Description

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
When trying to diagnose issues that occurred, as long as you are on the current day, you are treated to seeing the time it occurred so you can find any appropriate logs that accompany the issue.

**Describe the solution you'd like**
Have an option to display the true date/time of events for proper diagnosis

**Describe alternatives you've considered**
You can then hover over the date to see a UTC-based date/time but when you are trying to figure out what entries are relevant this can be time consuming and not very friendly as you have no way to even copy/paste the real dates that are appearing.

**Additional context**
For example, our VCS is currently constantly throwing up the following error;
```
fatal: 'origin' does not appear to be a git repository
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists. (128)
```

But when you look at the alert screen to see what occurs, the alert has no date and time (without hovering), just 4 hours ago so you have only a rough estimate. When you view the repository maintenance section, it's shows dates in a similar format but also with general descriptions such as 'Yesterday' without constant hovering, which do not really help in diagnosing issues as it wastes so much time.
