You're confused. Or you're not. Maybe you are. Where's my kitten? You're confused.

Actually, people have been time travelling since the stone age... Because I time traveled back from 2057 with a time machine and explained them how to use it. Not in our current timeline of course 
Too bad I never got to go back to the present because the software threw a NullReference exception

Wouldn't that be the rams? 
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Sounds like regular steering to me.

You should use "widdershins[^]" and "deasil[^]" to avoid all confusion.

So...
Quote: The steering mechanism is reversed (turning the steering wheel deasil moves the vehicle sinisterly, widdershins steers dexterly)

That's it! That's so much clearer than the original. No possibility of confusion there.

Surely it depends on whether you are travelling hubwards or rimwards.

And you have to push the tiller to the starboard side to turn to the port side

Exactly.
If you're left handed, then spin the steering wheel down for a left turn and spin it up for a right turn.
Vice-versa for right-handers.
This should all be clear for any user. 
However, if you find yourself steering while facing out the back of the car, then please reverse all directions.

Fresh from the bug fixing front. The customer wrote this:
"... verschinden von Benutzern..."
If he had written it this way, it would only mean that some users don't appear in some view anymore:
"... verschwinden von Benutzern..."
Otherwise, 'schinden' would mean to torture or slowly execute the users, team leads and managers in this case. Now to guess which of the two he actually wants...
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"No, from Canada."
