Hey John! The Clock's Off Again!
Now | Me

Posted on 06/12/2011 3:45:40 PM PDT by Cyber Liberty

Hey Mr. Robinson! The FR clock is off by about 15 minutes again! If you have a moment, could you swing by and push the hands back again?

Thank you....

That is all. Probably more than I should say.

It’s like the delay in talk radio, it allows us to remove posts before they’re visible.

I have learned to live with it!

The ntpd daemon would likely solve this since it periodically re-calibrates the operating system clock against a user-definable list of time servers as shown here:
     remote           refid      st t when poll reach   delay   offset  jitter
==============================================================================
+128.194.254.9   204.123.2.5      2 u  701 1024  377   26.137    0.453   3.484
*129.6.15.28     .ACTS.           1 u  368 1024  377   60.020    3.547   0.345

I have chosen to reset all my clocks to FR Standard time. (FRST) The world would be a better place if we all did.

Yeah, it’s been feeling rather “Dali-like” around here lately. Must be in the middle of the night where you are?

Where I was. ;-)

I came home last month.

I hope to be home for a good while this time.

I started gaining a few days after it was reset the last time.

John needs to do a Google search. There’s an app for that!
