Attached: 1 image If you begin #StarTrek: Voyager episode Spirit Folk at exactly 11:49:35 on New Year's Eve, Ensign Harry Kim will kiss a cow as the clock strikes midnight. It's an annual tradition, so join in the fun and start 2024 off on the right hoof.

    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.

            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

        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

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