Some places are turning their clocks back an hour tonight. Do folks turn it back in time to stay up later or fix it in the morning when they remember?

At my age falling is not an option. I take a nap instead.

I sleep when it happens. My computers, phones and one RF controlled clock take care of it themselves. Other clocks can take a week or so before they are turned back. When not working a 9to5 job, that one hour time difference is just a grain of sand in the desert.

i have no clock since a while , and just use my computer or smartphone, which are updating by themselves.

Brace yourself when I post here that I was hacked, I am providing a number of time servers to ntp.org, including a Stratum 1 reference clock :)

This year I changed all my manual clocks before I went to bed on Saturday, so I wouldn't be confused on Sunday when different things showed different times. Some devices, such as aquarium timers, don't need changing because I just leave them on standard time (“real time”) year round.
otoh I didn't turn over the calendars ahead of time. Yes, I have real physical dead-tree calendars on the wall. (I also have a calculator, conveniently right next to the computer.)

With the COVID-19 shut-down, suspension, restriction, curtailing of so much outside-the-home activity, the clocks in our two vehicles will be spot on come March 14, 2021.
