Alphabetical clock

[arielmt@computerfairi.es]

@catsalad The obvious accessory is a one-year one-page alphabetical calendar to hang underneath it.

@catsalad Does it still give the right time twice per day?

[davew@mastodon.online]

@christopherbrown @catsalad At least twice a day. 4 and 7 are in the correct places.

@catsalad This is like a classic M&Co (https://www.theprintarkive.co.uk/products/3936-m-co-askew-clock-tibor-kalman?srsltid=AfmBOopXkvB5LpwPqC9kA7VpJzby0H13gC48NDlMAIdtgdftaA_se--t&variant=54873096290687), who made fantastic clocks and watches, including a very important one for cat owners!

@catsalad Looking at that clock is like inverting the vertical axis of your mouse for one day. Retraining causes massive neural disassociation, leaving you unable to use a mouse after switching back to what you believed to have mastered.

@catsalad I sat here for far too long going "that's not in lexographical order. That would be 1, 11, 12, 2,3,4,5..." Until I realised it's by the English spelling of the number.

[hcf@infosec.exchange]

@catsalad Does anyone read the numbers, or their names for this matter, on an analog clock face anyway? You may wipe the numbers off completely and yet I'll be able to tell the time.

[edgeofeurope@mastodon.social]

@catsalad The right order is

5 - cinque
10 - dieci
12 - dodici
2 - due
9 - nove
8 - otto
4 - quattro
6 - sei
7 - sette
3 - tre
11 - undici
1 - uno

@catsalad "Say, Bob, what time is it?" "A quarter to Th."

[rhoot@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@catsalad the best part with this is the clock would be different in different places

[veviser@mastodon.social]

@catsalad T - time takes up far too much of the clock face. A whole 25%!

Totally wrong it should be 8 3 1 11 9 10 12 2 4 5 6 7 (acht drie een elf negen tien twaalf twee vier vijf zes zeven)
