Idk maybe, just maybe. Add a cheap AF coin battery like for example motherboards to keep the internal clock alive.
Epic trick dear manufacturers. Well maybe it will cost them 0.05€ more per device… That means less Ferraris for the CEOs so idk about that.
Imagine this… let’s all carry around pocket computers that sync with atomic clocks, they can the use low power radios to set cheap clocks… cough… bluetooth current time service… cough…

Appliances:
Its 12:00
Always has been!
(Also the universe was created last thursday. Have fun!)
Elevators in the office building where I work have screens that run ads, but also have time and date in the corner. It resets every couple of days, so basically every day is in January 1970
Casual ads inside an elevator in an office building? This is the true dystopian future
I’d rather take the stairs (for up to ~10 floors)
My apartment complex also has ads inside elevator. Is it that bad?
Hope I’m not alone in this - Appliances should only have relative timers.
It only needs to know how to run a program for 30 min, or activate with a delayed start in 5h. Clock time is meaningless for an oven.Appliance companies, are you listening? Hint: they’re not, circuitry design and manufacture has been outsourced so much they probably don’t even know where they get it from.
