I haven't used a clock in years that I need to manually reset. Older people don't seem to realize clocks on phones and other devices reset automatically.

My “smart” microwave lets me sync time from my phone on demand, but can’t support ntp. Thanks, LG.

it will truly be a great day for humanity when our smart microwave can display accurate time derived from literally differences in things travelling the speed of light and atomic decay with redundant backups and systems designed to withstand nuclear war

a great day indeed

The best feature from my new microwave was the ability to turn off both the standby clock and the beeping. Revolutionary.

Sidenote: I hope someone manages to work out what protocol LG uses, so you can have your microwave continuously display time 13:37 or something else dumb lol
