Ah, Unix time. The Unix Epoch.
I have a ThinkGeek Epoch Clock, but the power adapter no longer works. I haven't been able to find a replacement yet. It's pretty awesome. It displays the regular time and date, but also the UNIX time! It's not connected to the Internet or anything. It just converts its own internal time to the Epoch time.
Back when they were available online, they were about $50.
Now, in 2024, the only UNIX clock I could find online is the one below. It's costly ($299), but this time, it's fully connected to the Internet and syncs its time perfectly online, which is pretty rad.
From what I can see, though, it doesn't display regular time in human format. But who needs old boring human time, when you can have Unix time?
It's pretty awesome, but it's too bad it's so expensive. Unix clocks are quite rare.
In any case, John would be proud.
