Pretty much my strategy ... although ... adjusting the car clock once saved me a ticket for speeding.

I had an oven that needed the simultaneous press of three buttons to change the time. Afterwards you had a single rotating knob that was ...well... correlated with time changes (but certainly not linear).

I seem to recall that Windows 95 would automatically reset the clock for daylight savings time. If you left your computer on overnight it did it at 2am, resetting to 1am. Guess what happened an hour later.

Nothing special?
I don't find any mention of a problem with DST for Windows 95 - apart from being stuck at the rules of 1995.

Windows 95 (and 98, I think) prompted you to confirm the time change. From what I recall, it didn't consider the switch made until the confirmation box had been dismissed, which obviously didn't always happen if the system was on at 2am.

I recall discussing this with friends at the time, but I can't find any reference online either. Maybe it was an urban myth.

In here socks are like tree rings, allowing you to tell how old someone is. Older people wear them above the knees...

I am still using win98 and it's the other way around. First it makes the change and then it asks you if it's correct. You have to confirm the change or change the time manually to whichever time you like, or the OS won't boot.

How many hands does it take to change a light bulb?

Many.

Spoiler: Why?

Many hands make light work.

Why do engineers prefer squares over circles? Because they are not rounded.
