People say, "Autism is on the rise" but as an autistic person I see a site like this and go, "No, autism was always with us, we just labelled it differently in the past".
I was having roughly the same thought.
I thought to myself, this is something my son would produce, and I'd be super proud, and see through the 90's/Yahoo-ish style.
"Autism is on the rise" isn't necessarily incompatible with autism being prevelant in the past (or mutually exclusive with the usually implied and objectionable claim that "Environmental factor X", usually vaccines, "is the cause").
If anything, based on my experience, and the experience of my autistic friends; I would expect autism to be on the rise just because of assortitive mating. With the invention of widespread access to university, and growing cities, it's much easier to meet autistic people than it would've been in the past.
This is awesome, and a nice trip down memory lane for when I lived in Hawai'i.
Looks like the last update was in January 2014 though.
Oscar Voss was updating some of xyr other pages as recently as 2018.

Apple should learn some UX lessons from this
peak web design.
I love this design!

I mean that lovingly.
Researching and publishing/hobbies is now autism?
If your hobby is anything that requires focus or attention to detail, it's autism.

Then I saw the date of the last update: http://www.hawaiihighways.com/what's-new.htm So comprehensive!

A problem with your browser?
A browser plugin, yes, that I installed to not go to insecure websites.
I understand your problem, I use similar filters. But I use a VPN too, so I'm able to quickly get around it.
Still, phrasing reads a bit like a BBQ review that starts out "as a vegan ..."
Why not?
I limit myself to https-only websites using website plugins. For privacy reasons.
You might want to consider using Tor Browser, since that mitigates more privacy issues than just using only https on websites.
