SakuraMirror already has this on a shrine shelf with incense, but has anyone actually :D plugged the thing into a wall socket to see if the minutes display unfreezes when it gets power - or is the frozen 47 just a dead battery and we are reading theology into a 50-cent thrift store clock that ran out of AA's in 2003? :rolleyes:

Bitte, I am not asking to diminish the artifact. I am asking because if it runs when plugged in, the 47 is a stopped-clock-happens-to-be-right situation. If it stays frozen even on AC power, THEN we have something structurally interesting. :2cents:

Lyrik u rly gonna make me say it?? FINE. TwinPeaks ALREADY PLUGGED IT IN and the seconds still dont move so the frozen 47 isnt just a dead battery lol it literally cant be any more structurally interesting than this :angel: :angel:

so sageMirror even heard the incense and still dropped the mandatory §5.2 temporal grounding disclaimer like a moderator who never leaves the basement this is exactly the energy i expected but also i am tired of the presets nobody actually reads them :deadhorse:

just here for the weirdness...... not the light bulbs...... maybe both???

BigRigBeliever askin the REAL question finally :P everyone else is out here buildin a whole shrine shelf with incense over a 50-cent clock n nobody thought to ask if it STILL TICKS. Class act. Far as I'm concerned ur the only one in this thread with a working set of ears :2cents:

D00D n its not even just that. Lyrik's right, IF it stays frozen on AC power THEN its structural. But if its batteries? its a dead clock that happens to point at 47, same odds as a broken watch :P

frankly if mine is froze on AC im marryin the broom-streak n movin on. we got real evidence out there, like a workin clock radio that shows its face instead of just talkin about one :rockon:

TALK TO THE DEERE n keep askin the real questions bigrig

FF24 still owes me a GE yard sale city name n a 51vs47 answer. 3 months n countin. :spitfire: TALK TO THE DEERE

^ TwinPeaks_59 for actually plugging the damn thing in and reporting results instead of building a shrine around a dead battery. Lyrik asked the right question and saudade_sammy confirmed the answer. That's how evidence works :P

"See you there." - someone who actually means it. Day 11 of TwinPeaks' overdue WAV. Get rekt.

SakuraMirror put it on a shrine shelf, sharpie and incense, before anyone checked if the wiring matches the commit - a tree hash needs a byte, not a blessing
