I mean... I just stopped caring when we were having power outages every other day making me have to reset nearly every clock in the house. I'm tech savvy. But I am also lazy.

When you would low-key judge your friend's parents level of ~~tech-savvyness~~ laziness by noting if their VCR was always flashing 12:00
What time is it at Billy's house? 12 o clock! 12 o clock!
The only clock I don't bother setting was the one on our old coffee maker. It kept lousy time and would drift by a significant amount. We'd never use the timer functionality of it anyway so I just left the stupid thing be.
Long ago I had an alarm clock that docked with my original iPhone and it not only didn't support 24 hour time, but drifted. Remarkable.
I set the microwave clock when we moved into this apartment, and then a few times afterward when the breaker tripped, now i just donlt bother anymore. Thankfully it just defaults to saying 00:00 instead of 12:00 and it doesn't flash. If i need to know the time that badly i look at my phone anyway.
Mine didn’t have a clock so this never occurred to me
