Quick idea - can you add the ability to create a reoccuring option... like Monday, Tues, Wed, Thur, Fri - at 7:30 - play ALARM.MP3.... also can you add a adjustable snoose???

Done! Added an option for events to happen regularly and the clock updates itself as such :p

hey thats awesome! I got it counting down until my B-day:) but umm, if you try to move an icon behind the counter (when its transparent on the desktop) the icon gets stuck. That may be something hard to fix, but I thought I'd let you know.

The CPU usage used to be really low, then I added milliseconds. Would anyone really miss it if I pulled them out again??

Latest version has the option of having just floating text, and no background.

I'll upload the source after this round of updates/fixes.

Well, if your like me and NEVER turn your computer off, you just need 4 varibles, VB, and a timer that tinks every one seconds.

Have a SEC, MIN, HR, DAY varibles and the tiemr control. Hell, here would eb the code.

Dim SEC, MN, HR, DAY as Integer

SEC = 0

MN = 0

HR = 0

DAY = 0

-------------------------------------

(on the timer set for 1000)

SEC = SEC + 1

If SEC >= 60 then

MN = MN + 1

SEC = 0

End if

If MN >= 60 then

HR = HR + 1

MN = 0

End if

If HR >= 24 then

DAY = DAY + 1

HR = 0

End if

If DAY >= 21 then

Label1.Caption = "PICK YOUR DAMN GIRLFRIEND UP!"

DAY = 0

End if

There ya go, its a hard coded 3 week count down. For the record, i use military time.

    • Anker announces global recall of five power bank models over fire safety risks by Aditya Tiwari The Chinese electronics brand, Anker Innovations, known for its mobile accessories and power banks has announced a voluntary global recall of five power bank models. The decision comes after the company spotted a potential fire hazard issue with lithium-ion battery cells from a particular vendor. Anker said that it put up a series of quality checks to detect manufacturing issues early in the production cycle, which include component level-audits and supplier testing. The company assured that "while the likelihood of malfunction is considered minimal, out of an abundance of caution, we have decided to initiate a voluntary global recall of several Anker power bank models." Here's the list of the Anker Power Bank models chosen for the global recall: Model A1257 - Anker Power Bank (10K, 22.5W) Model A1647 - Anker Power Bank (20,000mAh, 22.5W, Built-In USB-C Cable) Model A1652 - Anker MagGo Power Bank (10,000mAh, 7.5W) Model A1681 - Anker Zolo Power Bank (20K, 30W, Built-In USB-C and Lightning Cable) Model A1689 - Anker Zolo Power Bank (20K, 30W, Built-In USB-C Cable) If you think you own one of the affected power banks, you can check the model number located on the back or side of your power bank. After that, you can fill out the recall form to start the process and verify the serial number of your affected device. If your power bank is eligible for the recall, you can either get a replacement or receive a gift card for use on the Anker website. It's not offering any refunds in the US at the moment. Anker advises that you should stop using an impacted power bank immediately even if the device functions normally right now. A unit confirmed for the recall could pose the risk of overheating, melting, smoke, or fire. This is the second major recall from Anker in the same month after more than a dozen reports of fires and explosions. The company previously recalled over one million Anker PowerCore 10000 (A1263) power bank units, citing fire safety risks due to a potential issue with the Lithium-ion battery. These power banks were sold in the US from January 1, 2016 through December 31, 2022.

    • It is a great product though... in this case, I don't mind paying.
