Daylight savings time bug with forum timestamps

Migrated topic.

I've noticed that since we switched to daylight savings time here recently, the timestamps are off by 1 hour for people living in the US. For instance, I am in US eastern standard time and the time here is currently 3:06pm, which is UTC-4:00. However, the forum reports it as UTC-5:00, or 2:06pm. For part of the year we are UTC-4:00, and for the other part we are UTC-5:00.

I think this has to do with different countries handling daylight savings time differently (this was unknown to me until recently). I realize this might be a bit tricky to fix in general because there's a lot of variation with how countries handle time.

Nexus is now three (3) days ahead into the future. :shock: Today we could not access the forum, only after setting the date on our computer into the future did it work...:)


Anyway, the weather lady on the tele still says: september 01. :surprised
