Nitpick and reminder: in UNIX and cousins, the "machine" has no timezone. It's the executable (and its children, if they don't change it). See: tomas@trotzki:~$ date Wed Dec 20 08:24:32 CET 2023 tomas@trotzki:~$ TZ=Asia/Singapore bash tomas@trotzki:~$ date Wed Dec 20 15:24:47 +08 2023 tomas@trotzki:~$ exit What is /etc/timezone for, then? you may ask. It's just the default for when you don't pick any. As to gmail... I rather not think about that (still aching from my cognitive dissonance to see someone so much trying to protect himself from intrusion to entrust his communication to the biggest vacuum cleaner for personal data and human behaviour of known history, but I disgress).
