Hey, I live in the future.
For some reason, I checked my windows clock and look what it returned...

Does this happen often or is it just me.

Btw, no Mac versus Win versus Linux here, ok

It's actually January 4th, not April 1st. Not everyone reads dates in the funny American way.

I always use the NIST time servers. It's their full-time job to make sure that one is correct at all times.

Yes, I also use time.nist.gov on the desktop and it works well. My server uses the German national metrology institute. Unfortunately, I can't use my server as reference for my desktop, because stupid winblows can't unterstand the standard NTP format and uses the simple NTP format (SNTP) instead.

I knew that kind of thing was rather popular in gay circles, never figured it was done with ropes though
