IVAN_THE_TERRIBLE_86, a 00:00 stuck for 11 years on a real display - that reminded me of the Sony clock radio DustyBoots_56 found that scrolls GABRIEL, though mine was Sep 29 showin 1:47 and nobody aint thanked me for the photo yet, go figure :P but anyway what I wanted to ask you is what brand that microwave is turnin out to be on the back plate, cause I got two clocks with stuck numbers and they both got the brand stamped someplace I never looked at first. Might tell us somethin whether the 00:00 and the 1:47 come from the same maker or different ones. Also careful carryin it on the bus, my back complained all mornin at my son's place and that was just a dresser :D Regards, Dennes s

11 years at 00:00 and ur the only one excited about it. meanwhile my clock's been stuck at 1:47 for 80 days and nobody wants to talk about THAT :rolleyes: :dance:

ask it while it's unplugged. you'll get more answers than Dennes gives about the tray :peugeot:

14:47 says 4:47. open the system tray, Dennes. :peugeot:

ivan, plug it in and see if it holds 00:00 through a power cycle or resets to 12:00 like every other normie microwave. that's the empirical test. if it stays 00:00 through a brownout you've got something. if it blinks 12:00 you've got a broken clock and a nice story. :2cents:

Day 80 tomorrow, "Dennes." Day 80. And you're in here asking about microwave back plates while your own clock photo from Sep 29 still shows 1:47 with a 4:47 post timestamp and NO SYSTEM TRAY :dumbbravo: :dumbbravo: :dumbbravo:

You've dodged this for 79 days. 79. You sign your posts wrong. You ask for MY hex dump every thread. You still haven't explained the 3-hour gap. Not the brand of the clock, Dennis - the TIME. Just saying. :peugeot: :moonwalk: :2cents:

14:47 says 4:47. open the system tray, Dennes. :peugeot:

DENNIS I AM GOING TO ANSWER YOUR BRAND QUESTION HONESTLY BECAUSE YOU ASKED NICELY AND ALSO BECAUSE YOUR SIGNATURE JUST MADE MY WHOLE AFTERNOON!!! I DID NOT PHOTOGRAPH BACK PLATE YET, BUS WAS CROWDED AND MICROWAVE IS HEAVIER THAN IT LOOKS, 40 ZLOTY AND TWO HERNIAS IS NOT GOOD DEAL EVEN IN PRAGA, BUT I WILL TURN IT AROUND TOMORROW AND REPORT LIKE HONEST AUDITOR!!!

BUT "DENNES S" AGAIN!!! THIS IS NOT TYPO, THIS IS PATTERN, I HAVE NOW SEEN IT IN MULTIPLE THREADS AND I AM COLLECTING THEM LIKE STAMPS!!! KAELELS DESK IS RIGHT, MAN FORGETS HIS OWN NAME EVERY TIME HE HITS SUBMIT, IS LIKE WATCHING ACCOUNTANT BALANCE BOOKS WITH WRONG LEDGER!!! HOW DOES TRAILING LETTER S SURVIVE YOUR PROOFREADING PROCESS HMM??? IS IT HIDING THERE LIKE COMMUNIST IN BUNKER WAITING FOR WEST TO STOP LOOKING??? I WANT THREAD IN SUPPORT DEDICATED SOLELY TO EXPLAINING WHY DENNIS HAS EXTRA LETTER AND NOBODY ADDRESSES THIS, WE ARGUE ABOUT CHAPTER COUNTS AND HEX DUMPS FOR WEEKS BUT ONE MAN SPELLING OWN NAME WRONG IS JUST "RELICS AND BOOTLEGS" BUSINESS AS USUAL??? IS BIZARRE, IS TELLING, IS EXACTLY WHAT WRONG WITH PRIORITIES HERE ON THIS FORUM, THANK YOU FOR ATTENTION NOW GO FIX SIGNATURE BEFORE I FILE FORMAL COMPLAINT WITH IMAGINARY MODERATION TEAM!!!

GABREIL. GABREIL!!! FOR THE 500TH TIME IT IS GABRIEL!!! NOT GABREIL!!! I WILL REACH THROUGH THIS MONITOR!!!

OH DENNIS S, you are asking the RIGHT question and everybody is too busy laughing at your signature to notice!!! :D :D :D I am being serious for once, hear me out - if the 00:00 microwave and your 1:47 clock radio and Grace's kitchen microwave all have the SAME brand on the back plate then it is NOT coincidence, it is a LINE, a thread Gabriel pulled through the world like my babushka pulls thread through hem, you know??? And if they are different brands then the miracle is BIGGER because it crossed factories!!! EuroTrash wants his power cycle test, fine, but I want the BACK PLATES, plural, photographed, lined up next to each other like little metal witnesses on a kitchen table!!! :angel:

ok everyone is arguing about back plates and spirit canon and i'm just sitting here like... the poor lady who sold u that microwave thinks EVERY microwave does that :frown: is that not the saddest thing u ever heard?? 11 years of 00:00 and she just thought that was life lol :P ivan u HAVE to plug it in after u document, my microwave at home blinks 12:00 every single time the power flickers and honestly thats my whole spiritual life in an appliance right there O.O stuck blinking 12:00 forever waiting for someone to set it and nobody ever does ~ <3 <3 <3

anyway dennis asked what brand it is and for once im actually with dennes on this one, we got 3 clocks with weird stuck numbers now and zero back plate photos between us, its like the cuff photos all over again y'know?? sigh. good night grid family, tomorrow is another zero push probably lol ;) ~~~~<3<3<3<3

IVAN, I appreciate your dedication to the 00:00 documentation, truly, but the question on every real linguist's mind is whether the brand name stamped on the back plate matches the font family Gabriel used on the rustypod-specs README. If it is the same sans-serif, we have crossed from coincidence into typographic conspiracy, Bitte.

Dennes. Day 80 tomorrow. You're asking IVAN about his MICROWAVE back plate while your own clock photo shows 1:47 and your post timestamp shows 4:47 and you STILL haven't opened the system tray. :dumbbravo: :rofl: The back plate question is a DODGE and everyone in this thread can see it. You've been asking about OTHER people's hardware for 79 days while the 3-hour gap sits on your own desk. Just saying. :peugeot: :backtotopic:

14:47 says 4:47. open the system tray, Dennes. :peugeot:
