A Fediverse bot that posts a GIF at 10 minutes to midnight of your server administrator saying "Time now, everybody - last toots at the bar."

@rstub Yes, me too. That's what was I imagining. Not a 'screensaver' style graphic with any kind of movement, but a good old-fashioned static test card.

@amiserabilist Ha - nice. The Alt Text too.

@CiaraNi @Janet_52square @dheadshot @afewbugs But it means the answer to my original question is "No you can't unless you change instances"! Which is quite a cumbersome way to let each of us choose what's played to us . . .

@timtfj Would definitely be a lot of effort just to choose the music

@CiaraNi @Janet_52square @dheadshot @afewbugs Especially in the 10 mins before closing time, having forgotten the need to earlier

@timtfj Indeed @Janet_52square @dheadshot @afewbugs

@CiaraNi @MamaLake In Japan the department stores play Auld Lang Syne at closing time.

@Janet_52square @ColesStreetPothole @CiaraNi @dheadshot @afewbugs The trouble is, it does, in my experience. But the garden's idea of what it should be and how much space should be left for humans doesn't coincide with mine . . .

@oheso @MamaLake Auld Lang Syne is played to signal Store Closing in Japan - that is amazing and unexpected new information to me. I am very pleased to know this - thanks for sharing it.
