how do you feel about the fact that midnight and noon are going to be an hour off because they couldn't just pick standard? why are they so retarded? noon is when the sun is directly overhead, but not anymore

You're a massive faggot if you think timezones are a good idea.

There are six fucking time zones in the US. It was always going to be "off" for the majority of us you spectacular retard.

If you want noon to be when the sun is directly overhead noon would be at a different time of day every day of the year you numbskull

yeah but now it's literally going to be off for everyone

the sun moves up and down in the sky relative to the equator you numbskull. the earth is on an axis. it doesn't spin at different speeds. how fucking stupid are you?

and the "middle" of each of those six timezones should have correct noon sun position, idiot, now they'll all have additional offset

they are trying to force clock's hand

>how fucking stupid are you?
very

>directly overhead
most of the population of the US the sun never gets "directly overhead"
Sure the south coast is close enough but you cross the Mason–Dixon line its always going to be noticeably off.

>>yeah but now it's literally going to be off for everyone
Not true, people on the very edge of a time zone can have noon with the solar noon, for a small period of time when solar noon was close to noon. It moves around a lot.

Green is ahead and red is behind, this is standard time.

Standard time is based on celestial time. It is noon or very near noon when the sun is directly overhead in every time zone with standard time. Daylight savings time was always retarded. Keeping it forever is the dumbest shit, and shows that congress is completely inept.

kek

this is so stupid. they just broke using a watch for land navigation. retarded.

just set your watch forward an hour, your sundial forward an hour, account for the fact that noon is no longer noon when setting time using your sextant too. it's still really stupid.

They've been talking about doing this in the uk for years. I can't believe they actually went and did it your side. Jesus H Christ this is dumb.

>wE cAN mAKe MoRe dAyLiGhT!!!
If people aren't getting up early enough for the government's liking, this move is not going to change that. Once people get used to this being the new way time is numbered, cultural notions of an 'early' time to to get up will just shift to an hour later. More and more workplaces will shift to a 10am start time.

Every time I hear about DST I feel like I'm the only sane person in a world of lunatics.

>can navigate using a watch
>can't fucking add or subtract one
>literally ONE

i dont have a brainlet wojak brainlet enough for this post

you don't seem to understand what is being discussed here, nor do you understand how DST works in general, from what I can tell

Nigger logic
>Lets make DST all year and we get more sun HURR DURR
I hate this country so much. If they wanted to eliminate DST then do it. DONT MAKE THE FUCKING STANDARD TIME SHIFT TO DST

agreed
no you just seem retarded

We've had four referendums on it since 1975, each time its been rejected. Yet retards keep trying to make it happen.
DST is cancer.
Anyone who likes it is cancer.
Fuck DST.

Good new, DST will now be permanent retarded. The worst way to change anything is using DST instead of going Standard time and leaving it. Congress could fuck up a wet dream.

>the worst way is to change it to the way everyone agrees is better!!!!!!

Any Forums is just children posting anything contrarian these days

>the way everyone agrees is better!!!!!!
wow I didn't realize it was put to a public vote and the results came up unanimous, I guess that must be the case since you used seven exclamation marks

lattitude is more important. the sun is never overhead for me at all in the winter.

Absolutely. They should completely eliminate it and find ways to encourage businesses to open 8-4 instead of 9-5, if it's so important to them.

LEAVE TIME ALONE.

do you think that the senate consulted with anyone technical about this decision? even black science man? this all seems exceptionally retarded.
