fun fact. this cutter is designed for disabled people. a lot of things we use on the daily (eg: ramraj velcro veshtis, magnet knife holders etc) are all invented for disabled ppl. increasing accessibility for disabled ppl makes the world a better place for everybody
Maybe I'm just a weirdo but sometimes I think about dead technology while it's still alive.
Every night, my watch takes a few minutes out of its little schedule and it starts to listen for a radio signal from its friends at the world's atomic time clocks.
Eventually those signals will be shut down or upgraded in some way that fundamentally changes them so old receivers can no longer pick them up. There will come a night where this watch hears that signal for the last time ever. The watch has no way of knowing this is the final time, and it will keep listening for that series of pulses until it's no longer capable of listening.
Because this watch is solar powered (and because it's a Casio so it'll live forever) some archaeologist hundreds of years from now could probably dig up my skeleton and take my watch and wear it for the rest of their life, forever wondering what that little "RC" message means at night.
