Mate - I'm expecting complete system failure everywhere else.

VW is crucified as a scapegoat.
Most likely VW has manipulated the tests ... but the question remains, how much value have tests which can be manipulated that easy ... think about bench marks for cpu's were the one and the other cpu has been optimized especially for some of these tests! (yes cpu && Co2 has not that direct relation....(?))
In the latest news one discusses about some kg +- which is the input for test software, this compared to let us say a weight of 1500 kg where +15kg means 1%. This compared to a standardized "test" which is hard to justify in % how realistic it is.
No, I don't drive a VW  but I think all the shout is unnecessary and artificiall.
Only my 0.01 Cents.

I agree. In light of all of the other obvious lies that manufacturers peddle about the performance and fuel efficiency of their vehicles, this seems like small potatoes.

Thank you for your Response.

We're not talking about weighting the test (still a criminal offence in most countries by the way) but deliberately introducing technology to cheat an independent test. It's the equivalent difference between avoiding tax and evading tax. It's blatantly illegal and fraudulent. How can you pretend that the hoo-ha is scapegoating (a word which you don't really seem to understand in itself - the scapegoat takes the blame for something it didn't do!)? Do you also feel that the FIFA representatives should be immune from charges on the basis that 'everybody' was doing it?

Actual Headline (on Drudge Report): "Expert Warns Against Sex With Robots"
I don't know what's more disturbing - that people are actually having sex with robots, or that there's someone out there that considers himself an expert regarding sex with robots.
My view is that you just need to use the right protection, such as an anti-static strap to prevent you from accidently shorting out your sex robots circuitry.

I'd suggest ...umm... some sort of fluid retaining device, perhaps made of latex, to prevent "liquids" coming into contact with delicate circuitry as well...

Well, one would hope that a purpose-built sex robot would come standard with that kind of protection.

I agree. The whole purpose of sex with robots would be not to have to do the things you'd do with an organic being.

I was thinking more of fumbling latex packets and pregnancy.

Instead, you're fumbling for the charger and swearing because the lead is two feet too short...

Not to mention the fact that participating in "water sports" would not be on the recommended usage list, especially when the charger is plugged in...

Failing that, you could use your Full Body Latex Suit. You do still have that out in the shed?

It's still in regular use. Fortunately, latex is easy to repair.

It would make more sense if it was more like; Headline: "Expert Warns Against Sex With Robots, Because If You Do, You'd Be a Freakin' Nutjob!"
"the debugger doesn't tell me anything because this code compiles just fine" - random QA comment
"Facebook is where you tell lies to your friends. Twitter is where you tell the truth to strangers." - chriselst
"I don't drink any more... then again, I don't drink any less." - Mike Mullikins uncle

Actually, I can think of several benefits of having a sex robot instead of a human sex partner.
0) You don't have to think of anything to say when you're done.
1) You don't have to concern yourself with whether or not your sex robot is satisfied.
2) You can have more than one sex robot without all the other sex robots getting jealous.
3) Your sex robot will always like what you do and the way you do it, and will remember your preferences for the next encounter.
4) Sex can be as rough as desired, because the spare parts market will be extensive.
5) Parts will be inter-changeable so you can configure your sex robot to fit the evenings requirements.
I could go on...

Yeah sure, it all seems OK until you hear "I'm sorry Dave John, I'm afraid I can't do that..."
