You know, I knew that, and I really don't know how that happened. In any case thanks.

I will concede that it would make some things easier, like if someone says are you busy on the 5th, you can instantly know the 5th is a Friday or whatever. But I still don't like it. And without researching in detail, I'm betting there are holidays, particularly religious ones, that wouldn't be okay with moving the date to match the weekend closest to it for reasons.

The main hiccup is the system is off by a day. Some people "fix" this by saying the extra day should be "new years day" or something similar that exists outside the main calendar and doesn't have an actual date or day assigned to it. Personally I think that's kind of silly but it does work.

The second problem which to me is a much bigger problem, is he argues every month starting on Monday is a feature, I think it's a bug. The result of this is every date is the same day, every year. If you are born on a Wednesday, your birthday will always be on a Wednesday. I like it mixing up and getting to have your birthday on different days.

Also almost everyone will have a new birthday they have to learn and too many people would simply be unwilling to go along with that.

And all that is ignoring the monumental task of changing every computer system in the world.

Edit: also 13 is just kind of a rubbish number to work with and doesn't divide into anything nicely.

They also have hydropower which provides a constant base load, and basically they have just heavily optimised their distribution of power to be very efficient. In emergencies they are also able to import power from neighbouring countries.

Yeah but from an every day perspective you've basically got 250 or so units there for no reason.

I browse social media to find new ideas that I can't think of.

Ignorance is bliss?

What I really hate is when the show does have embedded subtitles, but then the optional subtitles display over the top of them with "speaking Mexican"

No I don't get attached to things like social media sites.

I understand supporting devs, I bought RIF years ago, but personally I couldn't imagine paying a monthly fee just to use reddit, regardless of who gets the money.

Couldn't agree more.
