Quoth Dreamstalker View PostMost of our products use the European date format D/M/Y. Just to make things interesting, some Italian companies will use the American format without indicating so, and certain products will get an additional English-language label so you have both formatsLast edited by EricKei; 07-02-2019, 08:00 PM."For a musician, the SNES sound engine is like using Crayola Crayons.

Quoth EricKei View PostThis sort of thing is why -- even when corresponding strictly with 'Murricans, I try to write out dates in the ## month ### format (e.g. 26 July 2019)PWNADE(TM) - Serve up a glass today! | PWNZER - An act of pwnage so awesome, it's like the victim got hit by a tank.

I got into it when I was working on DEC (computer) equipment. PDP11, VAX, and so on. Their standard way of handling dates was a three-letter version of the month in the middle of the date. 04-JUL-76 was the US bicentennial, for instance. Yes, that was back when Y2K was "someone else's problem", though that someone else eventually was me as well.“There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged.
One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world.
The other, of course, involves orcs." -- John Rogers

I swear that's how D2 is reading dates. She still can't grasp the simple way of determining European/American format: whichever of the first two numbers is greater than 12 is the day and from there it's easy."I am quite confident that I do exist."
