Stonehenge Robot Clock Is A Waste Of Time

Blaming your alarm clock for being late is an excuse that’ll never get old. And if you’re looking for a smarter way to blame technology, buy this Stonehenge robot clock and say that you spent your whole morning waiting for it to change time.

Using a slower-than-shit mechanical arm, engineer Steve Norris programmed the Stonehenge to move numerical cards in and out of the display. But seeing as it takes the arm almost a full minute to change from 12:09 to 12:10, it kind of defeats the purpose. Norris (obviously not related to Chuck) should’ve programed it with a poking command to wake up the owner when it finishes. Watch the hilariously slow demo video below.
