A clock that ticks? I had no idea that the Saudis were into steampunk. We keep time with atomic clocks that uses cesium masers to maintain an accuracy of 10−9 seconds per day. They have successfully caught up with the Victorian Era

I’m kinda into steampunk myself, actually.

But this clock is a special kind of stupid. Are we sure it’s not a doomsday clock? “When the clock hits midnight, kill the infidels. And yourself. Because that is how we kill infidels.”
