• Do you accurately track your time?

  If you want to do this independent of the PSA agent you can look at ActivityWatch to run on your own systems. If you really want to you can go into the Activity section of the Dashboard and get a pretty detailed view of what you had open, and you can use the Category Builder to auto-assign things to work, social media, etc. Source: 11 months ago

• Figuring out and keeping track of your Sims 2 playtime: A Reticulated Guide

  ActivityWatch is another free software that allows you to keep track of your playtime, although that's an oversimplification of what it really is because it keeps track of all the windows you've opened on your computer. The main purpose of this app is helping with productivity, as it gives you a clue of what you've done on your PC and for how long. Source: 12 months ago

• Richard Linklater by his early twenties, he was seeing six hundred films a year

  I do the same but digitally. Along with songs listened to (Last.fm) and letters typed/mouseclicks (whatpulse.org). I don't think it's autism, especially since the latter two are automatic, but a big obsession with tracking things haha. Source: over 1 year ago

• Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here! (37/2022)!

  I am trying to make a clone of WhatPulse which is software that tracks key presses. The reason it needs to loop a certain amount per second is due to accuracy and timing of the presses. Source: over 1 year ago

• WhatPulse Alternative V5. My first usable project.

  I used a program called WhatPulse to monitor the number of keyboard and mouse clicks. I had issues with it so I decided to make my own which currently has ~150 lines of code (+30 compared to last time). Source: over 2 years ago
