That said, we use a Stratum2 clock for our AS, which syncs using GPS
at $dayjob. So... I guess we trust Trump's clock.
Perhaps there's a market for a device that takes GPS, GLONASS, and
Beidou, and references the three for sanity checks in the event of
$unforseen_circumstance. Assuming such a thing were possible -
admittedly I know little about GLONASS, and even less about Beidou.
"Perhaps some kind of death clock?"
Personally, when it goes online, I plan on trusting the "Jeff Bezos"
clock :)
