golinux | aitor left a note on #devuan about some changes with apt due to dependency on libudev.so.1 | 00:14 |

golinux | so please check it out. | 00:14 |
yeti | \o/ häppy midwinter \o/ | 07:32 |
onefang | Happy beginning of summer! B-) | 07:33 |
yeti | bs | 07:33 |
onefang | Thermometer next to me says 34 C. This ain't midwinter here. | 07:35 |
golinux | Same to you yeti! | 07:35 |
golinux | Let there be light! | 07:36 |
yeti | \o/ | 07:37 |
yeti | ok... """Currently, the Earth reaches perihelion in early January, approximately 14 days after the December solstice.""" ...that is north/sout invariant but a different date | 07:39 |
yeti | 1st derivate of day length = 0 | 07:40 |
yeti | would fit N/S invariant for today | 07:40 |
yeti | but who would understanbd that? | 07:40 |
onefang | So today is the December solstice, correct. It certainly isn't "midwinter" everywhere though. | 07:40 |
yeti | solstice + monthname ... ok... | 07:41 |
yeti | f' = 0 fits summer too... on both halves | 07:42 |
mason | Yule, today. | 16:45 |
golinux | No . . . solstice today | 17:14 |
mason | That too. | 17:26 |
golinux | I'd go with the one that can be scientifically proven | 17:34 |
mason | Anthropology is a science too. | 17:44 |
fsmithred | the ancients had enough astronomy to have their holidays on the solstice | 17:59 |
golinux | fsmithred: Indeed. | 18:15 |
fsmithred | it's already warming up here. 36F. Spring is right around the corner. | 18:29 |
bgstack15 | Hm, I read somewhere that the Roman calendar got filled up with holidays so that by the end of the empire, there were more holidays than regular days. | 19:26 |
golinux | If that is a sign of decline and decay, US is well on its way. Holidays are just annoying. Just let days be days and foget the hype. | 19:32 |
JackFrost | LeePen: Thanks for the Debian elogind upload. | 23:19 |
