

I consider the keeping of one's pulse in the correct range during aerobic exercise to be an important consideration.

Fortunately, doing that does not require any of the trendy health toys.

I hypothesize that users of wearables may easily fall mostly into one of two primary categories: (1) Those for whom the device seems to provide a basis for a false sense of security. ["I am impervious to harm because of this lucky charm I wear that was provided by my technological talisman."] (2) Th...

"Health toys."

Yep.

I personally don't get the reasoning behind using health toys for constantly monitoring things that I would have no way of treating/tweaking anyway. AHI alone allows me to be informed enough to decide on day-to-day-PAP-machine-home-treatment settings. And I might use a recording pulse-oximeter once ...
