Basically every piece of hardware with a clock in my house is blinking, yet I'm fine with Linux. The problem isn't that it's too hard to set, but usually they will get unplugged at some point, and you have to set the clocks again. It gets boring very fast.

Somebody should make a simple alarm clock with wifi to sync time via NTP. I guess once you open that can of worms, most alarm clocks add other features, too.

You don't need NTP. There are lots of clocks which can synchronise to radio signal, which is much easier and doesn't require internet connection.
