I want to use C# to shutdown the computer at a specified date and time in the past, Is it possible or do I have to use CPP for such things?

You need to use T++ to use the Tachyon class and affect past events.

A question just appeared, which basically sums up to "I want to use C# to start my computer at a specified date and time" I'm not suggesting in any way that you should go and abuse him - please don't - but am I getting too old for this? Do they not teach people that computers don't run software when the power is off anymore? Banging your head on a desk is wonderful; it feels so good when you stop...

Call oversea tech support and have them read from a manual. :-\ Is the green light on?

It can be done. Pretty simple. See sharply and concentrate on teh computer. Then, use your internal positive energy to channel external negative energy towards computer. Wait till eternity and it will be done.

Great tnx Griffy, I've downloaded the cTachReverseulator dll v3.4.6. The code seems to be working but I get this exception: "Access denied while trying to shift global Datetime.Now, reason: Insufficient read/write permissions to specific time point." But I am an admin! :sigh: Do you know if there's a coming GA or a patch?

The question is not as stupid as it seems, since you can do it over LAN (assuming that the computer has a power connection and the PSU is capable of having a standby mode, which then still powers the ethernet card). This technology is not new and is called "Wake-on-LAN". It just requires an ethernet connection with APM or ACPI being available on the main board and the eth. card. What one could do is either programming some timer on a router (very popular choice) or building a custom solution, which then uses some other computer on the network or involves a micro-controller.

Some industrial PC's include hardware that let you shutdown the machine and then restart at a later time, either based on time-of-day or after an interval. They can also start based on I/O or network signals. That said, I somehow doubt the Q&A question was based on that.

What do you care? The rest of us vote for people that when given the chance will prove us wrong, so we just go: "O, he's been taken down by corruption" and move on to vote for the next would be failure. Isn't democracy just a long unnoticed sleeping pill?

Probably not a discussion for the Lounge. I start to swear copiously when I think about most politicians... OT: Google wants to replace the "swear" with "sweat" under it's suggestion rules in the above. Thinking about it, it both are pretty accurate!

What I find even more worrying is the number of questions that make it clear that the poster is being taught to do things the wrong way.
Use the best guess
It may be a global phenomenan. However, it is very prevalent in my location where those not in the programming field try and enter it without any prior knowledge. If they read a few books before starting, they would be better off.
