I am planning on using my telescope during the eclipse, and one thing I want to see is Mercury, something which you basically never can see.

I search: "view Mercury during..." and as I am typing, Google suggests the last word in my question...

"Pregnancy"

Wierd. None of the top results use view in them. This whole thing dont make any sense.

Was your wife using your computer to search for mercury in pregnancy stuff? These results are tailored to you

Google's search suggestions works in segments now, so when you typed "mercury during" it suggested "pregnancy," not having anything to do with "view." Not that this is much better because it suggests that some people thought taking mercury while pregnant might be OK, or that there were still relevant medical uses for mercury in the times since the Internet came about

Best answer ever.

For the rest, it's my work PC, wife has never used it, and hasn't been pregnant during its entire life anyway.

It's probably more of a "How do I test mercury levels during pregnancy because I really really love sushi."

Ah that makes a lot of sense. I never thought of it as "viewing" though, it's not like you check it through a sight glass
