   8 AM in your local time zone is not the same time in UTC every day.  =
The actual time depends on the relationship between localtime and UTC.  =
That relationship changed.

  I must not be understanding you, if I schedule an event for 8am every =

  This is how it's always worked in the past, time change happens but =

  I didn't ask you to name them all, I asked for one.
