I was watching a show on TV last night with the hero doing some wild stunt driving. As they showed an inside view of the dashboard, I could see that tach and speedo needles were resting at zero. That's quite a stunt!
Jerry, by the time the dashboard view was shown, the tach and speedo needles had probably already gone fully round-the-clock and were buried in the rest/stop pins.

In five years (maybe six) a star in the constellation Cygnus will explode and appear 10,000 times brighter than it does now.

As per the article, the twin star system is about "1,800 light-years away" from us. So the red nova, if and when we see it, is old news and has already occurred, about 1,795 or so years ago.

Yes, we can. But I don't think you understand what enflamed means.

Thought I would try your suggestion. This is the result of one of my various password (10 characters). I feel somewhat secure. 
Your password should be pretty secure except against those massive computers run by certain alphabet agencies or foreign governments.

I learned in a recent college computer class how long programs take to attain different lengths passwords. I wished I knew where to look up the stats, but 50 characters would take many many years! It was hard to believe how fast the shorter (6 characters, or less) passwords could be hacked.

Gibson's page allows you to try out varying passwords and see how many days, years or centuries it would take for a brute force cracking of password combinations.

Funny video of the Apple engineer. He's an Apple engineer, but he can't afford teeth?!
Apple has lowered the cost of the dongles after all the bad publicity.
The Hitler video isn't as good as some of the others. How does the map fit in???

Jerry, perhaps he is viewing Google Maps on a touch screen?

My camera somehow got set on taking videos when I was out in a photography class so all the photos I took showed up as MP4 files. Does anyone know how I can convert those files back to image files? I've searched the internet to no avail. Thanks in advance.
Google "convert video to jpg images" to find numerous programs for doing what you want. Many allow you to do it, for free, online.

I have the answer that will absolve me of any felony that I might commit in the future.
Is it based on a claim of intent?

The suspect's father says he shouldn't have been shot and that building bombs was only a hobby.

Jerry, there seems to be a lot more to this story than reported on in the article. Read the Comments posted below the article and one in particular from writer knows and lives close to the property and expands on this ongoing situation. The property and vehicles in the drive way are not always so neat appearing or so few as shown in the photos.

You've done a bit of homework. I've never been called a bogan before. It had to be by a Yank on a Yank forum. Well done mate!
Just to put a finer point on your research. What is the difference between a bogan and a bevan? It depends which part of Ipswich you're from.

Thank you for the compliment.
I’m not from Ipswich, I don’t speak 'Strayan but a lot of the same slang is used around here.
No homework or research was required and I admit to some ties in QLD.
As for bevan: could you put a mullet on it or perhaps have seen one on the telly?
For my next trick: I did research your avatars and that proved enlightening. You do very nice work.

Uh... OK. But can't offer any further suggestions unless you first answer the questions I posed.
