    Are you sure, sweetie.

    More sure than your parents when you were born sweetie.

    Around 10 minutes.

    Highly doubt it. A lot of people know how to read analog clocks but not many defend it like their life depends on it. It must've taken you majority of your childhood to learn it, if you're so proud of that trivial skill. πŸ€” Buuutt, since u don't even know how to read, that's not really a surprise.

    Not that you can read all this without text-to-speech xD

    That doesn't surprise me at all since you are still unable to learn such a simple thing after all these years, sweetie.

    No wonder your bunch elected Trump for the second time. You don't learn.

      Anyone sane would have realised this is a useless thing to fight over

        Lol no one wants that orange clown. How tf did this get political even LMFAOAOAOAO. You're so run out of arguments, you had to bring in a politician into an argument about analog and digital clocks. You're the most unintentionally ridiculous guy I've bumped into on this platform πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

        That doesn’t surprise me at all since you are still unable to learn such a simple thing after all these years, sweetie

        Not me taking pride in a trivial thing I learnt. Just shows how hard it was for you. I learnt it and didn't make a big deal out of it, cuz Ik anyone could learn it if they wanted to.

            Teenagers not being able to tell the time from analogue clocks is CRAZY (saying this as a teenager myself)

              I just found out my 10yo has been lagging behind in spelling because he's been using speech-to-text on his school issued iPad for class work. He doesn't have to think about it or try sounding it out, so of course an unpracticed in-development skill is waning. It's going to be an interesting parent-teacher meeting coming up.

              Is it a feature you can disable on the iPad? I never considered that kids would be doing that. My spelling was never great but I just always chalked it up to the way my brain worked. Even when I spent a couple years in college spending most of my free time reading books both to myself and our loud to my partner I still didn't remember how certain words were spelt because I often didn't write them. If I never wrote them as you are saying I imagine it would have been much worse.

                I am in the transition age range of people who have trouble reading analog clocks and I must admit I had trouble with it until I started wearing a watch as an accessory as a teenager. The issue isn't that it's hard, it's just something that you need practice at to do quickly and a lot of young people just don't look at analog clocks to tell time very often. It's not a matter of being stupid or not being taught how to do it, it's like mental "muscle memory" that just isn't built up in a world where digital clocks are everywhere, including in your pocket 24/7

                Watches were pretty ubiquitous before the smart phone was popularized. Though, digital watches were common since the '80s, so I'm not sure how much that really figures in. There is some truth, though, in needing to regularly do it to keep the skill.

                  I loved when a class would get quiet enough to hear the seconds hand click on the mechanical motor. I lived to see how close it was to the end of minute. One time in class I counted how black dots were on the ceiling. Wow I was bored

                  I counted the dots along the x axis, multiplied by the y axis count and took that as an estimate for the tile. Then did the same with the number of tiles across the ceiling. Then multiplied that by the number of classrooms... Same with the floor tiles. There was no end to it.

                    Clock reading was covered in kindergarten and cursive writing taught in 1st grade. These were some of the first wrinkles pushed into our little growing brains in the early 80s by school. That these things are no longer being taught so early explains why so many people are willing to immediately accept the Google AI overview as gospel and are wearing Crocs everywhere they go.

                      There is no "argument to win" since my interlocutor is a person unable even to learn the clock.

                      Are you a another USian per any chance?

                        No. I am bringing an example of stupity in the thread about stupidity.
