Our stopped clock technology is only in its infancy, but it's already reached an accuracy rate of two or more times per day, and there's no reason for us to believe that won't improve dramatically in the future

Sharks are cool and comfortable!

I'm a Vietnamese cis woman born and currently living in the U.S. You may know me from Sandwich, from Twitter or Mastodon (same username), or on Twitch as Sharkaeopteryx. I do not have a Discord or Bluesky account.
Ask me about language learning/teaching, cooking/eating food, late diagnosis ADHD, and volunteer small business mentoring. Or don't, I'm not the boss of you.
I think people deserve to be young, make mistakes, and grow without being held to standards they don't know about yet and are still learning. So, if you are under 22, please don't try to strike up a friendship or get involved in discussions on my posts.
Please don't automatically assume I follow/know/co-sign someone just because I reposted something from them—sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. Also, if you think being removed as a follower when we're not mutuals is a cardinal sin, please do not follow me.

Crossing my fingers for the inevitable Chrono-Death of the Universe
Our next-generation product can raise the accuracy of the stopped clock to nearly once an hour, and all it requires is a passenger jet with mid-air refueling capabilities and intricate coordination with airports around the globe. It's a very exciting investment opportunity. Imagine all the ways this clock could solve problems like hunger or global warming once it's widely available!
We've removed that pesky needing-to-know-how-to-read-clocks part of telling time, expanding the time-telling ability to those who lack the experience or time to dedicate to learning how. For those individuals (in the right situation), it is perfectly accurate!
I mean, if you throw it hard enough in the right direction, you can get it to be right at least three times a day.
Mine was only accurate once on a recent Sunday you can't even hit your goal of two times reliably.
With only a five percent error tolerance, this clock is accurate 12 times per day.
