Nah dude, what replaces the timezones? We live in an interconnected world. Timezones or a mechanism similar is nesscary. Have you actually left the area you grew up in or do you not understand time?
Sundials haven’t been relevant for a long time. We use network time these days, calibrated against UTC (and possibly represented as Unix time).
Personally I’d likely think it was neat to switch to metric time (ten hours per nychthemeron), or kiloseconds (87.6 in a nychthemeron), or even swatch @beat (1000 per nychthemeron).
Somewhat related, the English word for døgn (nychthemeron) is such a mouthful.
Listen it’s fine to be a tech bro but you need to get out more and realize that what is convenient for your Docker swarm doesn’t work when humans are involved.
I’m very aware of what it means to be human, especially every time the daylight savings nonsense changes. But what the number on the alarm clock says when I get up doesn’t mean jack shit as long as it’s the same actual time of day.
A sundial that has the numbers changed around is still the same sundial, and that’s the point here.
Timezones were created so that you didn’t travel west for 4 hours and arrive before you left.
Edit: do you think every town having their own time was helpful?
Arriving before you left was way too cool to be allowed.
Either you’re illiterate or you’re a troll. Either way I’m done arguing with you.

The general suggestion is to just use UTC everywhere. Ask if you don’t know what UTC is.
Yeah, and it’s a dumb idea. Did everyone here forget about sundails? You get rid of timezones and that’s what Imma use.

Get corporate to let you out of the engineer cave
