I think they cut some corners they thought nobody would notice. Error message for the charging port door being left open, headroom for people taller than munchkins, etc. Besides, if you left the door open and drove around in a salt-laden environment for a few weeks, you might find that you need a bigger repair than just closing the door.
We can program with only 1's, but if all you've got are zeros, you've got nothing.

Sad thing is that there IS a message when I leave the charging port door open! But when the door malfunctions, I get the engine light.

A cion has two sides... We may burn spammers fast (and we still get them live), but we also answer a few hundred questions, publish around a hundred articles/tips/blog posts.
It seems to me a fair ballance...

Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Thanks for fix.
The hunters are very active here. Yesterday I put a question subject "C++ wchar_t under pressure, urgent..."
Yes, I expected some reactions because of "urgent", but the Q was answered very fast and I accepted and voted 5 for the answer. Nevertheless some hunters felt uncomfortable with the accepted and answered Q and reported it afterwards...
It's strange here sometimes.

The site survives because of paid advertising: spammers try to undermine that revenue stream and advertise their products for free. If that was not stamped on as ruthlessly as possible, it would breed and the paying advertisers would be a lot less likely to fork over the dough every month.
And that would lead to a reduction in service, or even a complete closure - this site isn't cheap to run when you count premises, staff, electricity bills, hardware costs, sunflower seeds, and mankinis into the equation.
I - and I presume you - want the site to remain open. And maintaining revenue stream is an important part of that.
Plus ... if we don't squash the little Elephants, they flood the place so you can't see anything else at all.

You forgot another thing.
Nipple tassels cost money too, and depending on the number of performances (and rehearsals) every month, a large number of 'em get ordered. Sean is particular about quality, and he selects them all by himself.

The array hasn't got as far as one, yet.

His profile says Swiss - but the name implies Chinese to me?
In which case he's behind The Great Fire Wall of China, and can't access Google at all (he has to use Baidu instead IIRC).
Chinese internet does not show the same "history" as the rest of the world - particularly related to civil rights abuses, Tibet, Tiananmen Square, etc., and can result in you getting a night-time visit from interested government officials if you get too inquisitive. Allegedly.

Perhaps he meant Jawascript.[^] Jawas are from another planet, you know.

Yes - it's "999".
Those pesky Yurpeans will tell you it's "112". But what do they know?
