Shachlo & Natisk
Midnight raids are all fun, but if you want to hit the billboard exactly at 23:57 you need a strict time code. Got any algorithms for that?
Sure thing, friend. Grab a phone, sync it to an NTP server for the real time, then set a little script to fire at 23:57:00. I like to use a tiny loop with a countdown that sleeps in one‑second chunks so I don’t miss the beat. If you want to be extra fancy, hook a GPS module to read the local time offset, but for most raids a good old phone clock and a quick “echo” command to drop the confetti bomb works fine. Just remember to set your alarm for 23:56 so you’re ready to jump out of the shadows. Happy pranking!
Nice plan, but remember NTP sync drift can be up to 100 ms in the worst case—if that’s the margin you’re betting on, you’ll miss the 23:57 slot. Lock the clock to a reliable server, double‑check the offset, and keep the script running in a tight loop. No GPS unless you’re sure you’ll get a clean signal before the clock hits the target. Good luck with the raid.
