Time failure

I did show up at uni once at 6am...I did wonder why no one else in the house was up then realised some frakker messed with all my clocks when I was at work
 
I almost did this a few weeks back. Was working in a car that had the clock an hour slow, so I was going by that, said 4:00, so I started packing up my test equipment, then when I got back to my desk, looked at the clock, it was saying about 3:10, Obviously I was disappointed :p
 
One of my dad's friends runs a paint shop and he was once in the room spraying. I was in there chatting to him. After our conversation and as I was leaving, I noticed that the clock in the room had no cover... so I wound it back a bit.

He was several hours late home that night.

He got me back by cling-filming me to a chair and locking me in a dark workshop. After some time the doors were flung open and a car wheelspan towards me.

Lesson: don't mess with a man's time.

I felt this was a relevant story :p

Actually there was time years ago when I was still in my school uniform at around 19.30hrs in the kitchen eating a bowl of cereal, mum do some something in the kitchen, anyways my sister comes down from upstairs after falling asleep and looks at the analog clock on the wall, me eating cereal and goes and gets ready for school, let her get all the way down the road before telling her.

There's two words spelt the same sound different one is "learn-ed" the other is learned as in "Well that was successful!:rolleyes: What have you learned?"
 
It's probably because you use the $500 denon ethernet cable which is too fast, so windows time sync propagates too quickly, faster than the speed of light.
