1. That tray balloon should have a check box on it to not show it to you again.
2. Remember the last Slack domain used, in the text box.
hello!
when will we eventually be able to go to a petrol station, fill our car, and pay automatically, contactless, instantly?
by a system that will recognize our plate and charge our account accordingly?
ok, if you want we can enter our pin to authorise the transaction, but for me personally it isn't necessary

You do realise we have Contactless payment available at Tesco Petrol stations amongst many many others...for the most part, ASDA petrol stations are unmanned and require you to enter your Credit Card before pumping fuel...which...to be honest...if you are refueling...you are going to be standing around anyway, so it's not like you could be doing anything other than standing there...so it doesn't really take extra time-Stephen66515 (October 20, 2014, 04:44 PM)
I just used BP and it didn't have any such feature! Do I need a special card to pay contactless?-kalos (October 21, 2014, 02:59 AM)
Airport spokeswoman Elena Krylova said: "Tonight, a plane crashed when it collided with a snow-clearing machine. Three crew members and a passenger died."
"I can confirm that the passenger was Total's head de Margerie," she said.
Mr de Margerie had been chief executive of Europe's third largest oil company since 2007.
The company has confirmed his death.
Russia's emergencies ministry said in a statement that the accident had involved a Falcon-50 plane shortly before midnight Moscow time (20:00 GMT) on Monday. The jet had been due to fly to Paris.
The 63-year-old executive was highly regarded within the oil industry. At Total, where he had spent his entire career, he was nicknamed "Big Moustache".
He joined Total Group after graduating from the Ecole Superieure de Commerce in Paris in 1974.
John Hofmeister, former president of Shell Oil told the BBC: "It's a huge loss to the industry and its future focus.
"What he has done for Total in repositioning the company to return to integrity and sound operations is deeply respected and highly regarded."
During his time at the helm of Total Mr Margerie successfully defended the company against allegations of corruption around the UN oil-for-food programme in Iraq.
He maintained the company's investments in Burma and Iran despite US sanctions against those countries. This year he argued Europe should maintain its energy relationship with Russia amid the conflict in Ukraine.

Nope, I'm using one called Awesomium. Not 100% sure what it is based on but it worked very nicely for the main functions.The only problem I'm having atm is how to store cookies so you can store your logins...difficult to work with a little known browser engine that is under-documented
