Mercedes PR are having far too much fun with this, at least it's making their weeks leading up to Christmas a bit more entertaining. :laugh:

Force India are getting in on it, too...

Is someone going to start the 2017 thread? Just a thought considering it's all over for this year

Yeah I'll do it, probably in the lead up to the new car announcements some time early next year.

 

Also, off season posting has started, and it's glorious.

Also as expected Bottas is top choice, but Williams have rejected Merc's initial offer.

And Alonso's management have confirmed he's staying with McLaren.

Williams in 'advanced' talks with Felipe Massa over F1 comeback - report

 

Felipe Massa is in "advanced talks" with Williams about reversing his decision to retire and return to the team in 2017 if Valtteri Bottas moves to Mercedes, according to a report in L'Equipe.

 

Bottas' place at Williams suddenly looks in doubt as he has emerged the favourite to replace Nico Rosberg, who retired from F1 less than a week after winning his first world title. Massa stepped away from F1 after the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, his 250th career start, but could be back in white overalls for 2017 if the team loses Bottas.

Mercedes will not confirm Rosberg replacement until early 2017

 

Mercedes has confirmed it will not announce Nico Rosberg's replacement until early 2017.

 

Five days after winning his first world title, Rosberg stunned Mercedes and the racing world by announcing his retirement from the sport. The team has confirmed it will consider "all options" but the list of candidates narrowed this week when Fernando Alonso reaffirmed his commitment to McLaren.

 

Though Mercedes initially stated it wanted to announce his replacement before Christmas a spokesman said on Thursday there will be no announcement before January 3, when the team returns to work at the factory. No exact date was given for the announcement.

      I have disabled it, but the app is still taking space. I have a Mac and it is only possible to disable Ai on that, but I think that bit does get rid of the AI components after a while. What we are told is that we agree to all this when we use the devices as it is in the end user agreements, their software, they can do what they like. I doubt that any bill will happen in the U.S, the government there are in league with big tech firms. The E.U maybe, they seem to have some guts when it comes to tech companies. The U.K is not in the E.U, but some things still affect us. Our government is as gutless when it comes to tech companies as the U.s government.

A major compiler is used for both x86/x64 and WoA64 architectures. This also means that all core libraries are re-compiled accordingly which required some changes in the build scripts. One of the core libraries (cURL) has been updated to address vulnerabilities and a nasty linker error that was causing the need for a dedicated patch which could now be eliminated.
