I have a Windows work laptop that sometimes drifts up to 10 minutes off the correct time despite time/date settings saying it has synced every day. It won't even let me correct the time because of an enterprise policy requiring it to use network time. Then one day it will be back to the correct time and the drift cycle begins anew.
- 93po 3y agoI find some humor in this being somewhat familiar with the history of clocks and watches. Forever the battle was making the most accurate time pieces possible, with wrist watches eventually reaching a few seconds per day variance before digital watches took over. And new we have something trillions of times more complicated and is performing worse
- arthur2e5 3y agoThere are ways said to circumvent the enterprise policy on the autosync side, like unregistering win32tm or deleting all servers from the registry. No idea about setting the time though… (A smarter time daemon like chrony would've kept track of the RTC drift.)
