Rawgit URL is dead now, it's no longer accessible, so you have to use a different URL to get the clock.
Here is a working clock:
https://bl.ocks.org/nidefawl/raw/45ce917404c58f913ae9563c126b53cc/?raw=true
I want it to display fractional seconds, but, I can't get it to work. Is there any way to have an refresh rate or auto-update function?

Lol, before noticing these comments, I found a partial workaround: using OBS "browser" plugin "custom CSS" field to set the font size and color (e.g.
body { background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); margin: 0px 5px; overflow: hidden; font-size: 50px; color: lightgray }
), although I was not able to change the time format that way (so it was still YYYY-MM-DD etc.).Learning that just replacing "cdn.rawgit.com" with "gistcdn.githack.com" in the original URLs fixed them has been a relief! Thank you @SJP176 !
Wondering if something would be broken (as it looks like the URLs may refer to specific github commits?) in case @sam0737 updates the instruction page with the new URLs... [UPDATE: Probably not... the instructions are just in a comment. So, unless github prevents from editing older posts, he should be able to update the instructions without breaking anything at all!]
