Wish we would just keep it at Standard, instead of this DST shit.
38 4 ReplyWe are currently on DST. Standard is what we are moving to this weekend. Many states are passing laws to make DST (summer time) permanent. But federally it's not legal yet so only if it becomes legal federally then we can stop changing the clock. There was a bill passed in the Senate at the beginning of this year called Sunshine Protection Act. But it has yet to be put on the house floor. And it probably never will since the house is a shit show right now
33 0 ReplyI don't even gaf. Whichever way. I can get used to it. Just split the difference and shift a half hour and leave it. I just want to quit changing twice a year.
24 1 ReplyArizona hasn't done DST since 1968. What's preventing other states from doing the same?
5 0 ReplyIIRC the issue was we can’t pass “permanent standard time” laws but we could pass “permanent daylight time”. I could be wrong though

Can't wait to be blinded by the sun in the morning, and blinded on the drive home with all these super fucking bright LED headlights.
31 0 ReplyI can't say I miss incandescent bulbs, but holy fuck I miss the warm lighting they provided. Why does everything have to be so damn blue?
9 0 ReplyNewer cars are coming with warmer LEDs. I have a '24 impreza and it's almost perfect white now.
The projector housings definitely help too. Those LED retrofits are the dangerous ones. The halogen style housings just spill light everywhere.

Pro tip: Be unemployed so you don’t have to worry about getting up for work.

Anyone remember when the US Senate decided to let DST be on all year and it passed, then the House fucked it up because they are stupid dumb fuckers thinking they had more important things to do and did nothing note worthy? I remember.... I am so sick of moving the clock, especially in spring.... it hurts.

A whole 60 minutes of regretting your life choices! What a drag it only comes once a year.
7 0 ReplyDon't forget s other chance for the sun to be in the eyes while commuting in the morning!
8 1 ReplyTo me it just means a week of getting up and getting hungry one hour too early. My body hates daylight saving.
8 1 ReplyDaylight savings time ends for the season this weekend as we're switching back to "Standard" time.
Switching in general sucks terribly though. I agree with you there.
3 0 ReplyYeah I meant switching back and forth between ST and DST. We almost got rid of it in the EU! Then COVID came so we had more pressing matters I guess.

I can't wait to be at work during the rollback and think "it's only 3:30? I swear it was 2:30 like 2 hours ago"
6 0 ReplyI'm at work during the rollback. I won't even get an extra hours pay, either.
6 0 Replydamn, how's that even legal
12 0 ReplyI feel like it's not legal but they just aren't rocking the boat.
6 0 ReplyWeird shifts as a firefighter. It's legal because everyone agreed ages back it was too big of a pita to mess with and over the years it should end up being a wash. If we work over in the spring when the clocks move forward, we get a free hours pay.

Good timing with Halloween. Stayed up an hour extra last night, just gotta last to Sunday to be back in sync.
