The time is showing incorrectly, maybe I need to switch something? Perhaps DST didn't kick in?

Anyway just a heads up for ya.

This is what it says on my screen

All times are GMT -4. The time now is 02:09 AM.



It should say 1:09 am

Daylight Savings Time is one of the dumbest things ever conceived.

I actually wish time zones would be done away with!

I don't have a problem remembering it. I just think it's fucking stupid.

I also think time zones are stupid. We have employees in the US in three time zones and more in Russia and Ukraine. Then add in clients in another 6-8 time zones, and it is a pain in the fucking ass trying to get everyone on the same page.

Why can't 08:00 be the same moment everywhere. Is it that important that everyone work 9-5? and sleep from 22:00 to 06:00?

Makes no freaking sense.

i totally agree it`s a pain in the ass,dog....i think because it`s dark in certain parts of the world when it`s daylight here.....and dst was partially instituted as a device to save resources in wartime and to adjust to modes of modern transportation........i guess they try and adjust times to correspond to sun and lunar cycles...latitude and longitude and all kinds of involved shit that has to do with the way the earth turns on it`s axis..

basically,what i`m saying is ,it`s so involved,that i don`t have a f-cking clue and i wasted everyone`s time here.....:lol:
