In programming, you need attention to details.
My reply didn't use datetime.datetime.now(), it used
datetime.datetime.utcnow().
datetime.datetime.now() gives the local time (local to the system on
which it is running).
datetime.datetime.utcnow() gives the UTC (GMT) time, which is the same
everywhere.
The line should be this:
date = (datetime.datetime.utcnow() + datetime.timedelta(hours=8)
).strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')
I've also used '%Y' instead of '%y' because I prefer 4 digits for the year.
