My wife prefers the madness of memorizing the offset of the displayed time versus the current time. It's not even an integer number of hours. It's just some random value since the last power outage.
This valueable observation will help you differentiate her from an AI imposter at some point as the AI imposter would get stuck in an infinite loop with this type of behavior.
Daylight savings are so stupid. Savings are actually minimal and it's bad for your health. If everyday you wake up at 7 your body will wake up without an alarm, now wake up at 6 because it's a new 7. I'm sure you will wake up no problem. Now we will change it every 6 months so you will always need alarm.
God! I hate it!
I wonder if we could set up all your devices to get that data from something like radio/Bluetooth. Then have your router/small device just send out the time from ntp and all your devices can just accept the message
That way you don't need an internet connected microwave
If you're going to make your device capable of setting its clock via radio, then it wouldn't need to get its time from your router because it could just receive the signal straight from the atomic clock at NIST.
My car as a separate clock on the dash and one on the nav screen. I keep them a hour apart and just attend to the correct one depending on the time of year.
If you think this is insane, maybe think about how insane it is that we still do this dst bullshit at all and vote for politicians like those in Mexico that are willing to drop this shit.
I genuinely worry that as more clocks update themselves we will become complacent and will never be free from this tyranny.

But maybe we could reach a point where the clocks update every night so instead of shifting an hour at a time twice per year we can shift 20 seconds per day. I haven't put much thought into this but I think it's the next best solution after leaving the god damned clocks alone.
We just switched to daylight saving, which happens during the summer. You kept it on saving time, not standard time, when you didn't change it in the fall.
I used to be like that. Then at some point, time became a part of my job and now because of this stupid government, I spent 15 minutes stress-running around fixing everything twice a year.
