i have a view which uses Sort - Global: Random and this works fine, but it updates every time the view/url is refreshed/accessed. is there a way to make it so the view pulls a random item every 24 hours or some other set period of time as a way for making a "daily item" view and to prevent it from refreshing or being different for each user who accesses it at a different moment in the day? or, is there some other way to select a daily(periodically)-updated view?

Have you tried the Caching
Have you tried the Caching option under Basic Settings? It looks like it might do what you want (though the caching lifetime isn't very configurable).
