Would you do the same hand-waving if you were getting short changed via misleading advertising when pumping gas into your car or withdrawing money from your bank account?
We have standards for measures in other forms of business, I see no reason why computers should be different.
On my KDE Linux most programs are very good about making this distinction. You can even choose which option you want system-wide.
Only one other commenter mentioned the minimum wage in AUS, which is $15/hour. That is compared to $7.25/hour in the US.
I have no idea how the taxes compare and affect the actual "in your pocket" amount after all is said and done, but clearly having a job in AUS would seem to assure you of an income many Americans can only dream of.
High income/high cost people also get to enjoy more mobility than low income/low cost people with regards to traveling and vacations.
You can deal with super cookies by using an add-on like FF's BetterPrivacy.
Even more basically, you can make Flash's hidden
Your comment made be curious, so I looked into it and Chrome is indeed using the PPAPI plugin (which other programs can't make use of) on all platforms as of Chrome 23.

As a matter of fact, I just reconfigured an old P4 box for my niece. And the distro I installed on it was Xubuntu.>
Just as an aside, I'd recommend Lubuntu for most P4s, especially those with less than 768MB. Xubuntu these days isn't so much a light version of mainline Ubuntu as an alternate full version (like Kubuntu is ).
and when touch typing, the index finger on opposite hands is used for both letters (and the movement is rotationally symmetrical)
I touch type with Dvorak, you insensitive clod!
The continued dominance of the illogical QWERTY keyboard smells like a conspiracy to me!
That depends on whether you are a gamer or a donkey.

They could be just continuing the tradition of referring to ships as "she".
While they people running the mission do not depend on the rover for their livelihood the way sailors depended on their ship, I'm assuming it's still a group of mostly men working together over a long time period.
