@tomstuart Keeping it classy. But I must sleep!

@alicebartlett Does that mean the `Lng`s are effectively the Lib Dems and must form a coalition with either `Long`s or `Lon`s?

Oops, sorry. Still getting flashbacks.

CYBER-RIGHTS NOW!

CHANGE IS GOOD!

PUSH!

@RandomEtc @alicebartlett @blech With others raising their heads I’m now confident enough to align myself with team `lon`.

@bensummers Yeah, that to select the initial value, or reduce the list, is the best I’ve thought of so far.

@bensummers But not every country calls “summer time”/DST the same thing so some people won’t understand.

@bensummers Nice idea! Although it does add an extra step to the process.

@gwire Indeed, I don’t know what I was thinking!

@AnnieFeighery British people who think it’s always GMT in their country deserve to be late/early for things. Silly.

@gwire Might be a bit too minimal...

If a user has to choose their timezone from a list, what’s a useful but not bewilderingly-long list of choices? (Python’s pytz has 430+)

@alicebartlett I’m definitely keeping quiet then.

@suegyford Good point!

The four main plug or cable adapters: wrong age; wrong size; wrong specification; right.

Programming, typing, typing, typing… sometimes it feels like making a sculpture by putting together atoms one-by-one. L.a.b.o.r.i.o.u.s.

@gilest A friend in the US says he’s used scribe4you.com for ages, and it works alright. About $1/min.

@phl I haven’t seen it. Not sure how good. Written/acted/directed by Lena Dunham who’s done ‘Girls’, so has been mentioned lots recently.
