A friend of mine never uses UTC. What an idiot. Seriously, what a dumbass. Somone one should tell him what time that would be in EST. God, he's so dumb.
a link has been added for your friend
Thanks. What a stupid dork he is.
Hey, donβt be so hard on him. His account is only 16 days old.
You shouldnβt take advantage of her, itβs not fair
Wait, a minute...
Is that a UTC minute or an EST minute?
In the winter, we're -5. In the summer, we're -4. Winter and summer being defined as when the clocks change for daylight savings.
It's good to know even if you just have a link sometimes.
Edit: This is just from my memory. It could be more complicated than this.
Isnβt it more like -4 for a couple of weeks in spring and autumn?
You know, I'll edit and make it clear that I don't know what I'm talking about. You might be right.
EST is UTC-5, so tell your friend that it'll be between 14:00-14:30 EST on the 22nd of February.
My stupid idiot friend says thanks. What a real ding dong
