DAMMIT! I fell into the stupid #timezones trap again.
MightyTeapot said #GuildWars2 would do an announcement on Friday (today) at 11 british time! Hype!

And stupid me set a reminder for 11.

But of course it is an announcement from a bunch of americans, so OF COURSE it's going to be in the middle of the night for us europeans.
That's not 11, dammit, that's 23! 😠

I hate that I cannot find any official time on either the #gw2 site or the Arenanet one. It seems they're trying "underground" marketing via their streamers.

Grml.

Yukon's Permanent Daylight Time! ☀️⏰

Yukon made a unique decision in 2020: it permanently switched to what is effectively Pacific Daylight Time, meaning it stays at UTC-7 year-round. No more changing clocks! This aligns it with Mountain Standard Time, offering consistent daylight hours and simplifying life for residents. #Canada #TimeZones #Yukon #NoDST

Atlantic Time: Spanning Four Provinces! 🌊

Atlantic Standard Time (AST) covers Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and a small part of eastern Quebec. At UTC-4, these provinces spring forward for Daylight Saving Time. It's the first full time zone to greet the sunrise in Canada, setting the pace for the rest of the country! #Canada #TimeZones #AtlanticCanada #AST

Central Time: Canada's Geographic Heart! ❤️

Central Standard Time (CST) at UTC-6 covers Manitoba and parts of Nunavut. This zone is often considered Canada's geographic heartland. Like most of Canada, it observes Daylight Saving Time, shifting to Central Daylight Time (CDT) in the warmer months. A vast and vital region! #Canada #TimeZones #CentralCanada #CST

A wy o której dziś wstaliście? #TimeZones

For your information, currently I am in UTC+08:00 or MSK+5. Later I will move to UTC+07:00 or MSK+4. It is the most populous time zone in the world, mainly due to China's large population and using only one time zone. In Indonesia it is called as Central Indonesian Time or WITA. MSK, if you don't know, a short for Moscow Time.

Quick win: if it reproduces in that TZ, you’ve shrunk the search space from “mystery” to “timezone assumption.” What’s the weirdest timezone bug you’ve chased? #debugging #git #timezones

Newfoundland's Unique Half-Hour Time Zone! ⏰

Did you know Newfoundland is the only place in North America with its own half-hour time zone? Newfoundland Standard Time (NST) is UTC-3:30, making it 30 minutes ahead of the rest of Atlantic Canada. This unique offset reflects its distinct geographical position in the Atlantic. #Canada #TimeZones #Newfoundland #NST
