Might be completely stupid question, but I'm who I'm, so I have to ask.
Why is it signed?🤔
Can time be negative? Or is it for comparing 2 dates?
@FandaSin it needs to be negative for dates before 1970
@bagder it will be my birthday!! :D
@bagder figures, it is on my birthday.
@bagder meh, of course it would be on a Sunday. I hope I'm not on call that day.
@bagder we need to fix this asap :D
@bagder One of my all time favourite Wikipedia quotes is that the Year 2038 Problem page used to say
> 64-bit time_t would introduce a new overflow on December 4th, 292,277,026,596. This is generally not considered to be a pressing issue.
@bagder Darn, I already scheduled the heat death of the universe for that day...
@simonzerafa @bagder I tried scheduling a post on 292277026596-04-12 in Mastodon, but was unsuccessful. @jerry pls advise
@catsalad @simonzerafa @bagder @jerry that's not surprising. what about 292277026596-04-11, though?
@bagder I'll mark that in my calendar, as the day to start switching to IPv6
@bagder We will have more interesting issues by than, that is, we didn't kill ourselves this century for good
What time? I want to set an alert in my Calendar 😉
@bagder filing this fact under Someone Else's Problem
I'll put that in my calend... DAMN!
@bagder That's not very smart, we should use 65-bits to make it fall in a Thursday instead, nobody wants his Sunday ruined for this.
