This is the second year we've had DST, and Microsoft don't quite seem capable of catching on :|

I'd like to kick Bill in the nuts, all my meetings have been messed up, and if I want my computer to display the correct time I've got to use the 'Singapore' timezone, which I can't even do at work because we can't change the time or date :|

It can't be that complicated

 

[Whoozyerdaddy]

Could be worse... AnandTech forums thinks Hawaii observes DST. Everything here has been an hour off since the spring. Thankfully it will correct itself in a couple weeks.

Just set your timezone to GMT. Avoids all confusion.

Thanks, you reminded me I have to disable JS window resizing. (Haven't done it since I started using this computer)

Get with the times, Swatch.. :thumbsdown:

^^Hahaha. Most ironic sentence ever.

There's patches for both XP and Exchange that should have been applied months ago.

We have an "atomic" synchronizing clock in my living room that rolled back an hour this morning - very odd.

If you can't patch or manually specify DST dates, you're hosed.

 

[Epic Fail]

any multi million damage from the mistake yet?

 

[mobobuff]

My computer time was behind by one hour today, I tried updating with a different timeserver, but it didn't seem to work. *shrug* Had to do it manually. I don't know when the deviation happened.

Edit: Nevermind. I'm a 'tard who lives under a rock.

ditto as well. We also have two "smart" clocks... the dates are hard coded into it, so I gotta change it four times a year. The radio clock didn't work for us in the spring either, but I chalked that up to first time issues. Now.. it's just silly.

Sounds like the clocks are as smart as your avg ATOT'er.

Exactly. If you had been getting updates like you should, then you wouldn't be having this problem. Why blame yourself when is so much easier to blame others?

My SmartSet pissed me the fuck off this morning. I didn't wake up until 10 because it rolled back an hour this morning. I needed to get some stuff done this morning.
