IdleOnemail received03:55
pleia2syn03:56
IdleOneanybody else notice that 8PM is missing on the poll?04:00
pleia2do you realize how hard 00:00 UTC meetings are?04:00
pleia2no one knows what day they are on04:00
pleia2it's really terrible04:00
pleia2for instance, IdleOne didn't show up for his membership board meeting04:00
IdleOnelol04:00
pleia2:)04:00
IdleOneright, I forgot :P04:01
pleia2it's sad, since 00:00 UTC is 5PM for me, such *perfect* meeting time for me!04:01
IdleOneyeah it works out to be a good time for me also04:02
IdleOneif I can figure out what day it is04:02
pleia2heheh04:02
IdleOneso anyway poll filled out by me04:03
pleia2yay thanks04:03
nhandlerpleia2: You should have changed that time to 23:59 like we did for the RMB04:10
pleia2nhandler: not actually worth the trouble, I doubt our meeting time will land that late anyway04:11
elkypleia2, it helps if someone puts out a timeanddate.com link, rather than just a time.04:12
pleia2elky: not really04:13
pleia2that RMB meeting we had was very specific, included time and date link, a note that said "this is thursday evening!" and everything04:13
pleia2still half the potential members got it wrong04:13
elky:(04:13
elkyImagine if you /hadn't/04:13
pleia2I just came to the conclusion that humans are bad at time zones :)04:14
elkyWe could just revert to the old way of dealing with time, and update our watches every km east or west we go.04:14
pleia2lol04:14
elkyEveryone talking exclusively in Local Time; what could possibly go wrong?04:15
pleia2meetings are better if we show up at different times anyway04:15
elkyMuch quicker!04:16
pleia2I ended up putting 3 time zones in my xfce panel, local, UTC and US Eastern (where my boss is)04:16
elkyYeah, I have several times in gnome calendar clocky thingie04:17
pleia2it's easy to *say* my boss is 3 hours ahead, but for some reason simple math frequently fails me04:17
elkyLocal, UTC and NZ where the majority of the company is.04:17
* pleia2 nods04:17
elkyAnyway, someone's just brought food smells in and my stomach has convinced itself my throat's been cut.04:18
* pleia2 should figure out about dinner soon04:19
macoIdleOne: the rmb is now set for 23:59 UTC ;-)04:33
IdleOnemaco: Been there, done that. :)04:34
macopleia2: i have 3 too. local, britain, and most-of-europe04:35
