In almost every ubuntu flavor you can display the date next to the time, but some far I have not been able to find this option. I could click on the calendar and view the date, but it just bugs me that I can't just look at it. I feel like it is something on every device I have or have had.

I imagine when I right-click the time, there should be a checkbox where I can add/remove the date from that.

You need to do a bit of terminal work for this. Don't worry - its not complicated.

Open your terminal and copy - paste the following:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface clock-show-date true

This will display the date in the format of your region-locale.

To hide the date:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface clock-show-date false
