If you want to get really technical, it's closer to .2425. On average.

^^ every so often we also have a Leap Second as well.

Re: Twenty-Four/Seven/WoT 365
i always hated the expression 24/7/365. why would you progress from hours in a day/days in a week/days in a year? that's not how the sequential evolution of that concept works

Re: Twenty-Four/Seven/WoT 365
I think it’s because “52 weeks a year” doesn’t have nearly as good of a ring to it, and 52 on its own doesn’t communicate the concept of a year nearly as well as 365.
And because idioms are inherently silly

I am always fascinated by the addition of Leap Seconds... so far 27 leap seconds have been added to our world. The last one was only added a little over a year ago.

All the art on that CD is from X5, which includes Mattrex sneaking up on Zero.

Re: Twenty-Four/Seven/WoT 365
I just returned from an impromptu trip to Toys R' Us. I like to go there once and a while just to browse and unwind.
I then found a SNES Classic.
It was just standing there on the shelf. I blinked a couple times to make sure it wasn't a mirage. I double-checked with an employee and he was like "Yeah, this is the last one."
I ran out of there like I had just pulled off a heist after buying it.
