Or simply change LC_TIME locale to a 24h-locale using the tool mx-locale. Thats it.

All I see is to change the language in mx-locale.

You don't see the "language", what you see is a selection screen of locale categories.
and LC_TIME defines the locale "default" representation for time. Just select and 24h LC_TIME.
Sure the screen is missing to display examples.
The only English locale category, I'm aware of, which offers a default 24h time representation
and supported on Debian system would be English locale for Ireland, which has the code en_IE.UTF-8.

Actually there are some more, checking most English locale availabe in Debian:
and listing the default short and long date-time represantation:

The closest time representation which looks like en_US.UTF-8 but with 24H would actual be C.UTF-8.
en_IE.UTF-8 : English locale for Ireland would be also OK, but differs in short date representation dd/mm/yy instead of mm/dd/yy,
in case that matters.

dd/mm/yy is my preferred way (just a yank who watches too much British shows) as I have become accustomed to that method.

My bash config prompt is set to Date which shows the following.

en_US.UTF-8

en_GB.UTF-8

locale-GB.jpg

en_IE.UTF-8

locale-IE.jpg

Seems en_IE.UTF-8 is my best choice.

[fehlix]

Seems en_IE.UTF-8 is my best choice.

You may have noticed the default conky would now show 24h, after selecting a 24H LC_TIME category and logout/login.

Let me try that now. I'm having issues with the forum which I will make a separate post about.

*Update: Yes, I'm not seeing the am/pm section. I'll check again in the afternoon when I switch to 24 hour display.

You have to wonder if the positive review led to some other distro's fanbois launching the DDOS attack on the forum.

[Eadwine Rose]

Would not surprise me.

More likely it was one of the folks who got his / her shorts in a knot because we wouldn't let the forum to be used to air political views.

Sorry I didn't get a chance to hate their political choice even more...

Or maybe it was the Brazilian who was threatening us to take us to court. I would be so sorry to lose the $0 that our Brazilian "customers" pay us...

[Bamber]

I read the review, it's quite the thumbs up.
