One year, I manually changed my plug-in alarm clock forward not knowing that it did it automatically (so it basically moved ahead 2 hours), my computer changed on its own but my cell phone for whatever reason didn't even though it should have, so I had 3 clocks with 3 different times on them and had no idea as to which was actually right. I spent most of the day not knowing what time it actually was.Plus, most tech devices automatically update the time for it. I woke up this morning without even knowing about DST, but my PC and cell phone already handled it for me.
All I had to do was change my cheap plug-in clock.
I thought it was more about electricity conservation at this point?Neil deGrasse Tyson ?@neiltyson 1h
What would aliens say if told that Earthlings shift clocks by an hour to fool themselves into thinking there's more sunlight
Man, if only there was a way with your computer and cell phone to check what time was correct in your area. That would have really simplified things.One year, I manually changed my plug-in alarm clock forward not knowing that it did it automatically (so it basically moved ahead 2 hours), my computer changed on its own but my cell phone for whatever reason didn't even though it should have, so I had 3 clocks with 3 different times on them and had no idea as to which was actually right.

Seriously, WTF? There are some super sensitive snowflakes about. On that note, holy shit...yeah its maybe kind of a stupid concept, but its one mildly annoying day in the spring and one badass awesome day in the fall to deal with. Cry more OP. Even this one isn't half bad when the realization sinks in that this fucking winter is drawing to a close. Sack up and be a man.is there something keeping you from going to bed an hour earlier and getting all the sleep you want?
Most people/services/nations who matter already have. Let plebs keep their potential for confusion. It also doesn't effect much if they did.Eliminate AM and PM and move everyone to the 2400 system.
Agreed. Make it permanent, don't take DST away.1+ for an extra hour of sunlight.
