Daylight saving time works by shaming your work ethic into getting up because the clock says 6:something instead of 5:something, thereby making you start your day sooner.
A couple of years of always-on DST will blunt that pretty quickly and nullify any benefit.

@futzle@old.mermaid.town I used to not be bothered, then find it annoying to not be able to polar align the scope until quite late at night, but now I can see the advantage to people using solar to make dinner without needing a battery.

@futzle@old.mermaid.town I've loved daylight savings for the last few years because it meant my 2am meetings became 3am (and then 4am once the US exited DST). Now between jobs, I'm feeling entirely ambivalent towards the upcoming change.
