We just use a USB hub. Works great!
As a cyclist + walker I support trails but the way this was carried out was destructive + dismissive. Local ecosystem experts offered ideas on minimizing damage once they saw preliminary work. Their suggestions were not taken. A number of us scrambled to save native bulbs over a rainy weekend. π₯

It didnβt work too well in 1974 when the US tried it. People hated the long winter mornings and it got repealed the next year. We get even less daylight here. Iβll be surprised if it sticks around.
We get even less daylight than our southern neighbours. I expect folks will hate this decision by February.

I doubt itβll last. When the US tried out permanent daylight saving time they rolled it back after the first winter. People hated it.

Canβt wait to wake up in pitch black for several extra weeks every year.
Betting this will go as well for us as it did when they tried it south of the 49th parallel.

Been there. Sometimes I try to make the ugliest thing I can to remove my own expectations and break the slump. Other times I come back to a hated/disappointing piece days/weeks/months after making it and somehow time has turned it into something I like.
