"Another day another problem": computer clock back to BIOS factory settings Your Computer Clock is Wrong: Your computer thinks it is 8/7/2022, which prevents Firefox from connecting securely. To visit www.google.com, update your computer clock in your system settings to the current date, time, and time zone, and then refresh www.google.com. www.google.com has a security policy called HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), which means that Firefox can only connect to it securely. You can’t add an exception to visit this site. ~ In case someone runs into the same problem, for some reason I can't quite understand "sudo hwclock --set" wasn't working. Someone helped me: https://manpages.debian.org/stretch/util-linux/hwclock.8.en.html https://wiki.debian.org/DateTime and "date" worked! Which I has always taken to be a wrapper command to hwclock! $ date Sun 07 Aug 2022 01:35:45 PM UTC $ sudo date --set "2023-05-16 11:13:00 AM" Tue 16 May 2023 11:13:00 AM UTC $ sudo hwclock --get 2022-05-11 02:02:36.883165+00:00 $ sudo hwclock --systohc $ sudo hwclock --get 2023-05-16 11:15:22.564093+00:00 "Amazing!" lbrtchx
