The developers are already paid and are gonna get laid off regardless if game does well or not. You could give it away and I wouldn't bother to get it at this point. I hope MS rots.

Misery. Wait, hang on, sorry, I spelled that wrong. Missouri.

I dunno, both mixed drinks and a lot of craft beers have some absolutely fucky names too.

But absolutely agree with how dumb the names are for weed strains. Sick of "Watermelon Runtz Gorilla Chunk" as a valid name for some flower. How the fuck do I recommend that to anyone and how does that name describe it outside of the other esoteric strain names it came from being mashed together?

You sure took it that way, champ.

It would definitely remove the concept of noon being around when the sun is at its zenith in the sky. I think we kind of have a shared idea of what a waking day is, so from that perspective this change is a terrible idea.

I actually think it would be kinda cool in a way to have people have different relationships with what "time" or "day" it is. I'm looking at it very optimistically when I say that though.

I mean, that's already kind of an issue in the sense of determining what day something happened when using a timezone.

I think timezones help give a sense of shared "day" in the sense of when the sun is roughly meant to rise and set. I also think we're super used to them and I don't expect my opinion to change our relationship with time.

That said, timezones are wildly inconsistent and often difficult to track. This goes doubly for places that practice daylight savings of some kind. I like the simplicity of ideas like UTC and stuff.

To a degree, yeah, but timezone-aware times are the overwhelming norm for most people. I've had to work through timezones a lot when planning with online friends and stuff outside of a planner or something to do the conversion for me. I'd be cool with everyone using UTC though.

I'm not actually advocating for this. I just hate dealing with timezones. 🤷‍♀️

I'm sorry I'm trying to start a fight? How did you interpret my comment that way?
