DST ends tonight
I'm glad.
I'm a morning person and being dark at 8:30 in the morning is awful. But I do like DST in the summer. |
Looking forward to it. Hard to find dog poop on the lawn at 7am.
|
Doesn't mean much to me these days since most things reset themselves.
That said, I prefer DST. I wish we'd stick with that year round. I prefer more light in the evenings. |

Most of my clocks change automatically....but I always find things that don't later on.
Timers for things like lights and water softener....I always forget to reset. Microwave, alarm clock, and stove.....I just leave on the same time year around.:) |

The United States briefly tried permanent daylight saving time in the 1970s, but it was quickly reversed.
|
As someone that tells time by the shadows I'd much rather have roughly noon be roughly noon.
If people want a later or earlier schedule why not do that. The other solution be rotating clock faces to have high noon at 1 instead of 12. Tilted font with existing clocks. A mess. Quote:

Another important task not to forget:http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1730605630.jpg

I like daylight saving. I'd have it all year round if it was my choice.
Funny thing is the cat only took two days to figure out when the new 6:45am is. He's correct almost to the minute. Yeah, yeah, there is food and a kiss involved. |
Delaware Statutory Trust?

I get up when I feel like it.
I go to bed when I feel like it. I rarely check the time except to see when something I want to watch is on, and then I record most of that stuff anyway. if they changed DST and didn't say anything I'd notice the markets opening and closing at weird times, and the occasional airplane flight but other than that ... my solution to the problem. I highly recommend it. |
I forgot to set my dawg back an hour :D
|
Friggin fall behind nonsense! I was just looking out the window to the east trying to determine about what time I'd need to leave for my hunting property in order to be in my stand before it's light out. I look at the clock, look back to the east and then remember my clocks don't automatically set back one hour. Now I gotta get up at 5! Curse you "fall behind"!!!
BTW Steve, I'm givin ya one star for this thread because you pointed out that it ended and that made it happen! |

One more thought, why are you out lookin for dog poop on the lawn that early in the am?? Hobby? |
I have three things I have too set. I have an OLD alarm clock on the dresser across the room from the bed that I use only as a clock. So in the middle of the night when I go pee, I know what time it is.
The heat and AC thermostat we have is programmable, but I have to set the time. And my sprinkler system need to be set. My wife has about a dozen antique clocks that she has to stop the pendulums and just let the time catch up, then restart all of them. I don't touch her clocks. |

Alarm clock similar to this one....:) https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/AsUAA...OB/s-l500.webp I have a Grandfather clock and I just move the minute hand back an hour....maybe I'm doing it the wrong way? I don't want to damage it. . |
Didn't we talk about this an hour ago?

Are you really discombobulated for 8 months of the year and only happy during the 4 winter months? |
Year round DST would have sunrise here at just past 9:30 am in the winter months.... No thanks.
I would rather see them abandon DST and stay on standard time year round. Lots of studies on how DST late-evening light effects the circadian rhythm. |

I've always been a night owl. If it was up to me, I'd stay up late and sleep in. But it's not up to me. I get up at 415am half of the work week and 645am the other half of the work week. On the weekends, I usually get up 730-830. Yeah, you folks up north have crappy winter daylight for sure. I'd still rather have more light in the afternoon than the evening. |

I am hard selling the dogs on the time change. Dinner should have been 23 minutes ago. Border Collies let you know you are late....

^^^ They make a weird sound and mess-up some peoples sleep.
I have no problem with them. :D |
No wonder I feel so tired today.
|
It's done so we who don't fly can feel a bit of jet lag?

DST ends tonight
I know it’s not embedded, the process seems to elude me on the phone.
This cracks me up every time we play this DLS time construct game… https://youtu.be/51UpEKX39ZY?si=m-u5bkuttN3rE4xc https://youtu.be/uh5aN83Q8Sw?si=uFJKXn_JfnW6nyYT |
I had to set the clock in my 911 today. It took me a few seconds. Easy peazy.
|
^^^ I keep my 84 Carrera on DST all the time. It keeps perfect time, so I don't like messing with it. :)
I hardly ever drive it during the non dst anyway. If there was a vote on ditching DST, I would vote NO I like it the way it is....not that big of a problem to change the clocks twice a year. |
