The trend in idiot software, which certainly includes Microsoft
Winblows, is to report the date and time as an elapsed interval
using common words rather than just showing the numerical date/time.
Example:
On my GNU/Linux machine, the "Date" column in Pan shows "Fri 3:10 PM"
as the time that the post was made.
But if we look at the web archive "
https://comp.os.linux.advocacy.narkive.com/"
we will see "4 days ago" or "about an hour ago" or "last week."
What the friggin' fuck?
This is now the trend in all software that is made for idiots.
Most of the software on Microslop Winblows does exactly this.
Give me a fucking break, assholes. I want to see the actual numerical
date and time. My fucking brain can work out the interval.
Fortunately, GNU/Linux software is made for technically sophisticated
users and only the numerical date/time is reported. (I am not sure
about that GNOME or KDE crap because I don't use either.)
Show the fucking date and time! Idiots!
