Are you suggesting checking the date every frame vs scheduling long task every once in a long while? Can't tell if it is ironic or not, I'm sorry (damn Poe's law). But assuming not, it would be a lot more computationaly expensive to do that, timeouts are very optmized and they "give back" on the computer resources while in the meantime

No irony intended I can be this dumb. Your point did occur to me as I posted, was just grasping at straws for a "clean" solution
