No development really necessary… Just pick the corresponding standard-time timezone and turn off the DST flip flopping. E.g. if you are in California and go always-on, then simply mark it as MST year round. (i.e. just like you’re in Arizona today, which is MST year round, no DST). Owen

Always on or always off, I don't care which, just pick one and give sufficient lead time for development.

In a unanimous vote today, the US Senate approved a bill which would
1) Cancel DST permanently, and 2) Move every square inch of US territory 15 degrees to the east.
My opinion of this ought to be obvious from my rhetoric. Hopefully, it will fail, because it's likely to be the end of rational time worldwide, and even if you do log in UTC, it will still make your life difficult.
I'm poleaxed; I can't even decide which grounds to scream about this on...
Hopefully, the House or the White House will be more coherent in their decision on this engineering construct.
