Think of all the Russian jobs spreading misinformation on Tik Tok that will be lost!

Better question: Will the world rejoice in having a social media network without Americans?

We could keep the 0 hour as the "middle" of the night and 12 being the "middle" of the day (though I'm not sure if that's really the sun's high spot for the day for any places).

But with fully controlled mirrors, we could make it exactly 12 hours, so we could just then switch to the 0 hour being when the sun comes up.

It's pretty simple, actually. A village somewhere in Europe that is completely in the shade all day for part of the year has already proven it.

Mirrors.

We just need a ring of motorized mirrors around the Earth.

At hour 0, the mirrors will rotate to show sun all across the entire Earth.

At hour 12, the mirrors will rotate to put all of the Earth into night time.

That lets the entire Earth have the exact same synchronized time synchronized with the daylight.

The mirrors will block the sun from parts of the earth facing during the night.

The mirrors will constantly be rotating to keep the proper amount of sun light facing each part of Earth as the Earth rotates.

The mirrors will be solar powered.

This will fix it, right?

Open your computer and reseat any cables and components that you can.

Maybe even do a memory test with something like MemTest86(?).

Random electric noise and disconnects could cause random corruption issues like this.

Does your current laptop have a dedicated graphics card?

Can you try a USB to HDMI adapter? I don't recall how they work with a dedicated card. Haven't used one since Intel i7 gen 2 days, so my reference points are no longer relevant.

The new game will be to see how fast you can get OpenAI to compare something to Hitler.

So many answers will be a poop knife or put a sock on it.
