In fact, it's difficult. If you are alone and disconnected of the rest
of the world, you don't care about the time drift. But as soon as you
plug your computer on Internet, a time shift will be an issue. And if
the drift is important and you just fetch it from time to time, you will
be inaccurate timestamps and your experience will be very bad. So it has
to be done carefully.
