Who do I talk to about never going back to standard time after the DST change this year?
DST is superior in every way.Standard is dumb and it sucks.

I'll say this: With the way this year has already been going, DST likely won't feel so disruptive this time around.
― pplains, Saturday, 11 March 2017 16:12 (seven years ago) link
the only thing good about DST is that it prevents the sky getting light at 4am in june

The thing I'm proudest of Dubya for doing as president is lengthening the period of time the US is under DST each year.

If jobs were 7-3 rather than 9-5, would many care for DST?

granted: not many are 9-5 anymore.

i can never understand? which time is "standard" and why
― assawoman bay (harbl), Sunday, 12 March 2017 01:52 (seven years ago) link
i can't figure out which one is normal. all i want to do is sleep all the time so i just treat each transition as i am entering a new period of hell.
― assawoman bay (harbl), Sunday, 12 March 2017 01:54 (seven years ago) link
Standard now somehow exists for less than 50% of the year in most places, so I don't even know what's standard about it anymore.

Time zones approximate 15° orange slices of the globe. Under normal, non-DLS time, if you're at 0°, 15°, 30°, 45°, 60° (etc) longitude, at the center of each abstract time zone, the sun is most directly overhead at local noon.
DLS shifts an hour from morning to the evening, and was lobbied for by ice cream vendors and the like who benefited from more hours of post-labor sunlit leisure.

the law should be that civil twilight should never start before 5:30 pm (in Chicago at least) and if Trump could make that happen, then he has my vote in 2020
I hate 4:15 sunset (and on full darkness at 3:00 pm on cloudy days)

when do you like your daylight?
― Je55e, Sunday, 12 March 2017 04:41 (seven years ago) link
between 10 and 4 will do, thanks
back in the day i used to play pickup basketball after work, for which daylight is useful, but now let us plunge this planet in eternal darkness imo
― mookieproof, Sunday, 12 March 2017 04:49 (seven years ago) link
I hear you. I've been averse to the concept of craving daylight. I used to think it was a sign of being a simp.

I'm the opposite: the pain of the loss of an hour is offset by the coming of 4 blessed months when it won't be below 0°C in the daytime, for the most part.
