@martinkubler @afewbugs @timtfj Oh yes, the shipping forecast. Great idea. So soothing. Kind of hypnotic.
@CiaraNi @martinkubler @afewbugs And poetic.

@zipkid Oh they'll play the national anthem at full volume, so it'll wake you up.

@CiaraNi Bed early now, you've Mastodon in the morning.
@psneeze I saw this literally as the clock hit 5 minutes to midnight so I better take it literally. I just need my server administrator to put up the test card and then I'll be off to the leaba.

@jlperuyero The older we get, the more radical we get, I think. In the best way!

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." At 5 minutes to midnight, Eugen flashes the lights. At midnight, Mastodon plays your national anthem. You stand. You finish singing the last line with a little cheer and go to bed. Your home timeline transmits the Test Card. The Fediverse will resume transmission at 0600 hours. Even the reply guys will come back well-rested.

Yeah, but what time zone? -
@CiaraNi
We also need Jack Horkheimer the Star Hustler, but unfortunately I think he died. I can still remember the Star Hustler theme music, (Debussey), just before the station would sign off the air for the night.@CommonSparrow @CiaraNi I share the nostalgia for the guy who taught my high school pals and I to chant, “Alnilan, Alnitak, and Min-taka!”

@CiaraNi To take the analogy further, us here over on the west coast are looking around and saying "but it's mid-evening".
"Well-rested."
"But-"
"WELL. RESTED."

@CiaraNi
Someone could probably build this as a custom front end or something? -
@CiaraNi
Just use the "countries" from back in #FediVision? Each anthem can be one of the entries.
@afewbugs @timtfj -
@timtfj @martinkubler @afewbugs Yes, poetic too
@CiaraNi
Could have some actual poetry read out just before the anthem as a less-localised replacement? Maybe some of @brianbilston 's work or something?

@CiaraNi We had a station here that played this “gem” right before the test screen.
