Brilliant..LOL!
Just move the clock forward and leave it. Then all the lobbyists can still get their extra hour of golf after work and the rest of us don't have to mess with our clocks twice a year.
No wonder I've been in the shower since last night!
I beat the change by not changing the clocks an hour back in the fall..
So there...you time Nazi's
Here at FR we keep our standards...
Then there was the strawberries. Who had the key to the food locker? ......click,click,click,click.....
Very much appreciated. Will go look at it.
This could be an old computer/Windows, or something. In the upper right hand of add/remove programs, there's only the ordinary minimize, expand, and close buttons and below that a Sort by pull down menu with options of : name, size, frequency of use, and date last used.
Someone needs to go to rehab for this!
I have some DSL off-sets for sale - CHEAP! Do it for your children.
Freepmail me and I can connect you to my PayPal.
You'd don't want to be stuck on yesterday's time like those idiots without clocks.
"I have some DSL off-sets for sale"
Got my acronyms all bunched up, I meant DST.
See! It could happen to you, too.
Buy those off-sets now, before,...
it's,...
too,...
laaaaate!
Well, at least that's on purpose.
test status.
The situation seems to be resolved. You should resume normal activity and return to standard frequencies.
It goes much deeper than you imagine. "Mean time" or "mean solar time", if you will, is merely a construct, invented by a dead while male to preserve the priveleged place of the phallocentric Sun over the gynocentricism of the Moon. The so-called equation of time the means they use to justify the inequality of the status quo.
People enjoying life in harmony with nature as God intended, are unshackled from the Western tyranny of temporal precision and punctuality. Sorta like civil service.
LOL! It's just like jet lag.
Actually, the change of daylight saving time will rules probably cause many problems that can never be fully resolved as a result of ambiguities created in data format conversion. Some systems and applications timestamp events and files using local time; others use UCT. Unless a system or application has translation routines that can deal with different time change rules for different years, there will be four weeks worth of data from all years prior to 2007 that will be botched when it's accessed. Worse, if the timestamp gets converted from UCT to local time using one set of rules, and then converted back to UCT using another set (or vice versa) the data will get shifted by an hour with no sign that anything is wrong.
While it's unlikely that anyone will be interested in most access logs that are over a year old, that still doesn't mean it's a good idea to retroactively garble them.
Follow up, don-o
Our system updated fine. It's still a manual process as each person has to make sure his pc is patched fully and has to run the update tool.
However, a local credit union told customers that their system wasn't working and they are taking transactions by paper.
I don't know how widespread this is but all it takes is one of these where someone has an urgent situation.
Cheers,
