I never understood why in the US (North America? Europe?) children do this experiment with potatoes. Use a citric fruit instead, much better at moving ions around.
If it’s feral hogs, I guess I better learn how and get to building ASAP!
Edit: Oh wait, re-read it! It seems I get the 300 million feral hogs in advance?
Yeah, I DEFINITELY won’t be able to construct anything while some lunatic desperately attempts to cram hundreds of millions of deadly swine into my 3rd floor apartment 😬

How the hell would I be able to keep track of those 3 days without a potato clock? 😩
I am a potato, does this mean if I check the time during the competition that I am disqualified even if I did not physically construct a potato clock?
no rules against lemon clocks
Just count every second, easy

I think it’s because every American thinks they’re Irish
But potatoes are from the Americas
If you go back far enough, it’s all Pangaea 🤷
As are the..Irish..?
I think its because potatoes rot a lot slower giving the kid time to enjoy the clock.
And the kid can eat it in the end.
Oranges seem a good alternative. Oranges and Tomatoes used to be extremely abundant in the U.S. not sure I want to check their prices now
European here, France, maybe we should use black coffee and a cigarette.
Probably because potatoes are less messy than citrus fruits. No teacher wants to deal with an even stickier classroom.
Yeah, I could probably do it.
300 million what, though?
Grams of gravel
Fuck yeah, dude. I can never have enough gravel.
Yeah
Ok, then yeah, I’d like to try. Do you need my credit card, or do you take Venmo?
It’s lice. You get 300 million lice.
Now, can you build the potato clocked, huh?
Damn. One day it’ll be something good. Ok, just add it to the lice pile over there.
Yeah
Potatoes for the potato clocks you build after the three days
Wow, that’s like way more than $10 worth of potatoes.
Nail bites
Slightly off topic, but I’m curious if anyone here knows how to overclock a potato.
It depends on whether the BIOS is unlocked.

Yes, but first you must overcome the friction from the starches by adding butter.
NOOOOOOOOOO

what am i going to do with 300million potatoes if i can’t build clocks for 3 days?
What’s the money even worth without my tater time? :(
Well, when you’re a multimillionare, you can have a lot more tater time!
Depends: 300 million what?
If it’s dollars? Sure!
If it’s feral hogs, I guess I better learn how and get to building ASAP!

It’ll be hard but I think I could do it.
Mr. Wizard would have loved this… RIP
Ain’t worth it. I need potato clocks too badly.
3 days?! Nah fam, I’m out.
Can I still use it to power AI?
Yeah no, I’m not passing up on my integrity just to get 300 mio. Unbelievable
