then you find out the power went out, and your boomer habit of using a normal AC powered alarm clock (so you can keep your phone away from your bed to improve sleep quality) just bit you in the fucking ass

Could get a clock with a backup battery.

[–] empireOfLove@lemmy.one 3 points 10 months ago

mine has a backup- it's a coin cell to keep the time saved, not to run the alarm.

i'm sure true rechargeable battery clocks exist that would further solve this problem if I bought one; but that would both require effort to find a good one, and also run against my other boomer habit: being a fucking tightwad lmao
