I don't think that's the case anymore.

I just checked, the time in the UEFI BIOS is in UTC, yet both Linux and Windows 10 display the local time correctly as an offset to UTC. I didn't have to do anything special for that.

Edit:

So I looked a bit deeper into it, and this is apparently controlled by a registry key called RealTimeIsUniversal in [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation]. You can paste the text below in a .reg file and then import it to set the parameter:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation]
"RealTimeIsUniversal"=dword:00000001

I confirmed that this setting exists on my system, but I have no memory of ever manually setting this parameter. It's documented in the Arch wiki though, so it's possible that I did set it and forgot about it.

In any case, if you do a fresh Windows install and your time differs between Linux and Windows , this is what you should check.

Master implies hierarchy, all the other branches are derivatives of it. Main/secondary doesn't have that.

You can sort of compare it to the master recording in audio, or a master key that can open several locks.

Says the one who obviously has a stick up his ass about white people, and uses terms like "White People trash".

Best not get too hung up on timetables, or think about it in terms of the current battlefield situation or the counteroffensive. This is a long term project to transform Ukraine's Air Force into the future, where they're using Western equipment.

We may see the first F-16s next year, but this transformation will take many years.

Should probably also mention that his wife, Telsa Gwynne, was diagnosed with cancer around the time he retired and she sadly passed away in 2015.

What's a good usecase for TPM in Linux?

Perhaps. It's a legal grey area here, not strictly legal but tolerated in certain areas (red light districts), but it's certainly not a socially acceptable thing.

It’s just really hard to believe a women asks if you’ve had sex with a sex worker…

I've been asked that question, and not just one time, so I believe OP that it can sometimes come up.
