Kinda annoyed that there wasn't even a spike in traffic on my website yesterday at 2025-04-16T19:07:44+00:00

Was no one watching the bit flip to 01101000 00000000 00000000 00000000?
Anyway, see you guys at 2029-07-18T05:49:52+00:00 when it flips to 01110000 00000000 00000000 00000000, which is when we'll lose the next bit to the epochalypse.

US News: White House Shifting Cyber Risk to State and Local Agencies
Executive Order Shifts Cyber Responsibilities to States, Sparking Security Concerns
This could be a good time to be a #cybersecurity / #infosec expert in the USA. Or an appalling time. I guess it depends on how comfortable they are at coping with risk and uncertainty and potential disasters.
Also time to start prepping for Year2038 aka #Epochalypse (when Unix systems reach time end). 💻 ⌛

Soviel zum Thema im Jahr 2038 gibt es keine Legacy Systeme mehr 😂 #y2k38 #Epochalypse

REMEMBER 2038-01-19!
I made a new batch of #y2k38 stickers. Slightly different design this time.
If you are around at #fosdem2025, I'll drop some there.

@henry Maybe because they are "AI Resistant" and survived the AI Apocalypse in 2037, and had no RTC, so also survived the #Epochalypse in Jan 2038 (https://www.tomsguide.com/us/2038-bug-bh2017,news-25551.html)
😜
And with that we are in the 80s of the #epochalypse[1] – at least percentage wise.

Enjoy it while it lasts, as soon we will have made 80 percent of the way to #epochalypse[1]: https://botsin.space/@countdownY2K38/112575916930985643
How come we've successfully dealt with Y2K problem, but struggle with leap seconds and even daylight saving every time?
Can't wait for the #epochalypse in 2038. Nice to imagine being pulled out of a retirement at a remote cabin to deal with it 90s action movies style.
Bei X hat ein Nutzer an das Problem erinnert, dass #32Bit-Systeme im Jahr 2038 treffen könnte. Es handelt sich dabei um den "Nachfolger" des Jahr-2000-Problems: #Y2K38 #Epochalypse https://winfuture.de/news,141592.html?utm_source=Mastodon&utm_medium=ManualStatus&utm_campaign=SocialMedia
TIL about the #year2038 #2038Problem "Many systems use a 32-bit integer to store the Unix time - the number of seconds since 1 January 1970, known as the Unix epoch. On 10 January 10 2038 at 03:14:07 UTC this count will exceed the maximum value a 32-bit integer can hold, causing an overflow." 👀 :goose_hacker:

@basti Zeit als Endgegner 😁 Genau auf den Punkt gebracht! Gefällt mir. #y2k38 #Epochalypse
Der Fahrplan wurde wohl in Excel berechnet 😉
From the wiki page on #Epochalypse
>The ext4 filesystem, when used with inode sizes larger than 128 bytes, has an extra 32-bit field per timestamp, of which 30 bits are used for the nanoseconds part of the timestamp, and the other 2 bits are used to extend the timestamp range to the year 2446.

Y2K38 superbug or the Epochalypse, when 32-bit time_t expires, and all old hardware is forced out of service.

Falls jemand gelegentlich hier an das #Y2K38-Problem (aka #y2038 #epochalypse) erinnert werden will, folgt @countdownY2K38
We are now 14 years away from software storing UNIX time as signed 32-bit integers overflowing and taking us back to 1901. Hopefully your software has been upgraded to store UNIX time in 64-bit integers!
Zum Glück ist noch Zeit. Wir könnten Hersteller und Importeure dazu verpflichten, ihre Geräte auch bei ins Jahr 2038 vorgestellter Zeit auszuprobieren.
Das wäre der Idealfall. Ob es soweit kommt, hängt am politischen Willen. Der typischerweise mehrjährige Gesetzgebungsprozess müsste jetzt gestartet werden, damit die in den nächsten Jahren gekauften Geräte auch 10 Jahre halten.
Wir haben aber auch Tipps zur Selbsthilfe auf Lager.
