In-reply-to » @prologic An entire month of looking at presents that you’re not allowed to open? That’s torture. 😂

This is a better photo, and to be fair (as you can see) there’s only a small number of presents. mostly from neighbors. The reat is the kids Advent of Christmas gifts they open each day. – The night before my wife and I put the real presents under the tree (currently locked up in the server room 😆) 👌

For the last 2 years we have used this Moreton Bay Fig as our Christmas tree

The children were disappointed that we didn’t have a plastic one. But I think this one works great! Live pine trees are not common here. That was one thing I really enjoyed living in the US. I loved the smell of the Xmas pine tree! Anyone else care to share pic of their Xmas tree??? we would love to see them!!

In-reply-to » I share with you the first 'public alpha' of the tool to vote for the best time on an International Call.

Thank you for the feedback and your votes (Bananas, Søren Peter @darch@neotxt.dk, prologic) !

On the programming side, this problem is not that challenging (yet). Ask availability to your friends, and make some statistics with it, sum, sets. I think this will be done quickly.

On the product design and user interface sides, it has been challenging.
It’s different if you ask to decide between Tue 9pm, Wed 9pm or Thu 9pm. vs. deciding two days, vs a whole week (24 x 7 = 168 possible options)

We have discussed getting inspiration from Doodle and Framadate but I find that is difficult to make it accessible, and for a week’s view those are also confusing.

Currently, I’m focusing on the use case of deciding on a Weekly call on Fridays and Saturdays in the mornings or afternoons (about 48 different options), but I’m trying to find a better strategy. Perhaps divide and conquer (Fri mornings, Fri afternoons, Sat mornings, Sat afternoons)

What do you think?

In-reply-to » Speaking of DST, it appears Mexico will abolish it?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Thanks for the catch-up. I live in that state, so I experienced firsthand the change.

Basically, our state had an ICANN region (Mexican Mountain Time/MT), but the government said “Forget that and follow Mexican Central Time”.
But as the state on the border, Texas, USA, stays with American MT, that made some trouble between companies and offices.
That has happened before, the municipalities/regions had different start and end for DST for 1 or 2 weeks, but now they have 1 hr offset all the year.

tl;dr ICANN timezone America/Chihuahua is not gonna be used anymore. Some municipalities are going to switch to America/Mexico_City and some others to US/Mountain. In the future, when USA removes DST, those states are going to follow. Regions on the border will follow American regulations. #sovereigntyFTW
