We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.
** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**
Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.

Always found it weird that Spain has the same time as Poland... On the other side of Europe.
The interesting thing to me is, from what I know, they've seem to have just "adapted" to do everything one hour later because of this. At least that's what it looks like to me (from Portugal). For example, in Portugal you typically have lunch at 13:00, in Spain it's at 14:00 (same time), same thing with dinner. So even though they're one hour later they still do things at the same time as before.
Any Spaniards here please correct me if I'm wrong, I'd love to know if my perception of this is right or not
You’re absolutely right. It’s so much more convenient your way, though; everytime I’m fortunate enough to spend a few days in your wonderful country (I’ll never get the beef between some of our fellow compatriots) I feel like I’m making the most of my days thanks to your schedule! Viva Portugal caralho!!
Instead of NEIN NEIN NEIN it was TIME TIME TIME
Fuckin nazis. It's almost like they're the reason why we can't have good things. Every time you turn around you find there's something bad that happened and of course it was the goddamn Nazis that did it.
I hope whoever started the whole Nazi thing gets shot in the head.
We have excellent news for you
It's very likely the Netherlands would have adjusted their time to what it is now anyway due to proximity to Germany
