You must doing something really life-threatening surgeries on your
computer to be so stupid to be accurate within a nano-second!!!! One
minute here or one minute there doesn't make any difference in my line
of business and I still charge my clients by units of 15 minutes a time.

The correct time is essential for the operations of the internet, as
time is part of the internet connect protocol as I understand. When
the time on the computer becomes different from the time on the ISP,
errors will be created. (From experience I do know that when the ISP
and Computer time are different you have internet problems.)

Therefore you must use a reliable and accurate time server like
time.nist.gov

I am retired and for my personal schedule the time in months is
sufficient to keep me on schedule. ;-)
