Alright, who wants to play truth or dare? Dare? Thought so. Alright, I dare you to set your computer's time zone to Tehran and get on the internet. If you can. By which I mean you need Windows XP, as far as I know.

Ummm...posting this from Windows XP, timezone set to Tehran, where it is currently 3:33am.

Fail.

And really, even if setting timezone to Tehran made the internet not work, how is that "racist"? There are places with Persians and Arabs that aren't Tehran, and not everyone following Tehran time would be Persian and/or Arab. So were such a hypothetical situation to actually arise, how would it be considered "racist"?

Uhh, so are you implying no windows computer in iran can get online? I'm pretty sure microsoft wouldn't add something that intentionally locks out millions of their paying customers... Especially since, you know, parts of russia, khazakstan, saudi arabia, etc, all share the same time zone.

Why would you be classified as racist if you hate everyone though? I would just call it a hater lol.

Anyway seems to be a pretty pointless thread.... :\
Maybe he really had a problem when setting his time zone to (whatever it is...) though, dunno..
