If you write it in computer-speak (YYYYMMDD), it is a palindromic date

20200202

Cool!
It is often written like that in Sweden.

So is this a palindromic date:

02022020

Why do you call it "computer-speak"?

I started using YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS in the military in the 60's

damo · 2020-02-02 18:53:34

Yeah, I just realised they are both reversible 8o

If file names start with "YYYYMMDD" then they sort automatically by time - that's why I said "computer-speak". But "military-speak" might do!

Sector11 · 2020-02-02 20:34:33

shhhh it is actually an international standard, that to the best of my knowledge dates back to the early 70's - today it's called: ISO-8601

But this isn't about that - it's about 1 unique day.

01-01-0101 = 0101-01-01
02-02-0202 = 0202-02-02
03-03-0303 = 0303-03-03
01-01-1010 = 1010-01-01
11-11-1111 = 1111-11-11
12-12-1212 = 1212-12-12 <<-- EDIT: WRONG!!!
02-02-2020 = 2020-02-02 «««--- The last of it's kind, unless my brain is failing me.

But this is an essential piece of naming files that should never be overlooked:

one "-" and HHMMSS without the : as some programs do not like those double-dots, makes a cool filename.

or
20200202-220022.jpg

I use:

scrot -s '%F_%H%M%S_S11.jpg' -e 'mv $f /media/5/images/ ; mirage /media/5/images/$f'

for:
/media/5/images/2020-02-02_173020_S11.jpg

They still sort just fine.

AHA! My brain failed me! And look at that 909 years and 101 for the next one.

12-12-2121 = 2121-12-12

And so obvious too ... but then hindsight usually is.

Thanks Martin

You sure are so entertaining there S11 8o

Sector11 · 2020-02-04 03:44:41

TY I try .... by the way no one picked up on it.

palindromic = 909 and 101

O/T: imgbb has square thumbnails for some reason, which is why I am using imgur for most posts now

EDIT: I like square thumbnails - they look like my real ones.

Imgur's "privacy" link is at the bottom of the front page.
Imgbb's is frontpage>about>privacy
So I don't see much difference there.

Imgur's privacy statement is much longer and more complicated than imgbb's. It looks worse, but that could also be taken for honesty. I'm not sure if a simple "all your data is safe" statement stands up in the reality of today's internet. In that sense imgur's warning about third party identity aggregators is just the way things are IMO.

Your data isn't safe with any internet service provider, especially free ones who depend on advertising revenue. Just do what you can, and don't believe anyone.

Guys, I'm scared. Isn't this how The Ring ends? Isn't this how Close Encounters of the Third Kind begins?

SNEAKY! I like sneaky! Cool stuff. More than one way to "nail" an image.

My last wallpaper on deviantart is like a walk in the park for that scene.
