I stand corrected.

Mmm I dunno. Whether he kept time or not, he understood in his first words to us that we needed it broken down into divisions we could relate to.

^proof it’s a lot of work to not depend on spellcheck, huh.

I stand corrected.

DON'T GO DOWN THAT PATH. For the path is wide but the end thereof is destruction

“Time manipulation” was originally a construct of the railroads to keep trains moving on time so everyone knew when they would come and go. Without “time manipulation” we would have no way to know what time it is anywhere else. What plan would we have if everywhere set their own time?

Actually it was God and Joshua

Lol, yeah. If you think about it, that was the ultimate daylight savings time.

I liked it when we were on Indiana time then Mitch Daniels screwed it up.

I HATE DST

LONG LIVE EST

Absolutely, 100% in agreement

I don't play golf very often, but when I do I don't need some made up twisting of what's right and natural to get in 18. Midnight golfers should work on their game, not the clocks

We shall soon mourn the passing of the 2024 season of DST. Long live DST.

my QoL is better when I have more daylight on the other side of my workday.

Move closer to the equator

 

[BugI02]

I MUCH prefer the sun rising and setting earlier. So whatever camp that puts me in.

EST, welcome to the sensible side. Circadian rhythm for the win

Or just build a mechanism into clocks to move them forward for 19.726 seconds every night at 2 a.m. for 182.5 days followed by moving them back the same amount each day for the other 182.5 days
