Time Stamps are behind 2 hours?

Time stamps of posts are behind 2 hours.

Just started today.

Changed the setting to different zones a few times, but still off 2 hours behind real time.

Is there a glitch or is it just me?

I am in Central Zone.

Maybe the MSM is up to something

Same here, I'm Central also.

Just saw a post from Boymonkey in the UK and his post time stamp reads two hours off to me.

STM

Well something is amok for sure.

Glad I'm not crazy !!!

It's not FireFox, and it's not IE either.

Both browsers have the same issue.

And my regular Windows 7 clock is OK.

Maybe a Polar Shift is happening !!

Maybe SO is playing around with the time getting ready for this:

Source: www.sciencetimes.com...

Computers and the networks they create are all very logical, and dependent on a number of unchanging standards to function. However, the universe sets its own rules and operates on a logic all its own. This year, we will have exactly one extra second of time with 31,536,001 seconds instead of the usual 31,536,000--and this presents a big problem for computers.

To compensate, the Paris Observatory has announced that it will be add an extra second to clocks on June 30. This extra second, popularly known as a leap second, isn't that big a deal to us humans but for computers this presents a huge challenge. Imagine, if you will, if every computer in the world was suddenly off by one second.

This problem is going to cause so many ramifications for computer systems worldwide that many software companies are already preparing for the issues.

How did this happen? While Atomic time is constant, the rotation of the Earth is actually slowing by 2000ths of a second every day. This slowdown means there will be an extra second in 2015. The extra second is added to the universal coordinated time (UTC) so that it matches the atomic time created a problem much like the Y2K bug that affected computers at the turn of the century.

On June 30, 2015, the clock will read 11:59:60 and this will cause issues with many computer systems which are not programmed to handle the time. As many systems are dependent on precise time, issues are expected as many systems simply aren't capable of handling that one extra second.

Or a polar shift . . .

I blame CERN!!

Yep, 2 hours off here too.

Sillies… its right now. Oh, wait…

we're slowing dowwnnn… (insert slo mo footage)

Hmmm.

Could be the Schumann resonances.

mods can move this topic to General Conspiracies now !!

Haven't noticed but I rarely look at stamps.
This is my tester

Welp, 2 hours behind as well.

Maybe all atsers have been abducted for 2 hours? Massive probing done...


2 hours here too.

a reply to: xuenchen

Its possible...Its possible.

It has been this way for me since yesterday morning (saturday).

I wonder if it has anything to do with the social media login upgrade?

That would explain A LOT!

Unfortunately

y2k again...

Seems fixed now.

Well.

Looks like the times are correct all of a sudden !!!!

The Outer Limits -- Ending

Staff noticed it too and SkepticOverlord has now fixed it. (SO is one of the site's owners and our main software writer.)

Just FTR, it had no connection to leap seconds or whatever. Was far more mundane.

At least one of my posts has been doctored too.
Not cool ATS!

a reply to: JustMike

It was CERN I tell ya!

Or maybe the Pope!

Thanks for the heads up Mike

a reply to: EA006

Please send staff a COMPLAINT, with a link to the post and info about what's actually been "doctored". We can then look into it for you.

Thanks.
