I thought you could stream the Xbox service to PC. Did I imagine that or ate they just not going to allow PC users to stream this title?

In fact it is true.

I know your cowardly asses modded me down. You can't fight anyone who can fight back, only children who can't stop you from raping them.

"You are a rather solipsistic fellow aren't you? You never got on or off a bus in the dark so no one does."

Literally the opposite of what I said. Are you having Gemini write your comments?

Interesting point! I did not know that was the origin of their zone oddness. Thanks for that information.

Lots of other places drift west. Like lots of islands that are in the wrong zone for no real good reason. Probably silly reasons like past (or current) country ownership.

It's no surprise that most Slashdotters have lost their sense of wonder, as they've forgotten what it was like to be children.

Despite DST existing, I clearly remember waiting for the bus in the dark for part of the year.

DST doesn't do what it's supposed to do, and it kills people. It's weird to celebrate that.

Stupid it may be, but there are a lot of places in the world that already do that and are effectively already going permanent DST. In fact, some of these places then also do DST again, making double DST. Don't believe me? Well, let's look at a time zone map:

Time zone map
Places that do DST

Consider the US state of Alaska. It is nominally in time zones -10 and -11 (check the water north and south of the state). But for some reason, the whole state is in -9. And for some reason, despite their high latitude, they also do DST. I guess they have so much, or so little, sun that it doesn't really matter if their clocks align to it, but then why change twice a year?

But a sparsely populated place not very interesting? Then consider China. Despite being 4 time zones wide, the whole country is in a single time zone (+8). The western border of China is in effectively triple permanent DST. Must be annoying to have solar noon at 3 in the afternoon. At least they don't do DST, through, and a lot of China's population is on its eastern side, which is in the right time zone for its longitude.

But maybe an authoritarian dictatorship isn't a great example. Then turn your eyes to France and Spain. They are effectively south of the UK and effectively in the GMT (+0) time zone entirely. But for some reason, they choose to be in the +1 timezone, giving them permanent DST. Then they also do DST in the summer, making it effectively double DST.

Basically, a lot of time zones "drift" to the west. There are probably a lot of reasons for this, some reasonable, some perhaps less so (the cynical part of me thinks it is older leaders trying to get younger people to wake up earlier and stop sleeping in, though it is actually hard to assign that much forethought to country leaders).

Interestingly, if you look at the DST map linked above, it is clearly just a European and US concept. Not to get too political, but I expected the non-thinking, white-things-are-bad, extreme TDS sufferers to loudly call for an end to DST now that Trump supported it so strongly, but so far that doesn't seem to have happened.

I guarantee you that they gave themselves the right to review your input for any purpose and inform law enforcement if they feel the need. I haven't read the agreement, but I'd still bet money.

You're very good at ignoring things, like the rest of the story.

Initiative, Clearinghouse... What? Most of us don't even want to know whether those are programs or products, and certainly don't know now.

IBM is pretty bad at naming in general, their names really tell weird stories. And I say that as someone who used to work for them doing support for TME10, another beautifully named product.

On VMware fusion? So on top of an inferior OS and also inside of virtualization?

Your answer to Apple using twelve or more gigabytes of users' disk space is they should print and delete some documents? Do you work for Adobe, or HP?

This is only true when the data is insufficiently characterized to begin with. It should be obvious which parts are confidential. You flag records as such ahead of time specifically for purposes like this.

We do get a lot of weird cross signaling about the future, don't we? They cry about falling birth rates while making it less attractive than ever to try to raise children, complain that no one wants to join the military while making it a worse place to be -and what else are those unwanted children for? Certainly not for the jobs they're obsoleting with AI, but if you don't have a job you can't have health care or food aid. Unless you can find volunteer hours that is, so you can have health care but only if you work for nothing, welcome to our latest form of mass slavery.

Razor wire is easy enough to cut with the same tools you'd use for catalytic converters. Those DCs can get it, too.
