Switching sucks but DST is better than Standard Time.
Which part of the year is DST and which part is Standard Time?
I know, but it seems like half the people that say they prefer DST have it backwards.
It's easy, the good part is DST (which is what we're currently in - Spring through Fall in the northern hemisphere).
i still dont even understand what DST even is, as far as i care because i don't is that DST just means we change the time, because god forbid the time be a little funky.
DST is shifting the sunlight later in the day during the summer.
too bad there isn't like a standard convention that establishes when something would take effect, how it would take effect, and at what interval.
No, daylight savings time is definitely what we're going to call it.
DST vsm Standard time literally doesn't matter. It's the switching between the two that kills people.
The real problem is that across the globe there is like 50 different implementations of it. Some places have a fucking half hour, or some goofy shit. Really fun handling time zones with that sprinkled on top.
