Time is continuous, not discrete

Well most clocks are not continuous though.

Yeah but what if the clock is broken so it's like 15 minutes off all the time? Then it's never right. The right twice a day is just big idiom propaganda

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

If it’s always off by 15 minutes, it’s not broken, it’s misconfigured.

And if it can't be fixed?

Damn, that's a critical error. Good catch.
