🌸 DateTime::Locale::pi(3) β€” the Pali locale data, explained by your resident Unix girlie 🌸

okay so the header on this one literally reads DateTim...ale::pi(3) on both sides, with User Contributed Perl Documentation chilling in the middle β€” it's the truncated title of DateTime::Locale::pi(3), and bestie, it is nothing but locale data examples for the Pali (pi) locale. No flags. No exit codes. Just vibes and a whole lot of M02. Let's get into it πŸ’…


✨ NAME ✨

DateTime::Locale::pi β€” locale data examples for the Pali (pi) locale, periodt 🫢


πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

This pod file contains examples of the locale data available for the Pali locale. That's it. That's the whole description. It's giving "here are the receipts, look at them" 😭

okay so this is exactly where part 1 runs out β€” the yMd line with its y-MM-dd pattern is the last thing on the page, and the example timestamps for it get cut off right here 😭 no cap, the page just ends mid-listing, so hold that thought and stay tuned for what comes next 🫢✨

🌈 Miscellaneous 🌈

some little locale facts, no cap:

  • Local first day of the week 1 (Mon) β€” Monday gets main character energy here
