gollark: THINK OF THE PROGRAMMERS who have to deal with random clock jumps and stuff (although sane applications will use UTC internally, I think Windows actually is stupid and sets the clock to *local time*, thus problems).
gollark: Yes, how very useful, I will save so much time?
gollark: THINK OF THE DATETIME LIBRARY PROGRAMMERS, SolarFlame5.
gollark: MEDDLING WITH THE VERY FABRIC OF TIME ITSELF is not an appropriate way to give people more time at some times.
gollark: Not really!
