Why the hell you should waste your talent/time emulating NES?

I really like the 6502.

I cut my "adult" programming teeth on the 6502. Loved it. Things went downhill from there in terms of complexity and stupidity. Sorry, don't mean to be a curmudgeon. I've quite enjoyed some of the "higher level" programming jobs in my life, and yet I still miss the elegance of assembly language programming.

I grew up with it so for me, I guess it's kind of comforting and familiar.

Me too. A lot of childhood memories...
Actually I developed a C64 emulator - working good, only the SID needs improvements...

You need to nurture that talent by making something fun in between.
Or you might get tired of everything and start exploring knitting patterns instead.

Sydney motorcyclist caught sppeding[^]
So they checked his helmet mounted dash cam ... and added extra offences.
Fines total: AU$75,000.
That's US$54,000, or £40,000.
Might have to save up for a while to pay that one ...

I saw a warning in the press here some while ago warning drivers that police can and will examine dashcams to check for offences.

You do kinda expect it - or I would. But leaving 41 other offences on there for a £40K fine is ... dumb. 
You have to wonder what that is going to do to his insurance premium for a few decades as well!

If he can't afford the fine(s) he's getting, being able to afford his insurance premium should be the last of his worries.
And I don't have much sympathy for anyone in that situation.

Such individuals are rarely noted for their high IQs.

Right! I’ve NEVER known any really smart people who drive like dickheads. Never! /sarc
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

The article did say $75000 was the total of the combined fines and that he most likely will get a much lower one.

It's the "1 x Breach Public Health Order" that has me worried / confused ... what was he doing?

Stopped in an alley to "relieve" himself perhaps?

It's Australia - probably wasn't wearing a face diaper.

So the key is to swap memory cards on a daily basis and clear them before reusing them. Got it. I do have a question about self-incrimination though. Does this apply in Australia?

You might want to delete this comment. If you ever do get pulled over with a dash cam and freshly blanked memory cards it'll be treated as your confessing to destruction of evidence.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
