This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Fun fact: The timer app doesn't even need to run in the background. When you started it, it recorded the start time. Now it's showing you now - then.

You could turn off your phone for 10 years, let the battery die, come back, reset the clock, and the timer will still be running!
