I think that's a great move. Time is relative, after all.

My honest respect to this people.

If time (on a clock) is still needed, UTC will always be there and do fine. 😀

Anyway, I thought I should share this news with you,
since it's one of these rare news that is both refreshlingly harmless and relaxing.

Time is essential to everything modern. And indeed to know how old you are.
Without time, you will not be able to throw a birthday party at your children or even make food.
(Even the old vikings knew that)

When do the people come to collect the trash?
Let's meet for the important thing at what time?
I have to call my grandma who lives on Sommaroy, she goes to bed when it gets dark. Hmm, given the half year darkness/brightness... oops.

Nice idea but hard to pull off

Bah - without time, you're never late. More power to 'em, I say!

This is great news for us owners of PCs with dead CMOS batteries. Never having to set the clock again!

Aaannnnd... it was a hoax by the tourism bureau to get more tourists in the area... yay 🙁
