      I’d say this is an accurate description of what daylight saving is.

      Which is cheaper on the long run since this clock might do a few more time changes but sooner or later they need a new one anyway

    Now I want a wall clock where you can rotate the face but keep everything else the same for daylight savings.

      I don’t understand. That method or the one in the picture both change the time by 1 hour and 5 minutes, amirite? You have to change the angle between the hour hand and the minute hand, to adjust by 1 hour.

        You still read the minute hand the same way as before.
        Imagine both hands point straight up.

        Before that was 12 for the hour hand and 0 for the minute hand: 12:00 o’clock.

        Now it reads 1 for the hour hand but still 0 for the minute hand: 1:00 o’clock

        The hour and minute readouts are shifted by an angle, the same angle you’d normally add between the hands

    I never for the problem people have with it. Most clocks adjust themselves, that one hour isn’t important anyway, neither is counting time itself. It’s light, then it’s dark. Get your shit together in the light you need light for, do the rest later. Simple asf.

      Sure.

      How do I get to appointments on time if counting time isn’t important?

      How does one attain a routine without time?

      How do we track hours worked?

      Not simple asf.

    I’m starting to set my clock to the UTC time zone. No more problems.
