Workaround For When the NTP Port is Blocked

Sometimes the NTP port can be blocked (such as at Universities). This script(s) allows the raspberry pi to still have the correct time without going through the NTP port. Theoretically, this script should work anywhere in the world pending that https://time.is and https://wikidates.org are not blocked for any reason.
