With the latest composer install today (on PHP 8.1.29), I was running the install and it asked for timezone (preset to UTC), which I left as the default, but it didn’t like that and suggested several options when I got to the last step in the install:

```auto
Database time zone… The way PHP and database handle daylight saving times differs by 1 hour and 0 minutes. These are the time zones compatible with the database one: Americas/Detroit, Americas/Grand Turk, Americas/Havana, Americas/Indianapolis, Americas/Iqaluit, Americas/Louisville, Americas/Marengo, Indiana, Americas/Monticello, Kentucky, Americas/Nassau, Americas/New York, Americas/Petersburg, Indiana, Americas/Port-au-Prince, Americas/Toronto, Americas/Vevay, Indiana, Americas/Vincennes, Indiana, and Americas/Winamac, Indiana

```

The problem is the word “Americas” is incorrect there, it should be “America”. No idea why “Indiana” is repeated all over the place either, but that’s easy to ignore.
