...for example fuel intake

small use 10 blocks
meds use 20 blocks
largs use 40 blocks

all per hour, so should we calculate daily at 24 or 23 hours?

We no longer have the hour downtime but we still lose 30 minutes.
What is the deal on this?

Because even if the game isn't up, everything (Moon mining Array's/labs, CSAA's etc.) are still running.

CCP has not changed the fabric of time to my knowledge so there is still 24 hours in a day.

POSes burn fuel once every hour at (roughly) the same minute. (E.g. 9:12, 10:12, 11:12, 12:12, ...) Fuel is also used up if that minute happens to be during a downtime (regular or otherwise). A downtime does not affect the minute when fuel is burned in any way. Therefore no matter what, in an interval of 24 real-life hours, a POS will burn 24 stacks of fuel.
