[03-03 22:26] [Chat] Roku: A good example is that I live near the 45th parallel near the eastern edge of the Central time zone.
[03-03 22:27] [Chat] Icewolfz: gps will probably be replaced
[03-03 22:27] [Chat] Roku: know what kills people? driving into the sun. This time of year we just got to where the morning and evening commutes have the Sun just high enough to not be a pain.
[03-03 22:27] [Chat] Roku: when we flip that hour next week, morning commute goes back into driving east into the sun.
[03-03 22:28] [Chat] Icewolfz: granted most people use phone for time now so going timezone free would e possible nowdays
[03-03 22:28] [Chat] Icewolfz: most wont due it to avoid the cost
[03-03 22:28] [Chat] Roku: what if we just moved it 30 minutes? then another 30 minutes mid April and another 30 in mid May?  then started moving it back the other way in late July?
[03-03 22:29] [Chat] Icewolfz: just put it betwen the 2 current time changes
[03-03 22:29] [Chat] Icewolfz: most people hate chanign time
[03-03 22:29] [Chat] Icewolfz: even if it s 30 mins
[03-03 22:29] [Chat] Roku: even with daylight savings, we are so far north we get sunrise at 4:45 am on June 21st.
[03-03 22:29] [Chat] Icewolfz: be it 5 mins or 60 mins people will hate doing it
[03-03 22:29] [Chat] Icewolfz: many have trie dot end daylight savinigs
[03-03 22:29] [Chat] Icewolfz: and make summer time per year round
[03-03 22:29] [Chat] Roku: but if your phone and computers just adjusted for you, a lot less issues.
[03-03 22:30] [Chat] Icewolfz: it would hurt rural areas the most
[03-03 22:30] [Chat] Roku: AND without daylight savings, we have sunrise after 8 am for a month in December. Its a shitshow.
[03-03 22:31] [Chat] Icewolfz: damned if you do, damned if you dont
[03-03 22:32] [Chat] Roku: right. So if I had my way, I'd say all non-classic clocks will set themselves every week on Sunday morning. And do the daylight savings thing to the tune of about 120 minutes total swing, a few minutes a day, fixed to the solar maximus where you live.
[03-03 22:32] [Chat] Icewolfz: sadldy to many people would complain
