are there any technical utilities to achieve these kinds of very specific 'start times'?

in other words.. it would be neat if there was a VLC/Jellyfin/Kodi plugin (some sort of video player) that you could schedule to start a video, to the second.

I'm not sure the people who engage in this sort of tomfoolery are concerned with atomic clock-level precision.

You mean nerds? Because I'm pretty sure there are.

When you're logical, you're logical.

Logical Tomfoolery sounds like the title of a nerdcore rap album.

You can use Task Scheduler in windows to run a command to run VLC at a specific time

You'd have to run a few tests to figure out how long it takes to start and open the file, though - there will definitely be a delay

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

You'd have to take load times into account, maybe have VLC open and ready and have task scheduler press the space bar with autohotkey

Use a clock.

You can set up a command line to start VLC using the OS's built in task scheduler.

Why don't I remember this episode?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 10 months ago

Well, are you wearing 18th century garb and using a weak Irish accent? Cause I may have some bad news for you.

It is not good.*

*in my personal, but I think pretty uncontroversial, opinion.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

I love that episode!

... But.... Yeah. It's not good. It's kinda great. But not good.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

I used to hate the fairhave episodes but they grew on me, not good but campy

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

I started remembering bits after reading the synopsis. It's whimsical, Leland.

Normal Voyager not good or Threshold not good?

What?? Uh...somewhere in between.

Despicable. I was reliably informed Harry lasted 22 minutes.

Alright. Who actually did this? Time to come clean.
