FALSE; you need to learn more about Unix and strictly Unix-like GNU/Linux, the
only such one being Slackware, listed above.  Strictly Unix[-like] like
Slackware GNU/Linux, FreeBSD Unix, etc., have /etc/localtime, not timedatectl,
because that's part of the Apple-/Windows-like systemd which of course isn't
Unix-like.  The time zone I am using is US/Pacific (UTC-8/PST currently,
otherwise UTC-7/PDT) and my clock is correct.  However, as reported in another
bug, KDE apparently no longer always (maybe sometimes) reads /etc/localtime and
has set my time zone to UTC (unchangeable) despite showing the time for UTC-8. 
That happened about after US/Pacific switch from standard (PST) to daylight
saving (PDT) time... before that KDE either used /etc/localtime or accepted
input of US/Pacific or the main city used for it in my time zone, which was set
fine since last year.

I wanted to use a normal KOrganizer calendar but it seems that option has been
removed.  I am also using a Google calendar, but at least on
calendar.google.com times work right!  If I set something there and reload
KOrganizer the time is correct.

Even if I wanted to set an event just four hours ahead, with this bug, it
wouldn't set the event because would revise the time I entered to four hours
before, as if it already happened.  So it's not always just what time zone KDE
is using (without permission) but that times the user enters get modified
(without permission)
