speaking about bitching about time, if you google "mountain standard time" you get the wrong time, you have to google "phoenix time". i had an interview where the guy called me when i was asleep and i had a turbo panic session about it until i figured that out
google is making the assumption that's likely correct for the majority of searches buuuuuut arizona doesn't have daylight saving time

i understand that. i am saying that even if you search for it during daylight time, google is going to give you that because it's what you probably want

are you confused about whether you live in the mountain time zone or the arizona timezone because googling for "mountain standard time" produces the former, and "phoenix time" produces the latter. the state of arizona doesn't go through daylight savings time so during daylight savings time (now) the two times are going to be different

(and can't post for 10 years!)

this is because arizona adopts mountain standard time year-round. so when dst is off, all the rest of the usual mountain time states are also on mountain standard time, but when dst goes on, all those states switch to mountain daylight time, one hour ahead. arizona does not switch, and so remains mountain standard time year round.

he's not sheriff anymore since even the people of arizona got sick of him

and yeah, the feds were totally going to get him now that he's just an 80-something retired guy, not when obama was actually in office and ol' sheriff joe was still bragging about feeding jaywalkers moldy food in tent city

I mean this is just like Microsoft

Publish and advertise an incomplete, lovely product - it rotates in more than one axis and doesn't even rotate fast, which is the only novelty of the loving thing

gently caress, this annoys me, who the gently caress are these people that make these decisions

I'm eventually gonna work at Microsoft (I work with enterprise Microsoft products as a consultant on 99% of my projects) and I'll yell at everyone from every Product Group all day (and then get fired after a week)

you belong in the bog of eternal stench

i think they just opened a fidget spinner model in a model viewer on the hololens and spun it using the built-in rotate feature, which is why it rotates slowly & off center
