| The Linux/Windows timezone issue can be fixed with a registry setting [1] If for some reason your time is off (e.g. after 3 failed attempts), it's easily detectable and fixable. Just browse to time.is [2], and your time is off, and set it manually if needed. Because there's an increased dependency on accurate time, bad network time is now quite a rare occurrence in my experience. I haven't seen it happen in the last 3 years. Once you point NTP to a trustworthy service (e.g. time.google.com [3] or time.cloudflare.com [4]), you won't have any issues. The Google time server offers leap smear [5], and the Cloudflare one offers NTS (authenticated NTP). 1. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/System_time#UTC_in_Microsof... 2. https://time.is/ 3. https://developers.google.com/time 4. https://developers.cloudflare.com/time-services/nts/usage 5. https://developers.google.com/time/smear |
