I also believe the "earth", as in dirt, that was referred to in the 14th century was generally referring to cultivable topsoil. You're not going to find much of that on the moon, mars, or a star.
Yes, it is a hack. But, given that it is 100% impossible to fix the root problem in any meaningful way before global catastrophe, any band-aid solution that will buy us some time should be considered.
Oracle will start charging for Oracle Java, which is derived from openjdk and comes with its nice [citation needed] installer and update client.
However openjdk will still be free (GPL). The problem is that to use it you have to either go through the laborious and poorly-documented process of installing it yourself or find another group that has built an installer for you. Zulu and Corretto are two examples of the latter.
There is no easy-for-the-masses time algorithm that can ensure the clock strikes 12 noon when the sun is at its highest point over your town every day year-round.
Therefore, just pick a single time zone that loosely models the above and best fits the needs of the community, then stick to it.
All those people who set their computers spinning on pointless calculations and didn't win the bitcoin lottery have achieved literally nothing other than waste.
Those who did earn a bitcoin only succeeded in growing their own personal wealth without contributing anything useful to anyone else, and in the process made it that much more difficult for the next person to find one.
Wouldn't it be a better idea to focus the gigawatts of excess solar energy our planet is absorbing every day, and help fight climate change at the same time?
Natural timezone? There is no single natural timezone for a given location. The time at which the sun is highest in the sky changes depending on the season.
Therefore it makes sense to let each location make up their own timezone, within reasonable limits of course, and stick to it.
While the mass is indeed concentrated at the singularity, the event horizon is commonly used to define the boundary, and thus the size, of a black hole.
See, this is why we need more CPU and GPU cycles donated to projects like Folding@home that advance scientific knowledge, and not being flushed down the toilet of crypto mining.

Well, not until we put it there...
You know you can just turn them off, right?
That's a terrible way to think of it.

So HTTPS is a new thing now?
Seriously, 2000, you can stop now.
Quick, somebody measure it!
dnf install java
apt-get install java
The problem only really exists for those locked into less sophisticated, usually proprietary, operating systems where such conveniences don't exist.
This is correct.

Also I'm pretty sure the Sun, which is considerably cooler than this, is producing more power than it absorbs.
We are not most people.
MS-DOS 2.1 -> 5 -> 6-> Win 3.1 -> Win 95 -> OS/2 Warp -> Win 98 -> Red Hat -> Debian+Ubuntu+Mint -> Fedora
With significant overlaps (eg now Debian and Fedora happily co-existing).
Then I have some bad news for you.
Your country has signed and ratified the TPPA (or "CPTPP" as it is now called).
The "general economic interest" is no longer be a priority for your country - only the economic interest of the controlling corporations.
^^
I nominate this comment of the week.
Fine, just don't call it DST then.

So you're heating your house with an electric heat engine with a CoP of... 1.0?
You can do better.
Yes, it was wasted.

Now there's two principles-to-live-by in the same room:
1. Don't do business with Oracle.
2. Don't do business with China.

Well, that and the sharp spike in heart attacks and traffic accidents positively correlated with DST shifts.
Wait, you water down your coffee? Fine, but don't call it coffee.
Chew the beans like a man.
I feel a Jon Maddog Hall quote coming on:
I was using Free Open Source Software in 1969, but we did not call it that at the time. We called it "software".
Chanting "made in the USA" is pure Trumpism.
[citation needed]
I think by now you will realize that you have gone too far, so I will refrain from calling you a complete imbecile.
And WTF does making stuff in the USA have to do with indigenous cultures?
Please, take your meds and report back when you're ready.
Correct on both counts.

Yay, he's kicking out a layer of useless managers who were holding up actual work getting done.
Boo, he's gone and installed new ones.
