It is Currently ...

Post by ChrisGreaves »

It Is Currently.png
I know my reputation for being a few years behind everyone else but one and a half hours ahead of Toronto and New York, but this has me stumped.
According to my laptop and my smart phone, the time is 5:34PM on Thursday June 4th as I type.
Yet the New Posts page (my Firefox Home bookmark: https://eileenslounge.com/search.php?se ... 1086208904) says 15:02.

OK. Suppose it was 5:32PM when I took the snapshot, allow ten seconds for reflection before starting this post.
15:02 sounds more like Chicago to me.

¿Que Pasa? Por favor.

Or perhaps a more appropriate phrasing: "Wassup Dude?"

Cheers
Chris

Thank you, Hans.
But am I correct in supposing that the default time zone for new users is (Chicago) Central time?
Cheers

The default is UTC. I assume that you set the time zone when you registered at Eileen's Lounge in 2010.
Best wishes,

Thanks Hans.
I am fairly sure that for seven years i set all sorts of time zones to EST, and that 15 months ago I tried to set all sorts of time zones to EST+1.5 also known as "Newfoundland time".
Most likely I did not set up on the new software here a month ago.
All fixed now.
