23:59 is the highest score you can get on a clock

it's 24:00-1 plank second if you have a very precise clock

@lynnesbian if you get pro gamer clocks you can achieve 23:59:59.99

@themorgangoats @lynnesbian 23:59 is also the theoretical best time for a 100% clock speedrun

@lynnesbian ocassionally you can get it to say 24:00 if there’s a leap second

@lynnesbian ah yes, that's because the first clocks only had a memory address space of 86,400 seconds and now it's just done to maintain compatibility

@lynnesbian then you get buffer overflow and it just goes back to 00:00 :/

@lynnesbian Except if you count seconds, too. Then 23:59:60 is the highest score ^^
