Ford to build cars out of ketchup.

(Okay, they're ACTUALLY talking about making internal car parts - cupholders and the like - out of processed tomato byproducts like skins and stems and stuff that Heinz doesn't use in ketchup. But my headline was better.)

Today I learned:

TIL: The Windows "shutdown" command's custom timeout feature - letting you set how soon you'd like to execute the shutdown or reboot - has an upper limit of 315360000 seconds.

Ten years.

You can schedule a reboot on a Windows machine for "ten years from now, to the second".

Today's challenge: Find a good reason to want to do that.

(Source: start -> cmd -> "shutdown /?")
