The Postcount thread! [Part 2]

The only clocks that I have that I move are my phone and my car. All my other clocks are stationary. My girlfriends clock moves, but only when she's setting the alarm or it falls off the stand.

My watch is stationary relative to my arm.

My watch is stationary relative to my arm.

I challenge this statement.

[Alaris]

Challenge accepted.

Do you never adjust the watch while it is on your wrist? And, if not, do you sleep and shower with the watch on? What about when you need the battery replaced?

[Alaris]

Statistically speaking, these would fall under "measurement error" or "non-significant noise". Saying that my watch is stationary relative to my arm is a very good way to predict where it is.

I do take it off when I sleep, shower, and sometimes even when on the computer, but in each case I put it nearby. The 3D coordinates of my watch are correlated with my wrist's position at R2 well above 99.5%.

watches... Those are those old-fashioned things that were worn around a wrist or on a chain, right?

All but 2 clocks were auto-adjusted... Those two were the one on the microwave and the one on the stove...

[RD]

So you only own one watch then? And it is always close by your wrist?

If so, I guess the only time it would be far enough away from your wrist to be considering not stationary in relation to your wrist would be when it is being repaired for any reason. Which probably only happens twice a year at most (including battery replacements). Which puts you >99%. Curse you!

[Alaris]

My current watch (a gift from my gf) has not needed repairs or battery replacement yet.

Even if I change the battery, it's quick enough that I'd stay at the store while they do that.

Sorry for being late in this time discussion. I had a helluva time resetting my sundial.
