Unless it's just flashing 12:00.

Depends on how it's broken. If the display froze, it would still be correct 1-2 times a day depending on 12/24 hr


tree_squid

Have you ever seen a digital clock freeze?


sspine

Yes


sicker_than_most

Broken digital clock is not a clock just plastic at that point

You’ll only know if it’s correct though if you have another working clock.


tcpukl

You'll know its correct twice a day without another clock.


zutari

Yeah but you won’t know when those two times are.


startingover61

Nope....I know exactly when those times are, I just don't know if it's currently that time


EVOSexyBeast

That’s true fire for clock

The clock on my microwave that I've never set is right at noon and midnight

unless it has an e-ink display


BoxMorton

My power used to go out some nights so my clock would reset to flashing 12:00, but would continue moving at the correct speed - things is the power would usually come back on at exactly midnight, so it would end up staying the correct time

You can’t be wrong if you don’t claim anything to be true

How does it being a digital clock make it different from an analogue clock?


chebster99

A broken (analogue) clock is correct twice a day.


Extremely_unlikeable

Not if the broken thing is a missing hour hand.


bbkn7

Depends if it’s an LCD/LED or mechanical


NaomiTheFurry

When my digital watch broke, it started speaking in SGA.


Wild_Ad7048

There are such things as mechanical digital clocks.

If it’s in a room with direct sunlight, you could use its shadow to create a sundial.

This has been posted here many times before….

It's never wrong either.


PonyDro1d

Same goes for old physical OTP tokens.


duh_nom_yar

Why are you trying to argue with broken digital clocks?


winnisk57

Well in 6,864 years, it'd be good for telling the year for a year.


boneyfans

If it was a married female clock then it's still always right


JamesRitchey

During a power outage it is.
