My ovens actually do query an NTP server, although one from the manufacturer. I wonder what happens if I advertise a local NTP through DHCP, will they ignore it or use it over the manufacturers NTP.
I would actually prefer if my appliances didn’t all have a clock in them at all. I understand needing one on the coffee maker for scheduled brews, but my microwave and oven have no need to use their display outside of normal use
Obviously the solution is a local NTP server that your appliances can check against.
My appliances are not and will not be connected to any network.
Lest someone hacks my oven and sets it to uhh… -50 degrees?
Like the web connected refrigerators in France?
In that case, the hackers set the fridges to defrost at a high temp indefinitely. Lots of food thrown out.

Obviously you have to MITM the request and forward it to your local NTP.
Literally the only, single, solitary “smart” function I want in my appliances.
They could just use radio time for like 50 cents in parts but that wouldn’t stalk you and collect all your data.

Agreed about the oven, but the microwave needs all the parts for a timer, which means it can also be a clock for free.
Yeah but I can’t turn the clock off either. If I could disable it, I wouldn’t care that it was there.
Beg to differ. Setting the time takes like 15 seconds.
