Forums time is off...

This doesn't really matter much, but it makes me feel i missed something when it says the post time was 7 minutes and 8 second ago =O it seems to me the clock is off by 7 minutes, and this is a new fault. -.-"

Its 6 minutes out by my clock, its been like that for a while.

i just noticed it this week...that's odd...oh well, guess i can't expect to much perfection >.>

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clock_skewThis happens with a computer clock unless it's frequently updated. I guess our ntpd process (which updates it) didn't start.

Ooo. Did you know time flows differently in different parts of the world. Well techniccally in it flows different everywhere but for perspective.

Actually time is the same for everyone relatively, except when you go faster, time goes slower and vice-versa.
And of course when you go slower, time goes faster.But, everyone's minutes/seconds are the same. The hour is all that differs.

And of course when you go slower, time goes faster.[quote]Well, I think technically you travel at different speeds depending on where you are located relative to the equator of the Earth. Since every point on the Earth rotates a full revolution every 24 hours (approx.) the farther you are from the center of rotation the faster you are traveling.And also, not everyone's minutes are the same, there are a few areas that have half timezones (off by 30 minutes) and I think there are even ones split up by 15.
