Prof. Sam LawlerFUCK all my North American meetings get one hour earlier this week?!! AUUUGHHHH I hate daylight savings time.
Oh no... EXCEPT FOR THE ONES AT HOME IN SASKATCHEWAN. Welp, my meeting calendar is fucked, pretty sure that it's going to get all the time zones wrong for everything forever now. (Luckily I will leave NZ before they go off daylight savings time, or I'd have to do another rant and watch my meeting calendar get even more fucked...)
GunChleoc@sundogplanets If the planet could at least agree on the effing date when they do this nonsense
Dr. Eric J. Fielding, PhD@gunchleoc @sundogplanets I don’t see any way to avoid having the International Date Line, unless we go to a flat Earth
Ken Butler@gunchleoc @sundogplanets Europe does.
Alexandre Olivanot possible. daylight savings is supposed to be around summer, but summer occurs at different parts of the year depending on which hemisphere you're on.
back when (most of) Brazil had DST, my US and Europe weekly meeting times varied by up to 2 hours throughout the year, and remained at each extreme for months
Europe vs US out-of-sync DST is like playing that game in easy mode

zl2tod@zl2tod No I haven't had the honour yet. Someone gave me a copy of one of his excellent books though, and I've been using it to learn a lot about Māori astronomy.
I hope you get to bump into him while you are here.
Darryl Shpak@sundogplanets I used to work for a company with offices in Manitoba and Saskatchewan. Whether meeting times changed for DST depended on who booked them. Twice a year everyone’s calendars would suddenly have a bunch of conflicts as half their meetings shifted around.
