Daylight Savings

Likewise. For something like the tenth time.

a) How long has this been happening?

b) What is the time difference between KMC Time and your time?

It's been happening since daylight saving time started or ended or did whatever it did (but not every time I come onto KMC; it seems to happen randomly). There is no appreciable difference between the forum's time and mine (the forum says I posted this on 8:02, my clock says it's 7:59)

well, that is only a three minute difference, after all 😕 could just be your time, or the forum's, is off a bit

Thanks Gregory, you found the bug.

Bascially the check was pretty primitive and only compared the hour bits of the time to determine whether you had been affected by a time change. I've updated the code the check the minutes aswell now.

clap bravo, saved from paranoia, i am

Don't kill me there... but it still pops up 🙁

a) bout two weeks or so, long after the time change anyways
b) no change, because i always press 'cancel' and i press cancel, because there is no bloody difference and there shouldn't be.

It just popped up again for me, too. It's 6:59 by my computer clock, 7:03 by the forum clock.

Vampy - try click OK, and see if its helps. And also please post the exact times you get from KMC and your local clock so I can find the problem.

Gregory, was this when you logged on? Or afterwards?

I never bother to log out (I'm the only one who uses my computer), so I'm not sure? I have KMC in my shortcuts; I came here from my homepage, and the message appeared as soon as KMC loaded.

So if you hit refresh after getting that message, you get it again?

Also, I'm not sure why you're getting that message, because if the times you gave are right, you shouldn't. It currently ignores a 30 minutes difference, and your difference is only a few minutes.

Anyway, I added a special DEBUG popup for you only. Could you post what it shows next time you get it?

It doesn't reappear everytime I refresh, so it's more a minor curiosity than a real problem. I got the pop-up box, closed it without knowing what it was, and now I can't get it to come back. If it reappears, I'll tell you what it says.

Just popped up for me too. I clicked "OK" and it switched me to Mountain time for some reason... (I'm on Pacific time)

Which countries do (and which do not) have daylight savings time?

Or do they all have it?

But more important than that: I was just asked if I wanted to adjust for daylight saving time, and when I said yes (to make it go away) it messed up my time somehow. It's 10:02 by my computer clock, but my forum time now says that it's 9:05.

Edited: But it just asked me again, and when I said yes, it fixed that.

it asked me to change the forum time , and i clicked 'yes' and then the next time i got on it asked me again, and since i already had, i clicked cancel, it did this a couple more times throughout the day, then i realized kmc was an hour ahead of me. next time i got on, it asked me again to change the time, and i clicked yes, and it stopped asking me for a day or two, then it started asking again today, i clicked yes to fix it, and now it says again that kmc is an hour ahead of me 😬

Peeps, its no point in telling me about the problem unless you help me fix it.

Just post the time KMC is saying it is and your time on your computer.

BTW, Gregory, what was the debug message you got?

It just popped up:

DEBUG FOR GREG: 32149.489000082016

Edit: It just popped up again, with a different number: 32149.430999994278

And again: 32151.09400010109
