TAM reinstall after time change?

It appears that v10.8 reinstalls this morning. Am I correct in assuming that is caused by the savings of daylight we experienced yesterday?

It reinstalls? Like, ASUPDATE runs when you launch TAM?

Tamclient reregistered for me this morning on my station as well. Version 11.1.

Affirmative.

Maybe this is by design then?

Tam V.11 did same this morning.

Ours reran tamclient.exe also. TAM has done this after time changes for us for as long as I can remember.

Well that answers why it ran yesterday. Now that you all mention it, i recall it from the past.

Mine too. On version 10.7 here.

what is this time change thing you speak of

@*&@^&%#!!~#&^$!#$&!%

It is so STUPID to have to change 2x a year.

I don't know what came over your politicians to make them ditch this garbage, but kudos to them!

Scientist have shown that it actually saves nothing in our current age. This dates to the agricultural society of years gone by. Therefore, it only costs. Where ore the progressives when you need them?

Guess Alice is like Hawaii - no daylight savings time changes. Ours is due to the fact we are so close to the equator. Arizona - just to be different?

actually tried to look that up this morning. Almost everything I found said AZ doesn't because it's too confusing.

As long as I've known AZ and I grew up there, never did.. I wish California would do same!! DST is lame and I think costs more forcing all those phone, appliances, legacy devices and more having to be updated. Then the impacts to software investment to fix. Remember long while back TAM had issues with DST and time stamping.

Just lose it! Can't say kids anymore. Kids don't walk to school anymore. Every parent has to drive them as they don't feel safe. Farmers, tractors have headlights these days. What else?
