When to use UTC?
Always :-)
Hehe, I'd love to eliminate local time and I particularly hate daylight
saving time.
This is irrelevant.
If I set my BIOS clock to use UTC the date command will still show me
the correct wall-clock time, including DST.
If I dualboot with Windows, Windows will change the clock when DST
changes, then time will be wrong in Linux, hence the need for the
two possibilities.

You can also tell windows to not follow DST updates.
