🧚 Miscellaneous

Prefers 24 hour time?

Yes ⏰

Local first day of the week

1 (Mon) 🌸

monday starting the week, extremely Monday of it, no notes.

💜 Strftime Patterns

`%c` (`%a %b %e %H:%M:%S %Y`) — date time format

%c — the whole date-and-time package in one go, aka the locale's default full date+time vibe ✨

          2008-02-05T18:30:30 = Tue M02  5 18:30:30 2008
          1995-12-22T09:05:02 = Fri M12 22 09:05:02 1995
         -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = Sat M09 15 04:44:23 -10

Like, note the little M hanging out in front of the month numbers — that's literally what the locale hands back, no cap. And yeah, that Sat M09 15 04:44:23 -10 line is doing the absolute most with a negative year, but she ate 💅

%x (and its alias %m/%d/%y) — the date-only format, short and sweet 🎀

          2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 02/05/08
          1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 12/22/95
         -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 09/15/10

Month, slash, day, slash, two-digit year — classic, lowkey iconic, extremely American-coded 🙈

%X (and its alias %H:%M:%S) — the time-only format, just clock things ⏰

          2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 18:30:30
          1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 09:05:02
         -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 04:44:23

Hours, minutes, seconds, colon-separated, 24-hour. Clean, symmetric, literally the "no thoughts head empty" of formats 🫶
