Agreed, I'd definitely support non-DST, it's just a little closer to natural damn time. Virtually all of the EST zone west of New England is already pretty much on DST anyway. On DST, where I live, the sun hits zenith around quarter of two in the afternoon, it's just ridiculous.

Thanks ttfkam for your post, /. is so often just tiresome now but I had to laugh. +1 Painfully funny but true.

That can't be right, where is Seamonkey in this list?

Sure, it works now, but can you buy it? Still pretty cool that it works. So does vc.com, the first killer app.

Just seeing "strncpy" makes me feel young again. I thought compilers flagged that as insecure more than 16 yrs ago, but am not a real coder so don't know. Laser C forever!

Man, I wasn't too excited about moving to Win10 but now, boy howdy! Also a good reminder to install Resource Hacker, and mess around with shell32.dll

Well, I've had two deer just sprint directly into my car from off the side of the road, and after the second one I have no sympathy anymore at all! These deer went out of their way to ram me at full speed.

Let's see, I'm reading at just below +1, and have 76 full, 24 hidden, which I find an acceptable browsing level. But reading at +4 or +5? What would that be, 2 full comments and 98 hidden? Sure would cut down on my /. browsing time.

Pointless post here, but I just have to thank you for your contributions, some refreshment in an otherwise irritating buzz. I also find +1 browsing to almost make slashdot like the olden days.

Since the length of the day has been very slowly getting longer, is the night owl type a newer adaption? And since the length of the day has been over 23 hrs a day for ~300 million yrs, it's not really much of a mistake.

I also loved coding on the Atari ST series motorola 68000, what a great cpu for its day. Sixteen 32-bit general purpose registers! The 'movem' opcode! I was really close to buying a TT030 but it just never seemed to be ready. How sad I was when I moved to microsoft in the mid-90's and saw intel 80386 assembly, all that offset BS and protected memory, what a drag.

I still have my 1040Ste desktop and hard drive data stashed on all my machines to run with Steem every once in a while, it still works fine on windows 7. Heck, I can even still develop my 30 yr-old programs in LaserC, while I weep with nostalgia for the late 80's! Good times.

Yes, thank you. Words do have meaning, especially words that imply criminal activity.

I finally setting my comment thread to filter out most ACs, and set the threshold at just below +1, and it's a lot more like old /. For instance, this thread now has 12 posts with 40 hidden, so it's almost civil.

I don't see why this comment is modded funny! Seamonkey still works great, and the web works with it just fine. It is the real mozilla.

Ah, interesting! I confess to thinking only of N. America and not considering the other fine continents!

It's hilarious that all of China is one time zone.
