In dmy format, we have 22-02-2022, which is a palindrome.
In dmy hms format, we have 22-02-2022 02:20:22 and 22-02-22 22:20:22, which are also palindromes.
In ymd hms format, we have 2022-02-22 20:22:02, which is a palindrome.
In mdy hms format, we have 02-20-2022 02:02:20 and 02-20-22 22:02:20, which are palindromes.
(There are also other palindromes, but they use digits not found in the year 2022)

We plan to have an online memorial. Zoom would restrict us to 40 minutes with 100 people. I think the 100 people is OK, but we need more time. Any suggestions?
|
|
|
|
|

I think free version is limited to 100 persons and 60 minutes for a single meeting.
Would it be possible to divide the memorial to multiple meetings, each 60 minutes?

I try to avoid "large meetings" as I follow the old adage "The IQ of any committee is the IQ of the dumbest person in the room divided by the number of attendees".

Don't we all? (need more time)
Before Zoom, there was Skype, or Team. There still are. Perhaps they can help?

The United States military uses the format: DD-MM-YYYY which is the same, more or less as the default for E.U., minus the difference of dots and hyphens.
Why can't the ENTIRE WORLD use the same format.

Pretty much, it does - though Japan is ISO yyyy-mm-dd which is even more sensible as it sorts correctly.

I'm a "left ponder", and I use "YYYY.MM.DD" for the very reason you cited - it sorts correctly.

Sweden also uses the ISO format.
Except where mandated differently by EU regulations (mainly expiration dates).

I didn't know that - thank you for educating me!

It's been Swedish standard since 1972.
For the reason of sorting, all documents were stored in a sortable format.
But computers in those times really weren't fast, so instead of formatting documents when printed they decided to change the standard.
And so adopted ISO 2014 before it became an ISO standard.
(It was suggested 1971 and adopted 1976)

All ads are dumbing down: I play a couple of Android games on my phone and all it seems to give me at the moment are Timex watch ads which are really stupid.
Since Timex watches were always knows for their incredible accuracy (if only in determining when the warrantee had expired rather than as far as the time of day was concerned) I'm still surprised the company exists at all, but not so surprised that their adverts look like 1960s magazine ads photocopied onto a computer ...

I'm sure it tells you more about the aiming group.
