Please, for love of God, just end daylight savings time. That is all I ask.
Fuck that. End standard time and make everything savings time. Much prefer longer, brighter evenings
I am fine with literally any time as long as it remains constant.
Monkey paw, time stops for everyone but you.
Deal.
Same. Pick one. I don't care which. They both have their pros and cons. Plus, it's an arbitrary number and nothing actually forces people to believe things like "the work day should be 9-5" (though admittedly, changing social norms is difficult).
Saskatchewan has the right idea. Its timezone is a bit weird, but nobody there cares and is just glad to not have to deal with DST. For non Canadians: it's the part of Canada in this map where something that looks like it should be -6 (central time) juts into -7 (mountain time). They don't have DST and it's one of the few things Saskatchewan gets right anymore.
I like daylight savings.
Boo.
Queensland, Australia got rid of it, so despite them being directly north of New South Wales, they’re an hour out half the year.
Sounds like a New South Wales problem.
