It’s always 00:00 o’clock, 24 hours a day.

I’m getting there but I can’t believe this is still not a solved problem:

• smart watch synchronous time
• home automation hub keeps time over programmable switch
• kitchen clock is an Alexa accessory so time is synched
• microwave is “efficient”, meaning I can’t get the damn clock to stay on
• expensive coffeemakers don’t have clocks

“Atomic” and Ethernet clocks exist but why is there still so little variety and are not in appliances? I just got a decorative clock and spent way too much time looking for an atomic or Ethernet one that I liked before settling on one I have to set twice a year plus whenever the batteries die

My power goes out like once a month. At least I also pay some of the highest electricity prices in the world in exchange for that reliability….

Just gave up on setting my microwave clock because of random power outages

I am “all the clocks in the kitchen set” gang.

Analogue one on the wall, microwave and oven. If they drift I’ll fix them.

It’s a busy house. Two of the kids get the train to school and minutes matter to them so in the morning you’ll frequently hear “time check” from one room and whoever’s in the kitchen (or has their phone to hand) will shout back the answer. It just makes things that tiniest bit smoother.

Be me waiting for the minute on my phone to change so I can simultaneously press the clock button on the microwave and oven twice a year.

True. My microwave drifts quite excessively. However it can give a reliable time together with the oven. The oven was designed by some crazy ppl and thus it’s almost impossible to change the time. It’s usually correct with the minutes and doesn’t seem to drift, but for half of the year it’s wrong because of daylight saving. Combined with the microwave that is probably like 5-20 minutes ahead but at least close tot he right hour you can get a good sense of the actual time.

I in no way can relate to this. In fact the microwave is the most visible clock in the house, given its location. As such it’s always set against if the power blinks out or whatever.

Not sure why we’re throwing the Casio F-91W under the bus for this joke - the thing runs for years on one battery and only shifts off true time at like 1 second per year. They’re more accurate than alot of Casio’s more luxurious models even.

My microwave deserves the slander, though. Mechanical watches too, though they’re still nice to use. Speaking of which, I need to buy a sundial so I can keep my watch accurate after the US and its power grid collapses. Time keeping’s such a hassle sometmes.

My casio watch is radio controlled and solar powered

A person with one watch always knows what time it is; a person with two watches never does.

My appliances don’t drift much at all, but my Nissan car is fucked. That dash clock drifts by 5 minutes monthly.

I have no clock in my apartment. To find out what time it is, I need to fire up one of my computers and look. Sometimes it’s the kindle

I got this!

• 80s faux wood alarm clock

• Stove clock

• 70s Pioneer power audio digital timer

• 40s General Electric wall clock (with new guts)

• 5 Casios, including that one

• 3 Swatches

• Handmade (mostly) bathroom clock

My cellphone also has a clock.

Does anybody really care? 🎷
