You Can Relax Now v1.0
« on: October 16, 2014, 02:42 PM »
My first submission to dc.com. The software is titled "You Can Relax Now" and is created to show the amount of days since Mayan Apocalypse. It runs on Windows (XP, at least) but can be used on Linux, Mac e.g. with emulation software. Here is screenshot of the my app for the October 16, 2014.

You can download software here: http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=08268638318335150391. By the way, if there is some Donation Coder hosting that can be used for my software, I would be very glad to use it.

It is written on completely free IDE titled Lazarus. Take a look on it.

Waiting for your feedback.
Sincerely yours, Dmytro.

P.S. Try changing the system clock.

Suggestion:
Let it randomly choose between other events people feared that have passed like the y2k bug, etc.

Will it work with other past and future apocalyptic predictions?

Not now. My mind is racing towards the next cool and crazy (more crazy) software ideas.

Okay gang, because I am too forgetful, I want y'all to keep watch.

We have an epic screenshot moment coming up!

It's late evening as I type this, so depending how the program works, I'll try to do it too. It's 665 days now. Soon to be:
"It is 666 days since the Mayan Apocalypse. You can relax now."

It would rock if it said something extra like "With tender love, Cthulu"

;D  :D

Funny, because I got the one I wanted! Must be an obscure program feature about timing.

Actually, this made me look - and I think my system clock was off by a day! I've had my sys clock hidden for months or more. I have no idea how it got off by a day. So I fixed that.

So I should have had it yesterday in the chat room!

But there, is the golden starter pic, a day late!

Per Mouser's suggestion a while back to donate a bit to new members from a few of his membership funds, I just donated a MouserBuck to you dmytron!
