The Daily Check in For Friday 4th October 2024 - Just for Today, we are not drinking!
Good morning fellow sobernauts, IWNDWYT đ!
We may be anonymous strangers on the internet, but we have one thing in common. We may be a world apart, but weâre here together!
Welcome to the 24 hour pledge! Iâm pledging myself to not drinking today, and invite you to do the same.
Maybe youâre new to c/stop drinking and have a hard time deciding what to do next. Maybe youâre like me and feel you need a daily commitment or maybe youâve been sober for a long time and want to inspire others.
It doesnât matter if youâre still hung over from a three day bender or been sober for years, if you just woke up or have already completed a sober day. For the next 24 hours, letâs not drink alcohol!
[I am experimenting with using a post scheduler, if it does weird funky stuff, Iâll stop doing that].
Holy shit! Itâs already April 10th!!! Just kidding just kidding. Just a little âacross the pondâ humor for you. I will not drink with you today! Happy Friday and happy weekend!
[actual, boring explanation: there's a bit of code in the post scheduler that inserts the current date in the header, and this is the format it uses, rather than the format we've been using with the manual posts].
I'm using the post scheduler someone kindly created here https://schedule.lemmings.world and I think just need to play around with the date injection code. I think if I change the current "m" to an "F" it should work, so I'll fiddle with it after I've had my coffee.
Yeah, looks like the âFâ should do it. Looks way over complicated for what we need specifically for this sub. If it doesnât work out, maybe Iâll poop out a much simpler python script.
Haha, no worries. Itâs us yanks that do dates weird. Like shouldnât it be least specific to most, or most to least? DD-MM-YYYY or YYYY-MM-DD. Why would you ever swap around the month and the day?
