There haven't been any new posts for 40 minutes. I think that's a record. :nervous:

It's pretty early in the morning; most people are probably either asleep, at school/work or doing math like me. :D

By the way, does that daylight saving time thing take effect today? I never understood the point of that, other than to confuse people...

Well with DG being temp-banned, there's no spam for me to compete with, and so very little for people to respond to.

******, I believe. Daylight savings is so people can be awake during sensible hours, light-wise. Essentially, it's something that doesn't apply to most here. :p

EDIT: whoa, G__tse is censored!

Who's DG?


Anyway, I haven't been around that much this past week because of midterms. I have a midterm tomorrow which I haven't really studied for. Integral calculus at 8am on a monday, not my idea of fun. The reason why I haven't been studying for it is because I got sick and didn't really feel like it.

Well, if daylight saving didn't kick in, you would wake up after there many hours of sunlight had passed - you'd miss all that without daylight saving. :)
Title: Where is everyone?
Post by: kode on October 27, 2003, 04:28:15 am
solution to it all: adjust the time to between summer and winter time.
Title: Where is everyone?
Post by: Nico on October 27, 2003, 04:29:28 am
what's that daylight saving thing?
Kode, we switched to winter time just yesterday :) ( cool, sleeping one more hour :D )
Title: Where is everyone?
Post by: Petrarch of the VBB on October 27, 2003, 04:37:42 am
So now that we've got the winter time, can we just stick with it?
I'm damned if I'm losing an hour of sleep next spring.

I know, we did the same thing.

Bah, we changed to summer time... I lost an hour, right in the middle of exams too. :p :D
Title: Where is everyone?
Post by: Petrarch of the VBB on October 27, 2003, 05:20:15 am
Well, come next spring I'm not changing. So I'll be an hour out of sync, but I don't care.
Who's with me?
Title: Where is everyone?
Post by: kode on October 27, 2003, 05:37:45 am
I'm gonna change half an hour forward next spring. that keeps me almost in sync all year.
Title: Where is everyone?
Post by: Petrarch of the VBB on October 27, 2003, 05:40:02 am
Now that is actually a bloody good idea.
Title: Where is everyone?
Post by: kode on October 27, 2003, 05:45:49 am
I knew that at least once my father was working the nightshift the day you had to change the time back one hour. so basically, he had to work that extra hour for free.

Problem with that is that you'll be half an hour early or half an hour late for months. If you decide to compensate by leaving half an hour early to catch trains, buses, meetings, then you'll be effectively running on everyone else's time anyway. :p

heh, almost happened to me, I was done at 11PM. The hour changed happened at 12PM, wich jumped the hour back to 11. The dude who made the time shift worked one more hour, but I doubt he was not paid for it.
