    What in the? I have seen many screen displays posted online before, but that one's a first!

    [EDIT:] That has to be AI. The display is off center and the damned engine light isn't even lit.

    Underneath parts of north Alabama lies an ancient underground ocean, preserved in the rock. Fossils of sea creatures are still being found in limestone beds!

    Up in the Shenandoah mountains of Northwestern VA, I have found seashells up at the very top of the mountains, buried in the landscaping. Specifically, in George Washington National Forest.

    Same here and we live @ 7,220'. When we head up into the hills we find sea shells.

    Yes, it's been a thing for many years. Gary Kaufman has one (or more).
    The only interesting clock here has a Nixie tube 'display'. :blush:

    meanwhile, I've brought back a bountiful harvest from the fertile memefields of ASR...

    The airship USS Los Angles...
    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Los_Angeles_(ZR-3)
    "On 25 August 1927, while Los Angeles was tethered at the Lakehurst high mast, a gust of wind caught her tail and lifted it into colder, denser air that was just above the airship. This caused the tail to lift higher. The crew on board tried to compensate by climbing up the keel toward the rising tail, but could not stop the ship from reaching an angle of 85 degrees, before it descended. The ship suffered only slight damage and was able to fly the next day."

    I've seen this picture so many times, but I thought it was artwork, not a real photo of an accident.

    Agreed; I'm thinking that would not be a pleasant experience if a fella happened to be using the can at that point in time.

    as long as the media player one uses isn't "smart". A DVDP (or whatever) hooked to the internet can be "updated" any time, with... well... whatever changes the updater wishes to enact. Seems like it would be pretty easy to block playback of a specific title or, say a class of discs, via firmware.

    No, I am not PARANOID!! WHO TOLD YOU I WAS!?!

    Articles say only minor injuries and no fatalities.
