If you begin Star Trek: 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

milkisklim, Alright. Who actually did this? Time to come clean.
Jaccident, Despicable. I was reliably informed Harry lasted 22 minutes.
LackingGravitas, Happy Moo Year!
JackDark, Moogie!!

SpaceNoodle, Why don’t I remember this episode?

It is not good.*
*in my personal, but I think pretty uncontroversial, opinion.
MajorHavoc, I love that episode!
… But… Yeah. It’s not good. It’s kinda great. But not good.
SpaceNoodle, I started remembering bits after reading the synopsis. It’s whimsical, Leland.

Normal Voyager not good or Threshold not good?

Let me stop you at “the premise.”

Yeah, it’s definitely a bad episode, but it’s really just a pretty bog standard “new technology goes haywire” Trek episode. It was a good episode for RDM acting-wise, and the makeup effects for Paris’ deterioration were pretty great.
RampantParanoia2365, What?? Uh…somewhere in between.
Fades, I used to hate the fairhave episodes but they grew on me, not good but campy

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

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.
.
stoy, You can use Task Scheduler in windows to run a command to run VLC at a specific time
Ledivin, 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

I’m not sure the people who engage in this sort of tomfoolery are concerned with atomic clock-level precision.
RizzRustbolt, You mean nerds? Because I’m pretty sure there are.

When you’re logical, you’re logical.
RizzRustbolt, Logical Tomfoolery sounds like the title of a nerdcore rap album.
i_stole_ur_taco, I’m happy to contribute to this project.

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