just saw the thing that says all times are completely random so trust no one and it made me laugh.

BTW what is up with the times?

    White noise doesn't.

    Actually, there is such a thing as random. However, that is why I named myself Random Chaos as opposed to ordered chaos.

    As for white noise, there can be a pattern to white noise - white noise function generators have such a pattern for instance.

    that was a random answer
  • SanfamSanfam I like clocks.
    Well, If I could set the clock, I would. I know post times can be useful, but after years of the various FO Owners bugging the server admins, nothing has happened. So that is, as we say, that.

    It used to say "All times are EST(US), but that wasn't true. Times are pretty much random relative to normal time. To me, it seems like a faulty timer on the server, because I've noticed a forward slide in the past few months.

    All they would have to do is have the server timesync to a master time server once a day to solve any time problems...incompetent fools...LOL

    White noise function generators are not generating true white noise, just an approximation of it.
