minus-squareKühlschrank@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·1 day agoIt used to be the same but them W. Bush extended summer time on both ends to really make things confusing
minus-squareSerinus@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up7·1 day agoWe should extend it more. Maybe an extra two months on each end.
minus-squareTheTetrapod@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down3·1 day agoI hate the opinion that we should switch to DST all the time. Why should we get to be special little guys with a weird time zone?
minus-squareGhoelian@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·1 day agoWell you wouldn’t call it DST anymore, so it’s just as arbitrary and weird as most other timezones at that point.
