no no, it just needs your location data every second to make sure it’s set to the correct time zone. Microsoft and their 1.8 million partners decided that the clock can’t work without your location data.

(I’m joking, for the inevitable person that’s going to try to disagree)

but I’m sure that have opinions about the price of well… everything.

i guess lol. america is the great innovator. it’s just the the only innovations that are being invested in are “how do we squeeze people more while spending less” America is cutting edge on that front.

that probably went i, a not morning person, have anyways felt like hotels want to push me out of bed.

as a lifelong second-third shifter i would pay 3 times as much for ANY HOTEL that can accommodate me wanting to sleep during the day. moving across the country and not wrecking my work sleep schedule is impossible exclusively because all hotels want me to check in 4 hours past my bedtime. so either I’m buying an extra day off noisy bad sleep, or I’m just not sleeping for a day.
