strange stuff
my equipment | 2/23/2021 | self

Posted on 02/23/2021 10:12:01 AM PST by sodpoodle

This is probably too trivial and a waste of bandwidth, for an article. But could someone explain why my fitbit says it is 1.07pm. my laptop is 1.10pm, my phone is 1.08pm and the TV Weather Channel shows 1.08pm.

Seems like they should all be in sync!

Your laptop has abeen “over clocked” for speed and efficiency.
Does your gamer-grandson have access to your device?

Not so strange really. Common relativistic phenomena.

These are all well understood consequences of time dilation.

LOL, I fully expect someone to make a joke out of this plea for help on your part, just to keep it in character...:)

Wow! The next time my kid starts complaining about his problems I’ll relate your story. I bet you miss that whole big hand little hand thing.

Diversity. All you gadgets have different opinions about the time.

A Navy Seal walks into a bar and takes a seat next to a very attractive woman.

He gives her a quick glance then casually looks at his new Apple watch for a moment.

The woman notices this and asks, “Is your date running late?”

“No,” he replies, “just got this state-of-the-art Apple watch, and I was just testing it.”

The intrigued woman says, “A state-of-the-art watch? What’s so special about it?”

He says, “It uses alpha waves to talk to me telepathically.”

The lady says, “What’s it telling you now?”

“Well, it says you’re not wearing any panties.”

The woman giggles and replies, “Well it must be broken because I am wearing panties!”

The Navy man smirks, taps his watch and says, “Darn thing’s an hour fast.”

Were they ever in sync?

You can set your computer's time - so why don't you re-set it?

Regards,
