赛博摸鱼员 is a desktop gadget conceived by Object Yan to serve as a discreet yet informative companion for office workers who want to keep track of their real working hours against China’s shifting holiday and compensatory-rest calendar. Built with WPF, the 1.0.1 release (the second public iteration) embeds a holiday-adjustment algorithm that automatically recognises nationwide swap-working days and corresponding overtime rules, then recalculates “net working time” by stripping unpaid breaks and statutory leave. A configurable payday counter further lets users project the exact number of days left until the next salary deposit, while an optional “toxic chicken-soup” feed scrolls sarcastic motivational quotes across the translucent widget to mirror the shared sentiment of the cubicle crowd. Because the panel can be pinned to any screen edge or set to auto-hide, it occupies minimal screen estate and is suited to persistent reference during video calls, code sprints, spreadsheet marathons, or any task where glancing at a calendar or mental math would break flow. The gadget is categorised under Desktop Enhancements › Clocks & Timers, yet its core value lies in labour-aware time analytics rather than simple chronometry. Both distributed versions—1.0.0 and the current 1.0.1—are unsigned single-executable files that run on any Windows station with .NET 6 desktop runtime, requiring no installation or administrator rights and updating by simply replacing the EXE. The software is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads provided via trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always delivering the latest version and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
