   Paul R Schmidtbleicher to All   
   UTC Time Stamps For Files on Flash Drive

   This may be an offbeat topic . . .   
      
   I move files between Tumbleweed Linux & Win 10 Desktops.  I am aware of   
   the differences in Linux RealTimeClock set to UTC and Windows RTC set to   
   local time.   
      
   However, a file saved on the Linux operating system is appears to be   
   saved with a local time stamp.  When saved to a flashdrive, it is saved   
   with a UTC (-8 for me).  When transported to the Win 10 box it looked   
   like I worked on this file at c.3:00am) Linux operating system displays   
   the right time stamp, but adjusted by the operating system.  On the   
   Flashdrive it is saved at UTC time.   
      
   QUESTION: Is there a way to set Dolphin (or whatever) to save a file on   
   an external drive at local time?
