Pets everywhere suffering from a delayed breakfast due to #DST ending shake their little furry fists at politicians unable or unwilling to scrap the #clockChange.

Right, let's go to bed, because it's actually over 11pm... uhh well maybe not because it's 9pm in the 'u'K..??

Very confusing don't you think this summer/winter time stuff? Even more so when you sort of live and work in both countries.

Let's get rid of this DST/summertime setting, shall we?

Sleep experts call for UK to abolish twice-yearly clock changes #UnitedKingdom #UK #environment #time #ClockChange #politics #UKpol https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2024/10/241023131351.htm Daylight saving time clock changes have substantial, but short-lived effect on how much sleep we get https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2024/10/241025122542.htm

Question about formats for datetime literals:
Is there a way to disambiguate the hour that is used twice in "daylight saving time"?
Or is this the catch all argument to never use such a time zone in electronic communication?

Morning!
In Europe people are asking the important questions:

What time is it?
Why do we change the clocks?
What is time any way?
Which of my devices do I trust to tell me the correct time?
Have all the electronic things changed?
What time is it in the car?
What on earth is the thermostat talking about?
Does anyone know how the oven clock works?
Does the roomba even have a clock?
Who do we need to kill to stop this infernal nonsense?

Since, it is almost that time of year:

If you are in the U.S., are you for or against abolishing Daylight Saving Time (DST)?

I really wish we could stick to just one time. Messing around with clocks twice a year seems antiquated and illogical now. It's not good for my body clock either. I take weeks to adjust. #ClocksGoForward #ClockChange #DaylightSavings

My daily escape from the gloom and UK politics photo is of my friend and husband changing the angle of all the #solarpanels. We always do it when the clocks change in Spring and Autumn ...#clockchange #France

My favourite thing about Clock Change Day?

Well, I stop waking up at early hours because my Spidey-senses settle down.

Four weeks prior to it: up at 5am for no reason.

And it doesn't matter if it's March or October. Same story, for four weeks!

Don't forget to adjust your clocks

"Scientists generally advocate for permanent ST, or “natural time,” as Gentry calls it because it better aligns people’s schedules with the sun year-round. “People who study the issue are all in agreement,” he said."
