Local time on the site instead of Moscow
Good day to all. I have a sentence that, if embodied, will make life a little easier for those who read / write here, being far from Moscow.
The point is this. As you know, the relevance of the article or comment is very important on Habré. Often, whether or not to write a comment on an article or a response to another comment depends on how long this article / comment was written.
And now, in fact, the essence. I do not know what time is displayed under the article or comment. I guess that Moscow. Now, to assess the relevance, I need to focus and transfer time from local to Moscow and back. Considering that I live in (UTC-05: 00), and transitions to winter / summer time take place at different times, remembering the time difference all the time is not a trivial task.
And I assume that there are many such users. According to statistics, about 40% percent of users are not from St. Petersburg or Moscow, therefore, in a different belt. Maybe someone has already mastered the translation in the mind of the clock, but still it is not very convenient.
')
So, the offer itself is very short - let the site display local time taking into account the time zone placed on the machine? M? Oh please!
UPD.: I suspect that Muscovites, for whom there is no life outside the Moscow Ring Road, are now hard at work, but I still hope that everyone else will support me.
