Older people always remind me to change my clocks for Daylight Saving Time. (lemm.ee)

I haven't used a clock in years that I need to manually reset. Older people don't seem to realize clocks on phones and other devices reset automatically.

I remember back when clocks were essentially sticks in the ground, you had to manually drag the sun across the sky by a few degrees to change the time. Those were the days, twice a year.

Man the year we learned how to change the speed of Earth's rotation temporarily was a huge innovation for that feat.
