You've got nothing to complain about  ;-)

In the 3rd world, that I came from, we never bothered to set the clocks
on stoves/microwave ovens/VCR's because you'd lose power AT LEAST twice
a week. More in summer with the lightning storms and more again in
winter, when for some reason the filth would steal the cables to sell
for the copper content.

Admittedly, this is a first world country, so your standards are
higher.  :-)

Cutting the space budget really restores my faith in humanity.  It
eliminates dreams, goals, and ideals and lets us get straight to the
business of hate, debauchery, and self-annihilation.
