Post by: DYNAGOD on February 03, 2006, 08:38:41 pm
Now if this isnt peculiar , is there somthing in 2037 that MS needs to tell us about? The computers not work after the "Great Pulse of 2037" or something?:P

We are all going to die in 2036 when a giant asteroid hits the earth.
Unless of course we do get something up in space and change the path of the asteroid.  Below is the story:

2036 is the next Y2K style bug where all the clock variables overflow and people hoard canned food and shotguns. Something about filling up a long-worth amount of milliseconds since the unix epoc (~1970) or something.

03:14:08 UTC on January 19, 2038 according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_2038_problem
an overflow of seconds counted in a 32bit signed integer.

Bah, close enough.

My favourite laugh is when Mac users get all superior about the fact that the Mac kernel libraries have already implemented long values, except that most Mac programs haven't.  ;D
