You can change the idle screen on a Roku?

Stop watching it for a good, long while. It will go to that screensaver.

One of my friends watches the Roku screensaver more than actual TV shows or movies.

I am not sure if this is more a statement to the quality of TV shows and movies or the quality of the screensaver.

When I was looking for a pic of the screensaver eel, I found that there are multiple 3-4 hours long videos on YouTube of the screensaver.

Not on my TV.

Even if there's no money being made, the people on the trolley have places to be and will whine endlessly.  If I had a dollar for every time I heard some version of "They shouldn't have been on the tracks, why do I have to be late" I wouldn't have to hear it any more.

Look for the GRM thread about the 2014 RallyCross National Championship.  It became a meme to say "but we have cars to run!" when the course was showing signs of issues.

RallyCross is fun in part because the course conditions are different for every run, and since all runs count you need a combination of aggressiveness and adaptability to a course that may be faster or slower than you remember it from the last run, because the course will improve or degrade as cars drive on it. You need to both be prepared to exploit improvements to the fullest but also be cautious enough to not screw up majorly where it degrades. 

It's difficult for the event organizers in that the course can degrade to the point that it may need to be changed mid run group, which is kind of verboten at a national level event, so if you make a running change, everyone who ran the pre changed course needs to make that run all over again.  Or the run gets scrubbed from the totals.

It seems like for dirt there should be some allowance for course damage.

Thanks anyway, speed limit signs shown on my instrument cluster or Google maps, but I already have physical signs I ignore.

When cars start rolling, safety dictates that you should change the course so you aren't going over a fresh rut in an off camber corner (and why is there an off camber corner in the first place).  The "allowance" is if you make a change, everyone who ran on the pre-changed course has to run again, or the run is scrubbed from the totals.  If the change is a half second faster or slower then there will be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

You have a speedometer that works?
