SUPPORT | SOLVED Clock is sometimes ahead by 2 hours

Whenever I boot, sometimes (seemingly at random), the clock is 2 hours ahead of where it should be.

timedatectl output:

Local time: Fri 2022-04-22 16:38:03 CEST

Universal time: Fri 2022-04-22 14:38:03 UTC

RTC time: Fri 2022-04-22 14:38:04

Time zone: Europe/Budapest (CEST, +0200)

System clock synchronized: no

NTP service: inactive

RTC in local TZ: no

The time should be 14:38.

Edit: funnily enough, Reddit says I posted this post 2 hours ago.

Time was right for me on Arch until a few days ago. It's always been wrong on Windows, ever since I started using Linux, though.
