[03-03 22:24][Chat]Icewolfz: yeah timezone width can make it bad
[03-03 22:25][Chat]Roku: so I see several options - 8 US timezones would be a pain, but smarter.
[03-03 22:25][Chat]Icewolfz: wont happen cost to much money
[03-03 22:26][Chat]Roku: I would really like to see is more like 50. Almost all clocks and phones made in the last 20 years can get time from radio / gps.
[03-03 22:26][Chat]Roku: A good example is that I live near the 45th parallel near the eastern edge of the Central time zone.
[03-03 22:27][Chat]Icewolfz: gps will probably be replaced
[03-03 22:27][Chat]Roku: know what kills people? driving into the sun. This time of year we just got to where the morning and evening commutes have the Sun just high enough to not be a pain.
[03-03 22:27][Chat]Roku: when we flip that hour next week, morning commute goes back into driving east into the sun.
[03-03 22:28][Chat]Icewolfz: granted most people use phone for time now so going timezone free would e possible nowdays
[03-03 22:28][Chat]Icewolfz: most wont due it to avoid the cost
[03-03 22:28][Chat]Roku: what if we just moved it 30 minutes? then another 30 minutes mid April and another 30 in mid May? then started moving it back the other way in late July?
[03-03 22:29][Chat]Icewolfz: just put it betwen the 2 current time changes
[03-03 22:29][Chat]Icewolfz: most people hate chanign time
[03-03 22:29][Chat]Icewolfz: even if it s 30 mins
[03-03 22:29][Chat]Roku: even with daylight savings, we are so far north we get sunrise at 4:45 am on June 21st.
[03-03 22:29][Chat]Icewolfz: be it 5 mins or 60 mins people will hate doing it
[03-03 22:29][Chat]Icewolfz: many have trie dot end daylight savinigs
[03-03 22:29][Chat]Icewolfz: and make summer time per year round
[03-03 22:29][Chat]Roku: but if your phone and computers just adjusted for you, a lot less issues.
[03-03 22:30][Chat]Icewolfz: it would hurt rural areas the most
