Hey y'all, I'm relatively new to redstone but know (what I think are) the basics. While working on random builds I happened across this weird device that will remain powered off for a certain period of time (about 7 seconds), and then power itself on and off several times, and then seemingly settle back into an off state. It starts with either the torch (or perhaps the target block, I don't know how to tell which), which in turn powers the smooth stone in the top right, which turns the torch off thru the target block. From what I understand that should be a stable clock, but it does eventually turn off, only to seemingly turn itself back on later. I know it's not a repeater lock thing because the repeater never locks. It's also not a chunk-border weirdness situation. What's going on?! It's neat but I don't understand it lol

Redstone torches “burn out” when you toggle them too quickly, you need to increase the repeater’s delay or just make a repeater clock (two repeaters in a loop, quickly pulse the loop with lever)
