19.3 Configure DST Settings
DST (daylight saving time) refers to the period of the year when clocks are moved one period
ahead. In some areas worldwide, this has the effect of creating more sunlit hours in the evening
during months when the weather is the warmest.
We advance our clocks ahead a certain period (depends on the DST bias you set) at the beginning
of DST, and move them back the same period when we return to standard time (ST).
