Do you know the font Windows 10 uses for the default Date & Time display?
In response to what Arlen Holder wrote :
In short, the system timezone is changed randomly during the day, so I need a "real" clock that tells me the actual current time in my own time. BTW, in terms of fingerprinting & non-cloud privacy, for the Windows freeware folks, since the system clock is randomly changed by a privacy script, that's why I had to find freeware local "calendars" and "alarms" which didn't depend on the system time zone. It's not easy implementing a privacy policy against fingerprinting, where not only my newsreader strategy, but even my browser strategy is part of that privacy based anti-fingerprinting policy. o *Discussion of two different privacy-related browser philosophies* https://groups.google.com/d/msg/alt.comp.freeware/H4694--5znY/LOOCa11RBgAJ If folks have better or different privacy-based anti-fingerprinting strategies, I'm all ears. -- Usenet is a public permanent archive of useful technical discussions. |

Have you thought of this or are you scared of your privacy? *Clock*: We have a single large wall clock in the house which is synced to a time server, and which the house uses as the local time. *Watch*: Stopped wearing them years ago because they kept getting smsshed working on stuff and falling off cliffs. *CellPhone*: Broke many but I kept buying them (unlike watches) which is what I use for time when I'm out and about. *Computer(s)*: What I use when I sit at a computer. (Although the system clock tz is randomized.) *Oven, microwave, DVD player, etc. clocks*: All blinking... (too much of a PITA to deal with, particularly given we have dozens of power outages in certain years (although PG&E has been better lately).
