general

we've passed an anti-daylight savings bill twice now

on social media

I suspect it'll get ratified this time

I don't hate DST, because I think it achieves what it sets out to do

Okay but what if israel says it is actually a good thing first

will it pass then

but I get why people hate it

it never helped the farmers

I think it's stupid and pointless

It fucks me up for a day every year because I always forget despite knowing it is that day the day prior

but then it does not matter

it just makes it so twice a year people have to readjust to having an hour less or more of sleep

I think people normalize to sunrise/sunset more than they care to admit

I normalize to when I go to sleep + 7-8 hours

did I go to sleep at 4am, well hell I am waking up at noon

and that even if we get rid of DST, there will be some societal drift each way (which there is already since DST is not granular)

I am going to bed now so I can wake up at 6

im telking ya, that and a combination of some UTC thing

I think people in the northern/northeastern states cared about it more because that one hour is the difference between having a dark morning or not, and a light out evening or not

but where i am

it makes zero difference

the season matters more

It does make a difference here, because it is pitch black at 6am and then it shifts and it is no longer pitch black then

but that only affects me seldomly

yeah, and you're in the north so that tracks

dst doesn't even do a good job at that either

xbrox needs dayling savings half a year in the artic circle

exactly

Honestly fuck it

instead of just verticle slice timezones

horizontal ones too

make time grid

lmao

that fixes it

make things even more confusing

UTC+128

UTC3xEST4

No, you give coordinates like UTC + (3,5)

3 right, 5 up

every time grid would have different levels of daylight savings

Infact

5 minute dst

lets make the grid so very fine

can we just use vectors then?

so its actually a time continuous mapping

I am not 100% sure what we're talking about but I rise earlier in the summer regardless of when I fall. Then I typically put myself back to sleep.

so they would change at different rates

each location has its own percise time based on lat and long

let's go back to using sundials

this is awful

you have a formula, it tells you your local time given your location

this is just utc

plus info

Then, instead of daylight savings time, you can just factor that into the equation

as a sinusoidal wave

so it oscillates over the course of the year

Now there is never a sudden jump

because the shift is like 5 seconds or something every day

sundials do all of this naturally

so spooky was right

lets only use the sun

someone could then travel as a consistently right speed that time never changes

Dialga, what do you do when nuclear winter coats the sky in a hellish ash storm

what then

Technically luddic, you can already do that

time can be redefined

at that point

you can't do that

that breaks physics

we have defined it in a standardized way

unless you mean the 24 hour clock

Physics should be broken

in which case yeah you could

but that would suck

Dialga, I wish you a very unpleasant pull in blue archive

don't they say biologically we should have like 4 hour sleep 4 hour wake crazy cycle or something

That already happens pika

i have to save to hit pity every time i want someone

Dialga, I saw a clip of the two train lolis in a boss fight where they multi track drift

I wish those two showed up in the anime
