What are you doing to prepare? Time is literally running out.
>>10902674864 bit time_t
I think my os was 64-bit for the last 10 years at least.
>>109026748Oldest device I keep in active use is a budget Nokia from 2014 that I unironically use mainly for the calendar, and that ends on 2079
>>109027130Even 64-bit oses are impacted, because they were built when 32-bit processors were the norm. Thus their timestamp is usually 32-bit.On unix and windows, all timestamps are 32-bit. There's currently a huge effort on linux to recompile code to use a 64-bit timestamp format. But windows' proprietary ecosystem makes it difficult
>>109027574so what do we do? do I freeze my puter or what
>>109027598upgrade to windows 11 and buy a new motherboard with tpm and secure boot so you're secure and safe from CWEs and zero days
>>109027605>upgrade to windows 11 and buy a new motherboard with tpm and secure boot
>>109027622tick tock, babyduck, your deadshitos is done
>>109027632It's literally just a date. Who cares. It's an userspace problem. Not a kernel problem. How is it a kernel problem? What the fuck are they compiling with 64 bit on Linux?
>>109028914>Epoch code suddenly reads 1970>Airplanes fall out of the sky because aviation hasn't been invented yet
>>109026748Lets be real. By 2038 none of us will own computers.
This is a problem we won't have to worry about in practice for literally more than a decade. Cool your jets, you faggot. Plus, we have plenty of solutions prepared well in advance.
Vibe coders will just make kick the can down the road patches.
>>109029073>moon landing was before aviation>no planes in WW2sure is technology in here
I'm sure all of the women and Indians that we gave all of the power/jobs in tech to are well equipped and prepared to handle this, nothing to worry about on our side
>>109026748Wait. Why is it signed?
Figured it out: >>109029615They used signed because it allows to represent pre 1970 times.It's like BCE/CE.Well, it is kinda cool to have a separate UNIX calendar. But also very retarded from the engineering point of view to use such smol time frames.
>>109029073Nah Continental Army took over the airports from the British, back in the 1770s
>>109029377At least we'll be happy.
>>109029729To be fair, in 1970 we couldn't have imagined the future this far ahead.
