NP. Yes ABS is designed to avoid exactly that issue, essentially by implementing in a mechanical way what drivers used to do manually - pumping the brakes etc.

They're "brakes" and it's "braking". Yes, I know the previous commenter got it wrong as well.
The usual problem with slamming on the brakes is that it causes the wheels to lock up and slide instead of slowing the vehicle down.
Yep, exactly. We already have exceptions for these dogs now in many cases.
"Let all brave Prussians follow me!"— Field Marshal Kurt Christoph Graf von Schwerin (6 May 1757), at the Battle of Prague, immediately before being struck by a cannonball.
Based on how he’s been acting since he became a lord, i would guess that his donations to Labour were simply to secure him the life peerage that Labour duly gave him in 2009, and since then we’re seeing his true colours, including reposting a photoshopped photo of Corbyn with Hitler, and mocking the Senegal football team, saying they looked like street-side hawkers. Í think he occasionally bleats some sexist crap on xwitter as well.
He was one of the largest donors to the Labour Party, who made him a Lord. A few years later he switched sides to the Conservatives, and had been acting like the archetypal Tory gobshite ever since.

Relativity only applies to local reference frames and not to the recession rates of cosmologically distant objects.
I can't find any reference that says it's moving away from us at twice the speed of light, which would violate Relativity. The fact that it is further away from us in light years than the age of the universe in years, is due to the fact that the space itself is expanding.
It doesn't. Gravity is caused by mass not spin. The planet's rotation about it's own axis will create a centrifugal effect that offsets gravity, but the effect is negligible for anything rotating as slow as planets.
I played the original Elite on the BBC, and then Elite 2 & 3 on the Amiga. Elite Dangerous on the PC was just plain dull by comparison.
Does the world have a government or did the headline perhaps forget to mention that it’s referring to one particular country…?
It’s basically nothing more than a badly written advert.
The author is basing this claim on feedback from FIVE people who have been playing the game. If Bethseda are only expecting a similar number to play it once it’s released, then this is a useful metric. Otherwise it’s meaningless.
“THIS WEBSITE IS A JOKE”
Literally none of those are actually"objective"…

This one, every time. Imagine buying a product or service for an agreed price, and then being guilt-tripped into having to pay 20%, or more, on top because the owners don’t pay their staff enough salary to survive on. It should be fucking illegal. Pay your staff a proper salary and charge your clients the price you published on your menu/price-list etc. Running a business isn’t a god-given right, and if you can’t do it without screwing your employees over, then you’re not capable of running a business period. You should bugger off and let someone who is capable, and who isn’t an empathy vacuum have a go.
What, the generic Windows driver wasn’t good enough…?
