πŸ”₯ SEE ALSO πŸ”₯

okay so this is the part where the manpage goes full group-chat-invite and tags literally everyone 😭 and we are NOT skipping a single one, because that would be rude:

and where does she live?? in the kernel file ./kernel/time/time.c 🧚 that's her address, that's her whole zip code, iykyk.


ngl the whole time-conversion family is lowkey huge and they all reference each other β€” so if you're here for one of them, you're probably here for like six of them. that's just the vibe check. πŸ’œ

kisses bestie, this page came to you from ./kernel/time, dated October 2026, under the Kernel API Manual β€” go convert something iconic today πŸ“πŸŒˆπŸ’€
