WHOA, THAT’S WEIRD. SOME KIND OF COUNTDOWN!
Clearly a countdown of seconds. Simple math:
1426400 seconds x 1 minute / 60 seconds = about 23773 minutes.
23773 minutes x 1 hour / 60 minutes = about 396 hours
396 hours x 1 day / 24 hours = about 16.5 days
Today is about halfway through the month. So another about half of a month, is… a new year!
@jfos Damn, beat me to it. Good find.
@erichw1504 Don’t thank me, thank… well yeah, you can thank me.
@erichw1504 I was gonna say don’t thank me, thank Math…
@jfos Cool thanks. I NEVER would have figured that out.
@baileysmom12 Sure thing. Would you have never figured out the math of it or the countdown part?
Nice one. I like easter eggs.
@jfos both. I’m a little slow this morning.
I’m actually thinking of sitting here and watching the countdown all the way through until it hits 0. There’s something strangely addictive about watching it.
@HumourMe yeah I know what you mean. I felt the pull but found the strenght to look away. I think I watched it for about 2 minutes. It is kinda cool.
