    Thankfully, it sounds like the chance of you passing on those misogynistic hater-genes is slim to non-existent.

  4. Who do you collect taxes from? I think you'll find they are the government's taxes, and once they have them you have very little say in how their taxes get spent. Just as well too, with the number of raving bigots around nothing good would ever happen.

    Ha. Most new stuff gets tested here first as we are small, so lower roll out costs. Kiwis are always dismayed overseas at the lack of EFT-POS.

    Yeah, the "it's not absolutely perfect so it's rubbish" crowd should just keep their moronic childish opinions to themselves.

    Where I'm from (Aotearoa - New Zealand) we have endangered native birds and dumping imported predators like cats in their habitat is very irresponsible behaviour.

    You have to build a lot of islands if they're only extending your territory 200 nanometers.

    My personal experience was that it was a buggy blue-screening piece of shit.

    Exactly, a menu has more discoverability. However, once I found that the start menu folders still exist I just did what I've always done with Windows: created my own toolbars in the taskbar containing my most used shortcuts. I hide the title and text and view small icons, then if you make the toolbar too small to show all the icons they get a double-chevron that acts like a menu start button, Then folders that are only visible when the chevrons are clicked expand like a menu as well. It's the only way Windows 8 is usable for me.
