Local timezones available on profiles

You can now display your local timezone on your profile to give others an idea of when to expect responses to pull requests or issues from you. You can opt into this feature by navigating to Settings > Public Profile and checking Display current local time. You can also update this information directly from your profile by clicking 'Edit Profile' under your avatar.

This will display your timezone in the left sidebar of your profile as well as your timezone's current deviation from UTC. When other users see your profile or user hovercard, they'll see your timezone as well as how many hours behind or ahead they are from your local time.

Node 12 has been out of support since April 2022, as a result we have started the deprecation process of Node 12 for GitHub Actions. We plan to migrate all actions to run on Node16 by Summer 2023. We will monitor the progress of the migration and listen to the community for how things are going before we define a final date.
To raise awareness of the upcoming change, we are adding a warning into workflows which contain Actions running on Node 12. This will come into effect starting on September 27th.

What you need to do
For Actions maintainers: Update your actions to run on Node 16 instead of Node 12 (Actions configuration settings)
For Actions users: Update your workflows with latest versions of the actions which runs on Node 16 (Using versions for Actions)
