Idk man... Arizona??

(Source: lived there. But also, for your intellectual consideration, fuck dst)

Indiana used to only have DST near Louisville and Chicago. Then Mitch Daniels ran a first failed campaign for governor on the "give Indiana DST" platform. When he ran again and was re-elected, he gave Indiana DST.

I was born and raised in Indiana, but I was living in California when it happened. It sucked that I had to move back and still deal with the DST I had to deal with in California.

I missed a connecting flight in Arizona once, because I didn't know that they don't observe DST. I thought I had another hour to get on my plane.

Arizona only has a change of about 4 hours winter to summer vs Northern cities that lose 7 though. The big fight in the north is whether you leave for work in the dark, or leave to go home from work in the dark.

But I also lived in Arizona and DST is so damn terrible. But I'm on team year-round DST because I want after work daylight to get things done (vs Arizona which is year-round Standard Time.

Saskatchewan is fairly directly north of Arizona, in the sane time zone, doesn't do it either. Everyone in Saskatchewan is familiar with forcing foreign electronics onto Arizona time because the developers just looked at a world time zone map that neglected to note Saskatchewan, in addition to having no DST, is partially in the wrong tome zone. Western half is supposed to be on mountain time, eastern on central, same as BC is cut down the middle into mountain amd Pacific. So anyways my phone decided I was on central DST Sunday night and switched me to Manitoba time, I opened an hour early and was a little perturbed, it's cause Bell outsourced everything to Bombay.

Sounds frustrating as hell

Dude, Bombay is not the preferred nomenclature. Mumbai, please.

/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.

Fun will now commence.
