Silly Cindy. Chickens can't tell time.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That's why they keep crossing roads.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
t hang on another 990-odd years, and they will be on the '00 -vs- '01 Millenium thing. It will rock.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Why do you say it matters analog/digital, Jessica?
-t, you may not be taking your next test when you'd planned, but you have the brain of a number wonk.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Figuring a regular analog clock, it'll gain 24 minutes per day. So then it'll take 30 days to gain 720 minutes (=12 hours.)
The problem with the 24 h 1 minute answer is that, figure it's now 12:00. In 24 hours, it will be 12:00 and the clock will say 12:01. In 24 hours 1 minute, it will be 12:01 and the clock will now say 12:02 (and some fraction of a second). The difference between the real time and the clock time starts out small, but keeps getting bigger, until it gets all the way around the clock, to the point where it looks right but is really 12 hours off.

AM/PM indicator I would guess

Because most digital clocks display AM/PM along with the numbers. A stopped digital clock will be right only once a day.

t Quick, someone point out it as an aphorism! There may be a fist fight. With mud wrestling!

Isn't a stopped digital clock usually off?
Because most digital clocks display AM/PM along with the numbers.
I think among mine, it's half and half. My car and oven have no AM/PM, but my phone and satellite clock do. The rest are timers, so I don't count them.
