We must be on special snowflake time. As you have been seeing they are in their own time space continuum .:D

Almost like the clock is Zulu, but minus 12 hrs. Example, a post done at 0009Z still reads current day and 1209 (just after Noon). Wonder when it actually syncs & switches days ; i.e., when does the server "think" it's midnight? Or perhaps the server is being directed to something remote as a time source. Things that make ya say, "hmmm."
The web site itself shoots for this...
"All times are GMT -5. The time now is 13:16."
What's with a guy worrying about that shit....I had team guys like that

Sometimes a system clock that goes inexplicably wacky is an indicator of something else.

Yes, got you on that. OCD is not fun, for anyone. Overthinking everything is crazy making.

I spent too many years in the airline biz I guess. ;) I'm retired but my watch, which I don't really need much, gets updated every night by WWV.

PatDitto retired. My old analog watch serves my Admiral-on-Board who refuses to wear one and its old Speidel from the West Berlin PX evokes some memories.
As said, have only mentioned it because it can indicate something else amiss, probably minor software tweak not recognizing user time prefs or something.
Have a nice time everyone. :D
