My wife prefers the madness of memorizing the offset of the displayed time versus the current time. It’s not even an integer number of hours. It’s just some random value since the last power outage.
My sincere condolences on being married to a mad person.
Perhaps some flowers and chocolate will help?
I absolutely refuse to change time on any of my analog clocks. I hate daylight savings with passion.
I display a clock at work that I proudly label as “Standard Time” year-round. Screw daylight stealings.
I can finally successfully rsync my phone over network instead of MTP!
well I for one have been dreading this day because now the clock in my car will be wrong for 6 months.
Daylight Savings lasts for 8 months, so it’s better to not change your clocks during the winter time
Daylight savings is what caused it in the first place. Screw daylight savings.
Screw the switch anyway. I think I’d like it if we made daylight saving time just be permanent, instead of staying on winter hours year round.
I fucking hate dst so much. I wish we could do away with it.
None in Arizona! It’s awesome!
Yeah but you have to live in Arizona.
It sounds miserable already
“What’s the weather like today?”
“Erm, gas mark 3”
“oven”
My car has the correct time again! I just said fuck it and decided that IDGAF and let it keep the standard time when it was Fall back.
I feel justified in my laziness today
We just switched to daylight saving, which happens during the summer. You kept it on saving time, not standard time, when you didn’t change it in the fall.
My car as a separate clock on the dash and one on the nav screen. I keep them a hour apart and just attend to the correct one depending on the time of year. If you think this is insane, maybe think about how insane it is that we still do this dst bullshit at all and vote for politicians like those in Mexico that are willing to drop this shit. I genuinely worry that as more clocks update themselves we will become complacent and will never be free from this tyranny.
I genuinely worry that as more clocks update themselves we will become complacent and will never be free from this tyranny.
But maybe we could reach a point where the clocks update every night so instead of shifting an hour at a time twice per year we can shift 20 seconds per day. I haven’t put much thought into this but I think it’s the next best solution after leaving the god damned clocks alone.
All of this iot shit, and all we really need is the ability for everything to just use an ntp server.
I wonder if we could set up all your devices to get that data from something like radio/Bluetooth. Then have your router/small device just send out the time from ntp and all your devices can just accept the message
That way you don’t need an internet connected microwave
If you’re going to make your device capable of setting its clock via radio, then it wouldn’t need to get its time from your router because it could just receive the signal straight from the atomic clock at NIST.
The time on my wheelchair is 12pm. Its 6pm. How did it get so wrong
i didnt know wheelchairs had clocks now. though i guess its kind of obvious that they would
