I say set it to the most sunshine in the evening and leave it alone

Agree.

 

[volwindy]

Yes!

 

[governmentmule]

I don't think they are saving any money these days

way back when they set it,people would actually sit outside and not turn on the AC till bed time,we didn't have AC till us kids where out of the house

Agreed. Imo, it's stupid now

Agreed. Imo, it's stupid now

I just meant that i prefer it getting dark early, and being cold.

Well, I'll apparently take the unpopular route....

I don't care one bit.

I understand the astronomical reasons and agricultural/everyone liking an extra hour at the end of the day reasons.

I don't care about changing my clock twice a year many months apart. I just don't care.

Long live DST! Haha

 

[InVOLuntary]

Why don't they just split the difference? Just move it ahead 30 min from standard time and leave it there.

I normally do, but it shortens my shift tonight so I'm all for it.

Mine too👍

I just wish they would pick one or the other and leave it alone. There's no need to make everyone reset the clocks every 6 months.

Then people wouldn't know when to change their fure alarm batteries! Ha

My sentiments exactly. Now that we're down to just 4 months of "Standard Time", it's gotten even more ridiculous.

Saw an article yesterday where some New England States are even looking at going permanently to Atlantic Standard time.

 

[JohnMarxism]

It's serves no purpose, essentially.

It's time to get rid of DST

I agree that time change is useless now, but NE going to Atlantic time makes no sense either.

I don't think it matters that much. 8 months out of the year they'd basically be on EDT anyway.

True. But if that's the case just adopt EDT permanently.

My least favorite part is working with European countries for VTCs and having to keep track of the timing differences and the difference between Eastern and Zulu time. It's ridiculously stupid that countries don't switch between Daylight time and Standard time at the same moment.

I worked outside early in the morning and prefered the light then.

 

[Rocky_Top_Vol13]

Why is DST still a thing? Serious question.

 

[Coug]

There is something seriously wrong with you.

Getting dark at 5:30pm is just stupid.

 

[tumscalcium]

Ok, so I'm definitely itself in the minority here.

I just don't care. One bit.
