(In reply to Eike Rathke from comment #19)

Comment 18 shows just how incompetent Albrecht Müller is, all that wall of text
being incorrect attempt to standardize on 1/10 of a second precision. And all
the distraction he caused in his endless comments resulted in that, being a
poor variation of the approach I suggested elsewhere to standardize on
millisecond precision for displaying times, i.e. round times to nearest
millisecond (as opposed to durations shown rounded to last shown digit),
allowing to get incorrect s/m/h/d/m/y on that boundary, and accepting it as the
trade-off. With that aggressive graphomany poured to others in multiple
time-related issues, he only consistently makes fixing everything harder by
hiding the essense (e.g., what needs documenting here) and scaring people away.
I suggest hiding his comments using spam tag.
