Why is time still difficult to keep outside of portable devices and computers? I don't want to sync time using a radio signal from Colorado. I don't want to flip a DST switch or replace a single AA once a year.I want to plug-in a GPS dongle to my router and serve accurate correct time to all of my clocks. The only consumer solution I found is at american-time.com. These clocks are about $250 a piece. Why? Why isn't there a $40 Wi-Fi clock on Amazon?
Because it’s not real
> want a wall clock that syncs to a local ntp serverHave you tried searching "ntp wall clock" on Amazon? I see a few under $50 that let you assign an ntp server.
>>108189573Brother you're using this to calculate when you should take your chicken tendies off your oven just sync every month or so.
>>108189746My mom cooks my tendies.
define time
>>108189956it's a cube
>iot clockbruh the hackers will make you clock slow by an hour so you are late and miss your appointments :skull:
>>108189956Something I spend a lot of with ur mom
You can find 1000 "smart" clocks for under $50. Has dumbass OP heard of amazon? Inquiring minds want to know. Sage.

>>108189573t. actual time scientist to answer your question it's not hard, you are just cheap. the reason it's "hard" for you to keep portable time is because you are only able to afford quartz oscillators, which are what you'll find in almost all modern non-winding clocks and the RTC clocks in your computer.If you don't want to sync time from WWV you don't have to. You are choosing to receive coordinated standard time from the US government and no one is making you do that but you.Enterprise systems use something called PTP for time distribution, and most large enterprises have either a local clock ensemble or at least a network card which can propagate time. If you want to synchronize your own local time on all your clocks, radio is the primary solution because WWV is available and there are worldwide equivalents. If you don't want to use the free radio signal your tax dollars pay for, get creative and set up a local rubidium/GPS source and buy used electric clocks similar to American time which can be programmed via an analog 12V signal, or make your own. If you have further questions feel free to ask, this is actually my day job.
>>108191733>time scientist
>>108189573get one of these
>>108189573>I don't want to sync time using a radio signal from ColoradoWhy not? It does the same thing you'd get from a GPS signal, but with a smaller antenna and significantly less complicated circuitry to process it.
>>108192621or one of these
>>108193023you sure? its owned by a chinese company.
>>108193023>>108193069I only use free and open source time
>>108189573>Why isn't there a $40 Wi-Fi clock on Amazon?did you even look?
>>108193211I looked, but I didn't see those.
>>108193261op specified he didn't want to use the radio time sync signal, though i don't really understand why unless he's somewhere that can't pick it up
>>108193279It only works early in the AM on particular walls in my home.
>>108189573because there are a billion little inconsistences with time. honestly it seems like one of the harder things to deal with programatically, though i've only ever used a library
>>108193261>>108193279Wouldn't this only work for Americans? There is no shot these work on any country. Only possibly on those with atomic clocks.
>>108193460there are systems for other countries, idk if every country has an equivalent
>>108189573If you’re worried about the government fucking with the time signal from WWV, just know that they also own the GPS satellites you plan to useBuild your own atomic clock anon. But be sure to install gentoo on it.
>>108193481There are equivalents mostly in the northern hemisphere.
>>108193522Not a surprise, Global Southerners are all lazy fucks who wouldn't do anything on time if they had accurate clocks
>>108193211Imagine connecting a fucking CLOCK to wifiThanks for the free reverse shell / proxy / whatever China needs your network for
>>108193544Why would my clock need internet access?
>>108193305Thats because most WWVB Atomic clocks suck>>108193261Right brand but wrong clock. Their Ultratomic clock is the one you want if you have reception issues since It picks up the WWVB Phase modulated signal. I have mine in the basement of a 120 year old office building filled with horse hair plaster mesh and brick walls next to our server room and its been dead on accurate for over 3 years and should go for 5 years since it uses 4 C cell batteries. Only problem is you cant get the glass version anymore and Trump might kill off WWVB for reasons.
>>108189956>t. Augustine
>>108193592To get the time, anon.
>>108193663>and Trump might kill off WWVB for reasons.I would be mad as fuck, I just got this a few months ago.
>>108193816Casio is going to release a MIP version soon.
>>108193825Neat, I really like this one after getting it properly charged up. It's a lot more comfortable than my smartwatch was.

>>108189622>Because it’s not realIT's relative but there is spacetime that started when God ran universe.exe and started the causal chain, it's a time that's local to our universe process of course not the system clock although it has a 'quantum' relationship with it.
>>108193986chuckle no, time is curved it is not flat. Mass bends time.
>>108189956time is what a clock measures.
>>108193986I like to think of it this way, the more complex it is to render a large dense object, the more the FPS slows and time curves For effecient memeory use our universe.exe only renders ojects when they are observed. There is avtuall nothing outdide the wall of your room than a black void but when you go and look at it is gets rendered. The universe expanding is the bootloader allocating storage for use. A cosmic malloc.
>>108194125Og you need time to have a causal chain, an execuable is in stasis until it is executed and time commences in that process. There was no time in our5 process unitil God ran universe.exe, no infinite regression or loop. That's how you know God exists outside our spacetime. Or outside of time if you like

>The second [...] is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the caesium frequency, the unperturbed ground-state hyperfine transition frequency of the caesium 133 atom, to be 9192631770 when expressed in the unit Hz, which is equal to s^-1Gee I wonder why.
>>108191733>If you don't want to use the free radio signal your tax dollars pay forWhy the fuck are my tax dollars paying for the existence of time for everyone else?Let them live in stasis
>>108194135>Oh you need time to have a causal chain, an execuable is in stasis until it is executed and time commences in that process. There was no time in our5 process unitil God ran universe.exe, no infinite regression or loop. That's how you know God exists outside our spacetime. Or outside of time if you like"The "Day Without Yesterday": Lemaître argued that by tracing the expansion of the universe backward, one must arrive at a point where the entire universe was concentrated into a single, incredibly dense, and hot point.

>>108194160How do you know which are avatars, which are NPCs and which are AIs like you though? The NPCs are probably only rendered when observed.
>>108194160https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sherlock_(video_game)The game is notorious for a large number of surreal and amusing bugs due to the complex potential interactions between characters. For example:[citation needed]Policemen can still talk, and obstruct Holmes, while unconscious.Hansom cab drivers can blame Holmes for anyone who fails to pay their fare anywhere on the map, can be used to force improper objects (such as trains) to appear inside cabs, and can be confused into driving the player into a null location which is used as the store for nouns, allowing Holmes to pick up items such as "innocent", "your alibi" and "an opium den".Inspector Lestrade normally arrests the wrong man early in the game, causing a Game Over unless Holmes has shown the man's innocence; however, Holmes can also wait for Lestrade to get in a cab, then tell his cabbie from outside to drive to a random location, causing Lestrade to freeze because he doesn't know what to do there.Watson is described as "the only character with a memory", but if the player allows Watson to see too many events happening, his memory overflows the available RAM of the system and the game crashes.
>>108194144>>I like to think of it this way, the more complex it is to render a large dense object, the more the FPS slows and time curves For effecient memeory use our universe.exe only renders ojects when they are observed.Dark matter is an invisible, hypothetical form of matter that does not interact with light or electromagnetic force, comprising roughly 85% of all matter in the universe. Its existence is inferred through gravitational effects, such as binding galaxies together and enabling, rather than hindering, the formation of cosmic structures. It acts as invisible "scaffolding" for the universe.when you are playing doom what is behind you is not rendered. only what you can observe. There is no missing 'dark matter' because it has not been rendered because it has not been observed
The degree to which time is bent by mass is indicative of the computational resources allocated to our process.
>>108194164I like thinking about the heat death where everything reaches maximum entropy and time ceases to exist because without change there is no time.
>>108194242>without change there is no time.no there would still be space time athough the thread could get suspended and pause it, it's likley universe.exe will end due to problems allocating more memory.
>>108192005
>>108194242The question is, have you been saved?
>>108189956now - past
>>108194276Yes, the photon was only rendered when observed but every process needs a local time for causual chains to occur. Time in a process communences when it is executed and allocated memory
>>108194260>there would still be space timeEffectively though it would be static because from one moment to the next nothing would change. The arrow of time becomes meaningless because you've essentially reached eternity. You wouldn't even be able to observe it as no more work could be done.>>108194271Only if they clicked the floppy icon.
>>108194289chuckle, no. You can revert to a saved state or snapshot though.
>>108194300>Only if they clicked the floppy icon.I'm hoping we've all been saved. Later dude.
>>1081899569192631770 vibration of caesium atom is 1 sec which is time
>>108194135You are looking at this from a myopic af point of view due to staying within a codefag mindset. The way things happen in the universe are not like the way things happen inside a computer.Per example, while prior events can modify the probabilitic cloud of a quantum event, the outcome is fully random, meaning that there isn't anything causing a specific outcome rather than another. If you measure the exact position of an electron in an atom and it happens to be at position A, there is no way of explaining why it is there instead of being at position B. There is no causal event forcing that difference to happen.For all we know, the existance/non existance of the universe itself could be an outcome of a purely random event with no cause forcing the "existance" outcome to happen.
You can make one with an ESP32 if you really wanted.
>>108194271The only question worth asking.
>>108194951https://youtube.com/shorts/nXIHYB0Gp70 I beg to differ.
