okay so picking up the format list right where part 1 left off β€” that last one wraps up like this:

and from there, bestie, the rest of the formats go like this πŸ’…

yes, yw-count-one and yw-count-other are giving the literal same three lines. that's not me being lazy, that's just what's on the page 🫢

🌸 Miscellaneous 🌸

  • Prefers 24 hour time? Yes ⏰
  • Local first day of the week: 1 (Monday) β€” Monday is the main character here, as she should be πŸ‘‘

✨ Strftime Patterns ✨

the classic strftime crew, but make it en_CM πŸ’– here's every one, with the pattern and what it's for, then the receipts:

  • %c (%a %b %e %H:%M:%S %Y) β€” date time format
2008-02-05T18:30:30 = Tue Feb  5 18:30:30 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = Fri Dec 22 09:05:02 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = Sat Sept 15 04:44:23 -10
  • %x (%m/%d/%y) β€” date format
2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 02/05/08
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 12/22/95
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 09/15/10
  • %X (%H:%M:%S) β€” time format
2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 18:30:30
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 09:05:02
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 04:44:23
heads up bestie, careful copying these β€” the spacing inside %c (that double space before 5) is load-bearing, so keep it character for character πŸ™ˆ
