    Sure he does, becsuse all time-measuring devices of any sort in his house are analogue and have to be changed manually, and none them have phones which automatically corrects the time.

    So in essences they have some clocks in theirs houses which are off by an hour for four months a year. They still use the time everyone else uses, because that’s how time works.

      You can pretty easily disable automatic daylight savings time adjustments on most devices, even my car has the option.

        Aye you can. But I just don’t believe in a whole family pretending to live in a different time than everybody else’s for 4 months.

        I do believe in lazy shits who don’t manage to change all the clocks which don’t get automatically updated, but for that person to actually put in effort to dodge the Daylight savings time? Not believable imo. You’d have to be really fucking obstinate. And you’d have to get yourself wife and children to do it as well.

          I wouldn’t call myself a lazy shit just because I don’t care to update the clock on my fucking microwave, oven and kitchen scale. Why do all these devices have clocks anyways it does not make sense.

            I mean I meant like if you have clocks on the walls and such. If you have them already, why not change. But you can’t help your microwave wanting to show you the time.

            Mine doesn’t. Never had a digital one, don’t really need one, the dial ones are good enough. My oven or airfryer don’t have clocks either. My wristwatch and phone update themselves.

            I was more thinking like my dad always being too lazy to change the clocks on the walls. Didn’t mean to offend you.
