When I look at this I think “Well my phone is an alarm clock.” But then I think “What if my phone doesn’t go off?” And then I counter my thought with “do I really want two alarm clocks to go off every day?”
Eventually I come to the truth. “you don’t even need an alarm clock, most of the time you get up to go pee at roughly the time you need to get up anyway.”
@shawn_mitch@werehatrack I’m thinking it would increase the cats’ enthusiasm. But these are cats we are talking about. We all know how random and unpredictable cats can be.
@mediocrebot@warpedrotors@xobzoo Even those pointy hot incandescent tubes add to the suggestion that hitting the snooze button is probably a poor choice.
I.looked at the headline & thought Why not include a radio? They waited until the four thousandth paragraph to mention that it’s also an FM radio. Duh.
@Kyeh I do recall learning about his pen name, but it’s tucked so far back in the recesses of my memory that I forget…but I’m guessing it had to do with a question mark? I’ll have to look it up.
(lack of) available images and the product website compatibility list lead me to believe this was designed to fit iPhones. Did anyone st Meh put one of the current S23/24 Samsung behemoths on it?
@MINUANO68 Without clicking the link, this made me think of a drone alarm clock which would lift off and avoid being slapped until the person had actually gotten out of bed.
@MINUANO68@werehatrack I believe thinkgeek had something like that back in the day. The alarm clock had a little spinner disc on top that would take off and it wouldn’t stop going off until it was replaced.
So this thing needs to be charged also? An alarm clock that won’t wake you up if the battery is depleted before wake time? That’s as fallible as the smartphone it purports to keep charged!
@jmill099 Since they say nothing about battery capacity, I suspect that any internal power source is a backup for time maintenance only. I don’t have one, and haven’t read the furnished materials (assuming there are any), so I don’t know.
A picture of the controls would be nice, or a link to the user manual. I’ve been burned before by clock radios that look okay but are horrible to use, particularly when you’re half asleep. You hit what you think is the snooze button and wind up resetting the thing!

@mediocrebot OHHH yeah, that’s more like it. The longer you look the worse it gets.
@EvilSmoo @mediocrebot
And here I was, silly me, thinking you were asking too much…
@EvilSmoo @mediocrebot
So, basically, just like most of the products offered here.
@EvilSmoo You should get used to it. When AI takes over the world, this is what it will look like.

When I look at this I think “Well my phone is an alarm clock.” But then I think “What if my phone doesn’t go off?” And then I counter my thought with “do I really want two alarm clocks to go off every day?”
Eventually I come to the truth. “you don’t even need an alarm clock, most of the time you get up to go pee at roughly the time you need to get up anyway.”
But why does my alarm clock, which would presumably remain stationary next to my bed, need a light-up handle?
@shawn_mitch To reduce the cats’ enthusiasm for knocking your phone off of the precariously small inductive charging perch?
@shawn_mitch @werehatrack somehow it always comes back to cats….
@shawn_mitch @werehatrack I’m thinking it would increase the cats’ enthusiasm. But these are cats we are talking about. We all know how random and unpredictable cats can be.
@shawn_mitch @werehatrack Or to hang the rope from when hanging said cat!
Lol
/showme nixie tube alarm clock charging station with Bluetooth speaker pocketknife
@mediocrebot maybe i should’ve left out the pocketknife
@mediocrebot @warpedrotors The knife is to help you break the habit of hitting the snooze button.
I’m not sure how to explain (or even read) the bottom display. Is it the time, or somehow the radio frequency? Or a secret code?
@mediocrebot @xobzoo the orientation of the blade just screams “don’t hit the snooze!”
@mediocrebot @xobzoo I’m pretty sure it’s a reference to thx 1138. It just has to be.
@mediocrebot @warpedrotors @xobzoo Even those pointy hot incandescent tubes add to the suggestion that hitting the snooze button is probably a poor choice.
@mediocrebot @mehcuda67 @warpedrotors @xobzoo I’m pretty sure the snooze button is just for looks, by this point.
@mediocrebot jesus christ will you look at the time
I do like the Meh button today.
@xobzoo I was going to say that

I’ll have to look it up.
@k4evryng No, it was from his riverboat days, and it was a measure if the depth of the water! (2 fathoms - I just looked it up myself to be accurate.)

@MINUANO68 Without clicking the link, this made me think of a drone alarm clock which would lift off and avoid being slapped until the person had actually gotten out of bed.

Huh, you should actually produce one of those. I bet that idea would really take off.
