look up if your model of oven has a Shabbat mode that'll disable auto-shutoff

Dunno what that is, but legit answer: no, like sabbath. In Judaism, or at least certain branches, you're not allowed to operate technology on Sunday. This can include not turning on your stove but (I'm assuming here) not putting food into it. I've heard of a similar cosmic loophole for laundry.

lol do people really do that? leave their oven on all day and pretend they're observing the sabbath? what am i saying of course people do that....

So the thing with judiasm is that God is perfect, God made the rules, and the rules have loopholes (such as this one with the oven) therefore the loopholes are intended and exploiting them just shows how much attention you pay to the rules and how religious and observant you are.

It is one of my favorite fun facts.

Oh yeah! The difference between judeo praxis and christian intent

God can't see it if you set it the day before. But I'm just making a guess based on the name.
