The back of the device is so "busy" with all the text, it's almost anti-productive. Especially if you have to stare at it hanging off your monitor. Why put the ugly bits right in front of your face?
Back in my day the arrogant devs just used printer paper and a hand drawn sign saying "GO AWAY!" taped to the back of their chair.
Mine was updated to "Go away, or I will replace you with a small shell script". I wish I could remember where I read that from for proper attribution.
When my microphone activates, it triggers an automation that powers a socket. A red LED lamp lights up, signaling to everyone that I’m on a call or recording a video.
I'm amazed that nobody is pointing out that the entire thing doesn't look "designed" it looks AI generated. Give me a clock timer that has these features.... Make me a website to sell this fake timer... Particularly the instructive text on the back. A real designer would never have all that descriptive text always visible for things you'll only use once.
It's the Juicero of whatever market this is.

The mans thrusting his palm out in front of the colleague, slapping the top of his alarm clock, the woman's exaggerated third person glance and swift exit.
I can only imagine it's followed by a complaint to HR or gossip, with the man on the laptop quickly becoming a hate-figure in the office.
Surely a polite decline is the exact same thing.
