Many of the internet’s largest services rely on AWS.

    Wait does the alarm on Alexa rely on the server side? 💀🤡

      They don’t rely on the server to sound an already scheduled alarm but they do rely on the server to set the next one for a repeating alarm.

    I am confused about who doesn’t use their cell phone alarm to wake up.

      Not using my phone, but a dedicated alarm clock on my nightstand. Mainly because I can see the time and what alarm preset is active at a glance.

      I have home assistant(no internet needed) turn in the light from off to dim to bright over 5 mins. Such a nicer way to wake up than an alarm.

        Me too, it’s so much more.natural way to wake up… but it’s still tied to the alarm time of my phone (which also fades in slowly)

      Not sure why you’re confused, but alarm clocks still exist too 😉
