Not quite the same.

There's actually a slight difference in pronunciation so you can always tell the non-locals when they say "leb ah NON" instead of "leb uh nun".

First read this:

Justification is the same. I wish Kindle would either disable full justification or hyphenate text.

Um. I don't use the dedicated Kindle reader, but I do have the app on my Nexus tablet - And I hate using it. I prefer FBReader which justifies, hyphenates, and kerns nicely.

Aaahhh ... there's nothing as satisfying as a good kern!

I haven't got a Nexus. The Kindle battery lasts a couple of months, worth the minor annoyance of unevenly spaced words.

That was my final score after the ten: two 100%'s in there.

Ah, Pete ... you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year wishing.
And remember ... truly wonderful the mind of a child is ... especially if you can pinch their Mince Pies when they are not looking!

And a happy, jolly, yuletide to yourself young Miss Choccywoccydoodah!
(We went to see Choccywoccydoodah last week - very disappointing, all those people kept getting between the O'Hanlon family and the chocolate ).

Got 95%
Got most of them to 100% (although often there were some differences to the "solution" so I don't really understand how that is 100% then...)

Do you use accented characters in passwords? Do sites in your language allow them? (just curious)
Yesterday a site (which shall remain unnamed) refused a password because it had a space in it. Why the [bleep] not? It's just another character. Don't their devs read XKCD?

Oh, that is annoying - but not as bad as the morons who don't check the email address rules and won't accept hyphenated domains...
I end up signing up with a Ten Minute Mail address, and changing it afterwards. Strangely, these sort of idiots don't often check validity for changes, just for sign up!

My Gmail address has a dot in it (in the name part, not the domain). A lot of sites used to reject it. It is mercifully much less frequent recently.

gmail doesn't [or at least didn't] allow hyphens with which my full name is blessed. I replaced it with a full-stop.

Try having an Irish surname. I get sick of sites not taking the correct form of my surname because they think it's the start of a SQL Injection attack.

But Pete, you were trying to type:
O' UPDATE Logins SET Password = 'HanlonIsGod'!
Life is like a s**t sandwich; the more bread you have, the less s**t you eat.

It's only because the stupid password system didn't do this automatically.

Thats nearly as good as the Internet provider that I get my home broadband from didn't like the email address that I entered to gain more information about a product.
but the email address is one that they gave me.

In Hungarian, there are 14 vowels - a, á, e, é, i, í, o, ó, ö, ő, u, ú, ü and ű - it's bally annoying. I have an English keyboard but have to switch to Hun for the bloody stupid long double accent o and u.
