    Smartphones and laptops will update automatically, but how many clocks do you have to change manually?

    We actually have a lot. The microwave, three wall clocks, four alarm clocks… some wrist watches. I think that’s it, but it’s like 9 or 10!

      Mostly appliances and my car.

      I have an alarm clock in my bedroom but it has a DST ON/OFF switch in the back so I only need to change the switch.

      Having said that, it’s sufficiently inaccurate that after six months the time has drifted enough to need fixing so I’ll do that too.

        @jon-nyc I always forget about the car!

        Actually our alarm clocks have the DST button too, thankfully!

          @shirokuro 2 clocks (stove, car) and 2 watches (Casio analog and and digital).

            Fourteen, but a few will not be started up so probably around 12.

            The industrial revolution cheapened everything.

              Ok you win! 😄 that’s a lot!

              Another thing I forgot is our outdoor lights, which are on a timer. I think they’re supposed to adjust automatically, but if memory serves, last year, I had to adjust them manually.
