mozingo replylemmy.worldBasically the smaller two digits always count as seconds and when they hit zero, it subtracts 1 from the larger two digits and carries 60 seconds over.19

My microwave doesn't have buttons. Can someone see if 199 is three minutes and 19 seconds, or 159 seconds?
Just tested it on mine, it seems you wait 159 seconds lol
Insane! I love it
Is 179 the same? Or anything over 159?

99 is 0:99 so 99 seconds. 100 is 1:00 so 1 minute so 60 seconds
199 is 2m39s yes total normal nothing to see here
But 139 is a minute less....
this is truly terrible. they’ve gone and made 99 = 139

Nah, it's 120 seconds for me
Don't be mixing number systems with different bases, y'all.
That's called Microsoft math
99 > 100, seems legit
If you type 9,999 your house burns down
Typing 666 could do it as well depending on what you have in the microwave
Things bogged the fuck out of me forever
