Back in the 90s and early 00s when I was in HS and college, going to the video store and finding gems like this and watching them at midnight so I could return the tape the next day made movie watching much more of an adventure. I enjoy my streaming services, but might suffer a bit from too much choice. The closest I get now is when I watch some movie I never heard of because it is on Netflix’s removal list.
As someone who seems to have a 36 hour circadian rhythm, my life would be dramatically better if I could pause time to sleep when needed, actually been a dream of mine for about 25 years
No need, you just allocate users to servers depending on theie average sleep/wake cycle nd bounce the servers one at a time, when usage is at a minimum. Ever had one if those late night brain’s gone blank moments? Now you know.
I’ve just spotted your username, I feel sure one of your relations had some sort of run in with the sysops already, and now you’re trying to convince people that there can’t be server reboots? Suspicious. Very suspicious.
We wouldn’t even know if He had to turn it off and back on again a couple times.
That happens nightly unless a user is still running which causes the next day to run all slow and laggy
That’s a pivotal plot point of Dark City
I remember watching that in highschool, probably influenced me than I know
Same. I watched it all the time

I’m fairly certain that would be impossible to have all users logged off at the same time
Just pause time itself. There, everyone is sleeping.

I swear to Oracle that if you make my mouth disappear I will put you on a bus with a speed sensitive explosive

Promptly get stuck in a boobytrapped express elevator.
