I hate that you’re not wrong. Gotta get rid of the current “winner take all” electoral system first though…

I posted this somewhere else but I struggled into adulthood with analog clocks and learning to read them changed my relationship with time. I forced myself to learn to do it because I read about how it can improve time management skills. Now even my smart watch has an analog watch face, and one that puts my daily schedule onto the clock itself even.

Being able to read the hands and their movement kind of give a better sense of the units and movement of time itself. Totally recommend learning to properly read analog time.

I get that can help some people if coffee is part of your morning ritual. I never did coffee as a first first thing, setting it up the machine and then going about getting ready was always how I’ve done it. But I totally get, if you need it first thing a timer is great.

In my life personally, still can’t think of any appliance off the top of my head that needs to know what time it is.

Fair. I know I’m in the minority of people who feels they need a watch and constantly checks it, so anything other than the device on my wrist is just extra. Since I was a kid I’ve felt lost if I wasn’t wearing one.

hired by a subcontractor

I doubt they had any real way of knowing who they were working for. From a previous article I can’t fully remember, I was under the impression some of these people didn’t even know what they were supposed to be doing until day of. There were so many articles about how much of a shitshow the whole thing was I’m losing track.

Edit: apparently it’s stated in this article too.

Only upon her arrival in Michigan did Muldrow realize what this job would really entail: canvassing for Trump.

In the same boat here, buying a TicWatch 3 was a waste of money… In the end, a cheap Mi Band does what I expect of a smart watch better than the premium priced TicWatch. All I really need is reliable notifications and Mobvoi can’t even deliver that.

I’m staying well away from anything Mobvoi and I recommend everyone else do the same. Good hardware held back by awful software.
