How many clocks do you have to change?

@shirokuro You never wind a mechanical watch backwards, either. I don't even do that with my quartz Casio analog.

Turns out the car changed itself.
Alarm clock is a simple button for DST on/off.
Three appliances- stove, microwave, coffeemaker.
Took less than 1m in total.
I still don’t get all the fuss this issue brings.

Oh for the record, I don't either! I was just laughing at how many clocks we have.
Also FTR, I really don't want them to do away with DST, move to permanent standard time or DST. I love the late, late summer evenings when it's light until practically 9:30pm, and I would hate for it to be super dark in the mornings all winter long.
I get that changing the time comes with some issues, but I prefer it to the alternatives (as I understand them).

Yeah few people seem to know that we went off of DST in the 70s and reversed ourselves within a year.
The vast majority of people who are against it aren’t thinking about the effects on half the year, they’re thinking only about not having to change clocks twice a year, as if everything else stays the same.
Of course for southern states it wouldn’t matter too much. But in the north, especially on the western edge of time zones, it would be a big deal.

You know, I don’t know if I knew that.

Yeah it would be so awful. I don’t get how people do not realize this.
