Yes, it's perfectly logical that making a delay smaller moves something forward in time.
The problem is in figuring out which key you're supposed to hit when you're twisted awkwardly to look at the image on the wall while you're doing it, and you're trying to align lip movements (which are either early or late) with sounds.
"Pressing this moves the number backward so it moves the sound synchronisation point forward" is really not helpful -- particularly since, if you're into plus seconds, there is no delay to adjust!
Of course, the root cause and underlying problem is that developers think they're logical[^]

That's a minor nag compared to other things that are much simpler with PostgreSQL, like the database installation and distributing the database with your application.
I worked for years with SQL Server and never regretted switching to PostgreSQL

The biggest advantage of that DB-server is that it is available for free, on a free OS.

Have you tried Azure Data Studio[^]? It might do what you need, and it runs on Mac and Linux as well as Windows.

I have nothing in the cloud. I'm a developer; I'm not going to outsource data. It is in BCNF (3NF+), protected with one-time-pads (technically guaranteed unbreakable).
Sql Server runs on a Pi, costing you less than 50$, with (scientifically) guaranteed privacy. You can hook up multiple for that money to guarantee uptime.
Then again, Azure is cheaper than I am, and rightfully so

Except he didn't ask if you tried Azure, but Azure Data Studio which is "...a cross-platform database tool for data professionals using the Microsoft family of on-premises and cloud data platforms on Windows, MacOS, and Linux."
Save us your anti-cloud speech, it has nothing to do with the good advice Richard gave you

What software are you using to do and restore the backup? I've found that DBeaver works well enough for that.

How do you come up with these, bovine intervention? You must spend heifer day thinking of these. They are udderly ridiculous.

Just about everything about Office 365 sucks, in my opinion. Teams, Outlook, etc. Slack, for example, is so much more intuitive and easy to use. Take the example of adding another person to a chat conversation. You'd think the button would be over on the left side where the list of people are. No. It's on the far right, in the "conversation" section of the window. And it's a tiny and obscure icon. You'd think maybe right-clicking on the current person would bring up a "Would you, dear user who knows better than me, like to add another person to this conversation and can I do that for you as easily and simply as possible?" But noooo. And don't even get me started on the pathetic space utilization of the conversation window itself, where it seems the Microsoft UI designers have a specific psychological disorder to left justification, to maximizing width, well, to about anything that actually is visually usable. It seems like they are still designing for 640x480 EGA on 30lb CRT's.
Or simple things like, ok, I click that icon. Does the cursor position itself on the edit box where I can type in the name of the person I want to add? No. So all that typing I just did went into the lost keystroke bitbucket alongside dirty socks. Click on icon. Click on edit box. Sigh.
But to my point -- I often find an email by some keyword because I don't remember the person's name or email address (infrequent emails spanning several months), so I find the relevant email, hit reply, and edit the subject line.
Except I can't edit the subject line. Outlook doesn't let you change the subject like on a reply. WTF??? In GMail, you just click on the subject like to change it. And googling yields nothing useful. Even if it's me, 365 still sucks.
Office 365 - 365 days a year of annoyance, frustration, sh*tty user interface, yadayadayada

Outlook 2016 lets me change the subject line on a reply with no problem.
If you're using OWA, then you need to click the "Expand" button to the right of the sender's name - it looks like a double-ended arrow. You can then edit the subject.

I threw Office in the bin years ago and moved to LibreOffice instead. It's not perfect, or even close, but at least I don't have to pay for it every bloody day ... MS: stick your subscription model right where the sun doesn't shine. And I don't mean Wales.

I found Office 2019 as a one off purchase, no upgrade, no subscription. I also got sick of paying for it every year.
It is still a feature rich bloated suite.

yes, but like all ms products it is feature rich bloated.
think of all those features that you may one day need to use maybe once a decade though usually less
... ms have put a lot of research and effort into these, how would they have time to do fix mundane stuff.
saw in the daily news the c# team attempting to justify some of the latest changes, few people wanted them and many even objected also pointing out how trivial and even misleading and dangerous they were.
sigh, makes me wonder why would I replace the bald tires on my car when I could use that time and money to add another steering wheel.
