I remember when I was young I could just turn on the TV, pick any channel, and I would watch a properly timed ball drop in New York.
Now? It took ages to find a new years countdown on youtube. Couldn’t find a decent option and eventually I settled on a tower in Texas that was in the central time zone.
Is there a good ball drop replacement for people who don’t own a TV and live purely online? It doesn’t need to be fancy, just count down without me having to synchronize watches -_-
I don’t even have TV and was still inundated with the NYC ball drop. It’s still named after Dick Clark, for goodness sake. How did you not find it and settle for a Texas copycat? What fascinating little silos we find ourselves in online.
Oh I found it, but it also was on eastern time. I’m in the central time zone. So without a syncronize step it was an hour ahead.
I was just looking for something to put in the background while my wife and I chilled. I just like to have that 10 second countdown ya know?
