Freezer7Pro: I don't come here a lot anymore.; +1,447|6205|Winland

(Posting in EE, as there are more people here than in Tech, and it's not really a tech question anyhow)

I've been looking and trying different ones, but none of them really do what I want. I need a clock screensaver (Preferrably digital and non-flashy), that will run fine (and show 24h) without any configuration at all. The reason for this is that I'm going to use it when logged out on my media computer, so it can act as a large, and infinitely cool 15" wall clock.

I have one right now that's pretty ok, but it only shows 12h, which is gay.

Gogogo!

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

That's the same one I have now. It only does 12h without config.

Because he's too much of a dumbass to know whether it's am or pm

It's the only logical explanation I can give, seriously.

It's because I once had a 12h clock, woke up at 1am on a Wednesday, went "SHIT!!!", got dressed and ran halfway to school before realizing that it was night. Never again.

I posted that almost an hour ago, but it didn't work :S

How can you not notice the difference between 1 hour past high noon and 1 hour past midnight? You ran halfway to school in darkness. Uh?

#1, why would you run to school in the dark (surely that would clue you in)?

#2, 12h clocks have this cool thing called AM/PM...

#3, why would you run to school at 1 after missing the whole day? You'll get like, an hour in?

I found that one too, but I didn't mention it because you can only use it for 15 days unless you wanna pay $15 (~ €10) for it.

In late summer and mid winter, there's hardly any difference between noon and night here. And halfway to school is about 50 meters As for windows, I never have mine open.
