I bet the Vulcans never tried to "Save Daylight" by changing the clocks twice a year

I don't understand why it never occurred to anyone that they could just change the times they do things instead of changing the clock

This would be a Warhammer 40K thing.
On all ships of the Imperium, using complex mathematics and ancient tomes to achieve synchronisation across the galaxy and even inside the warp, the clocks are changed by one hour twice a year, in an elaborate ritual.
No one dares ask the reason behind it, but it must be done, to appease the machine god.

Programmers and engineers everywhere agree. Fuck DST.

They won't tell you the Bell riots were actually about daylight savings time.

I regret to inform all of you that it is technically Daylight Saving Time and not Daylight Savings Time and now you must suffer with this information with me

Imagine how fucking complex it would be arrange an appointment with somebody on another planet.

"See you at 11 o clock then?"

"Eh, we've only got 10 hours in a day. Spins like a motherfucker."

I would seriously consider living in Utopia Planitia.

Like, I'll take basic crew quarters as long as my porthole has a view of the yards.

Vulcans have an aneurysm trying to study Earth history.

Technically we need to stay in Daylight Savings Time. I.e. what we have now with more light in the evening. We just came from standard time: more light in the morning. We just need to stop changing now.

It's much more logical to blow up the sun instead.

When Vulcans decide to save daylight, they build a Dyson Sphere.

I never thought DST was a big deal until I lived somewhere without it, and let me tell you that sunlight from 5 to 8:30 is infinitely better than 4 to 7:30. What percentage of people are awake at 4 vs 5 do you think?

All I'm saying is first light at 3 AM sucks ass

No, they would have been exceedingly logical and rational, and never done anything other than Standard Time, which would have seen local noon line up as close as possible with solar noon.

Because why call it “noon” if it’s more than a half-hour out?

Idk man... Arizona??

Even with the loss of an hour, it's daylight until 9:30 pm here during the summer. I'm okay with losing an hour. What's rough is that the sun goes down at 4pm in the winter, even with the gained hour.

In all honesty i don't mind daylight savings, since most of the clocks i have that i need to change the time manually are imprecise enough that by the time i need to change the clock they have shifted by a decent amount.

Tldr: for me it also acts as a remider to set my clocks in sync again since they tend to get out of whack after a while.

For all I know, Vulcan revolves around its axis once in exactly 24 hours and thus doesn't need daylight savings time to keep it sunny at 4pm.

The usefulness of daylight saving very much depends on your latitude. In the winter in the north of Scotland you'd have children walking to school on the pitch black without daylight saving time.

Yeah, Mexico bean chilling rn, urbanism movement hitting here nicely too c:

Its only one hour. I'm not sure why people get so mad. It gives you more daylight in order to get more work done.
