  • oh so now we’re right back around at time zones again, wonderful.

    except now it’s even more fun because there is zero standardization at all, but users are still going to expect for their computing devices to tell them a time that makes sense. Ah, but culture X thinks the day starts “6 hours before sunrise” and culture Y is more “the day starts when the sun is halfway between sunset and sunrise” and culture Z thinks something even more insane. Oops, now we’ve got locale-based time zones. Locale awareness is honestly even worse than time zones because its just so damn unexpected at times. My own computer has a horrifying mix of US and Europe locale settings, and that is already crazy enough.

    stupid people will always think everything is just so simple.

    Or perhaps, and hear me out, it could also be that men don’t speak up as often. Maybe they don’t die as often! Its almost like modern statistics on these topics have to consider the non reporting rate.

    WHY DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE FOR THEM TO BE ABUSED “BAD ENOUGH” TO DESERVE HOTLINE REPRESENTATION?
