Time and Date in YN

by **Dexterra** » Sun Oct 24, 2021 7:39 pm

From nanoseconds to millennia and beyond, the passage of time remains a conduit of change amongst nearly all people, places and things within this fourth dimension. Living beings grow, change and adapt. Plant life becomes green, red, brown and eventually green again. Empires are built, destroyed and succeeded. But the measurement of time varies from nation to nation, culture to culture or even person to person. Dexterra, for instance, operates in timezone UTC -5, using the Gregorian calendar with permanent daylight savings. What about your nation? How is the time and date handled where you are?
