I meant to say "set my TZ to a city with a UTC/+- based on what time...".  And I knew
where I was going to end up so I was prepared before leaving.

Anyway, these days I don't bother changing my laptop's time settings.  I just leave
it on Taiwan time.  I rely on my mobile phone for the correct local time which gets
set by the network provider.

Hope the F25 rpm works for you.
