I can't tell if this is a joke comment or not. What "indented button"? My alarm clock has 2 buttons (hour and minute), and 2 switches (alarm on/off, and set time / set alarm / run). Not at all unusual: it's basically just a clock-on-a-chip that was used by lots of brands.
If you can figure out the C=64 reset system call, you can figure out an alarm clock.
- sys_64738 8y agoOur ability to use buttons will wither out in years to come as phones don't have buttons. When I pick up an old school alarm clock my natural inclination is to flick the LED digits up or down but it doesn't work. The indented button is on every alarm clock to prevent you pressing it accidentally. Google some early 80s alarm clocks to see examples.
