Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

That's just changing your territory over to an adjacent time zone. Still kills the whole "daylight savings"nonsense of changing clocks.

The main bitch in here is that 5pm is too early to be dark. It's a tiny inconvenience at best to change the clocks. Most things do it on their own, now.

The jump in car accidents and heart attacks begs to differ.

But I agree, my biggest problem is that 5pm is too early for it to be dark. Death to standard time.

It's also a pain for software development and related fields. Xkcd did a strip about it.
