Does the "Preferred Location" option include "In the trunk" so kidnap victims can be fed?

What? No Allard or Alvis? Shocking! Still, I'm sure they'll have Frazer Nash further down the list...

Konigsegg is surely down there too.

So if you have no clue (or care not) what car do you driving (except taht it is white) you can not order pizza at Domino's?

While I fully appreciate the fact that not everyone is a gear-head...for most people a car represents a major investment, even if you're just leasing. If you've made such a major investment and can't even name the make and model of your own car...then yeah, as far as I'm concerned, you can go without pizza.
But then, this is Domino's we're talking about. Not much of a punishment.

25 years I drive a car my company buys and maintains... It is a white care replaced every 3 years with an other white car... I do forget what type after about 3-4 months...

I'm betting if it was a POS that you'd have to bring back to the dealer yourself you'd never forget what it is.

that's correct. it's a bit of a IQ test too. Or car knowledge test. If you don't know, then no pizza for you.

I drive last year's most sold car and now I'm afraid they'll give me someone else's pizza because they drive the same car.
Guess I'll take my Geely* then... Oh wait 
* Actually, I don't think there's even a single Geely on the road in the Netherlands, I've seen them in Cuba and Russia (Chinese car).

Is there a "none of the above" option?
I see that Bristol is not on the list and I am fairly certain there are some... well a few... well, a very small number of Bristol Blenheims being driven in the USA.

And no Bricklin on the list either!
|
|
|
|
|
Yeah and where's the Delorean? --- the obvious copy of the Bricklin.

On the other hand, some might want to know what car the pizza delivery driver is arriving in. Some of those would definitely raise eyebrows!

I would take my Yugo because I wouldn't want anyone to know I hang out with Bugatti drivers. (I only had Dominos once, that was enough).
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

Make sure it's one with heated seats to keep the pizza warm on the way home

I don't eat their pizza.
Homemade is tastier and cheaper.

But you still drive your Bugatti to Dominos, right?

Not allowed to drive.
And we make our own pizza dough.

I have a new laptop and I decided to go ahead and try the built-in email client that is installed on Win10. -- Aside: Notice that I don't even know the name of this app? Microsoft isn't very good at naming stuff.
Anyways, I connected to my email server and email arrived in my inbox but there was no way to scroll through them.
Oh..........isn't that quaint? The scrollbar appears when you hover over that area. That's a ingenious idea.
It's so I have more space. But I have plenty of space so I search and learn how to make Scrollbars always appear. that's a nice waste of time.
But, there is a bug too. If I now go to the scrollbar, the cursor always shows up as a I bar instead of an arrow as it should. Oy! I made a video of this and posted it to youtube so you can see it in action[^].
So here is my big question. When would any user want to have to hover over the scrollbar so it can appear (thus the user is sitting and waiting for the scrollbar to appear)?
Oh, you say, on pad type of devices the screens are smaller so this enables the user to see 2 more characters than they would otherwise be able to see and then they can hover and see the scrollbar.
Except pads usually don't offer a hover-type of functionality do they? Well maybe Surface does since you use a mouse with it. But for most there would be no cursor (since a finger is used as the pointer) and no hover ability so it just doesn't make sense to me.

I've sometimes noticed this in VS too.

Thanks for letting me know you see that in other apps too. I'm always curious about this stuff.
I've actually had this outlook client on here for about 2 weeks now (updates, rebooted numerous times, etc.) and the cursor always shows up as an I-bar. It's so weird and annoying.

Although I feel your pain, this isn't something that's new or something that's specific for this app.
Windows 10 has this in the start menu, it's in pretty much every Windows 10 setting screen and some other apps as well I think.
And I think Windows 8 had this as well.
Not to mention pretty much every app on your phone.
My point is, great that you've been able to avoid it for the past 10 years or so, but you better get used to it

Suppose they changed all the steering wheels in the all the cars to squares?
Would you reply that way too.
Also, none of the other apps on win10 hide the scrollbar so it's weird I thought it kind of went away.

I don't know what kind of phone you use that has scrollbars?? You can just scroll all the content on most phones. Just touch and slide.

If they all did it ten years ago and it wouldn't be a huge hassle and I'd have gotten used to it by now and you'd now make a post complaining about it, then yes 
raddevus wrote: none of the other apps on win10 hide the scrollbar
I just found another app that does this real quick, GitHub Desktop.
Much more I think, but I don't know which ones from the top of my head.
And, as said, all settings forms.

My Android Galaxy S10 has them. They're really tiny and almost impossible to select, but they're there.
Sometimes you just need them for some serious scrolling.
