Yeah that’ll make some of you angry. Never mind.

For reasons beyond my comprehension my Chromebook’s clock was wrong. I think it’s related to the battery going completely flat. And that it’s running Arch Linux now, not ChromeOS. We’re completely beyond normal operating parameters here. Randomly the machine decides wifi won’t work.

Having the wrong time on your computer results in many things breaking. Like the ability to browse the web. We don’t need AWS and Cloudflare problems to make the web break, just set your clock wrong…

And yeah, I did what anyone else would do. Went off to Google and asked it for some help.

But… trying to view that website gives me the error from above. So the instructions I want to read that will help me set the time properly are stuck behind a website that won’t show me them, because my computer’s clock is wrong.

No, I’m not just going to manually set the time, I want to do it properly.

Well OK then, I guess that’s helpful. It even works.
