Daylight Saving Failures: World Over?

With Daylight Saving time moved up a few weeks, there were rumors of a Y2Kx2-like end of the world scenario. I woke up this morning (forgetting that I got started an hour late), and while it seems like everything in the world is normal at first glance, I’m fairly certain that we are all suffering from post-blast radiation hallucination and will soon return to the abnormal reality where our lips are falling off our faces and talking to us from the floor.

Regardless, one of my most trusty timepieces failed me this morning—my cellphone. I would usually trust my Sprint/Samsung A900 over even the atomic clock, but unless my phone was in some sort of timeline stasis (which is possible), it failed me and required a reboot.

Anyone else’s gadgets fail to update or go wonky? Anyone else suspect that the aliens are laughing heartily?
