Troubleshooting: Office 365 login loop

If your ever stuck with this issue it can be infuriating. I had the issue on a linux install on my Precision 5510 but not on my home Gentoo installation.
I tried isolating DNS, network, browsers, all to no avail. Until I stumbled on this gem. I quickly noticed my timezone was not set correctly:
harrisj@19wbpf2 /etc $ timedatectl
Local time: Fri 2019-03-29 13:26:58 UTC
Universal time: Fri 2019-03-29 13:26:58 UTC
RTC time: Fri 2019-03-29 13:26:58
Time zone: n/a (UTC, +0000)
System clock synchronized: no
NTP service: inactive
RTC in local TZ: no
After setting the timezone:
timedatectl set-timezone Australia/Brisbane
The datetime was now wrong, which was quickly corrected:
timedatectl set-time "2019-03-29 13:31:45"
Restarted my browser and teams and now I'm a happy chappy!
