Shut your trap.

You win all the pedant points, victory is yours. Obviously I knew it was named after Miss Lovelace but for some reason I thought it was still spelled all capitalised when referring to the programming language. A quick Google search has disabused me of that notion.

Oh yeah, they got shipped with pathetically small batteries didn't they.

You've never had to carry a laptop around if you don't see the weight differential being a massive glaring difference between a 2008 netbook and a 2008-era cheap laptop. And by laptop I mean back breaking block of concrete. Also you never used a cheap laptop away from mains power if you didn't see the difference between having a battery life measured in minutes - a cheap 2008 laptop would likely crap out at about 90 minutes top - and a battery life measured in hours for netbooks, my 901 gets 5 hours happily.

*No Ture Scotsman Alert* That's not a netbook, I get 4 hours out of mine doing fairly intensive programming on mine whilst over-clocking it.

I love had back in the day C++ advocate sneered at ADA due to that fact that ADA was "designed by committee". Now C++ is the ultimate example of a design by committee language. And that committee is huge.

Why is this even news? It's always been known that the "Lie by Truth" was that there was no blood shed in Tienanmen square. But everyone knows the violence happened in the side streets and around the rest of the city.

And on the number of levels wikipedia is once again wrong, there were:

Norfed - The top level orginisation
Regional Currency Officer
Regional Currency Associates
Merchants
Who had varying levels of "discount" purchasing Liberty Dollars which they were then encouraged to spend or give as change "at a profit". Oh, and there were referral bonuses (paid in supposedly despised federal reserve notes) for signing up other suckers - I mean associates.

They were recalled and rebased to $50 when the 20 day (I think) average price of silver crested $17 an ounce.

Now that's how to debase a currency.

No they weren't, they had $50 dollar's stamped on them, they had less than $20 worth of silver in them. They were bought and sold through a multi-level marketing scheme,

The Liberty coins that he stamped with $50 dollars on them despite them containing less that $20 worth of silver?

I wonder why that happened?

No, they've just added an easier way of deleting cookies. Deleting cookies has been available for as long as they've had LSOs as far as I am aware.

For as long as I've used flash you've had the ability to delete the flash cookies. Does 10.3 make this somehow easier? Becaus otherwise that's a load of bull to mention that as a new feature.

EDIT: Okay, I've now read TFA, they've made it easier - not that they've made it possible.

"I actually looked at the data"

"I haven’t done a raw dump of the locations in the file"

So that first quote would be a lie then?

What, by engaging in a lawsuit to prove that Top Gear has lied and wilfully misrepresented their product they will draw attention to the fact that Top Gear lied and mis-represented their product? Tesla are positively banking on the "Streisand Effect". This is not some frivolous law suit. This is seeking stopping Top Gear wilfully misrepresenting their product.
