Maybe we have the right time and the time at the NTP service you're looking
at is wrong, eh?

All joking aside, there are no guarantees with regards to the amount of
clock skew the servers may have, though I've never seen it 5 minutes off my
personal laptop. Then again, for all I know, we might be all syncing against
the same time server.

This whole discussion reminds me of a quote from former president Bill
Clinton where he questions what the definition of "is" is.
