Tangent: I went to find UTC, and they've redesigned time.gov, it looks great on my desktop. https://time.gov/

My personal favorite time/NTP website is https://time.is/ https://time.is/UTC

time.is is pretty great! Their calendar is real handy as well, especially to see duration between two dates: https://time.is/calendar

Shit, you're right. I actually checked the date on my computer before posting. I swear it told me it was the 8th. What is happening.

Worst case: Our planet ends up with Kessler syndrome and nobody will launch a satellite for quite a while... But in the bright side, I'm fairly sure your stocks wouldn't be alone in tanking if that happened.

You can put a video on a page without js, but a lot of your customers would have a poor experience.

Apparently ≈2.24% of global users are using a browser that doesn't fully support HTML5 video: https://caniuse.com/video
