Are you seriously suggesting Windows doesn't know the concept of UTC time? And secondly suggesting that fiddling with timezone offsets is an expensive conversion?
- throwaway2048 11y agothe system clock on windows is not UTC, it is local time. On Unix the clock is always UTC and is converted to local time for display purposes.
- nbevans 11y agoThat is the same as Windows. Where are you getting your information?
- feld 11y agoNo, there was a time when Windows stored local time -- also synced to BIOS clock. I don't think that's true anymore, though.
- throwaway2048 11y agoit remains true in windows 10, although it can be changed via some registry fudging.
