It’s not about having accurate dates, it’s about how unix time is used in programming. For some systems that reference unix time for essential calculations, that value rolling over and overflowing would cause catastrophic problems
And as long as they get updated, it’ll be fine. Probably cheaper than Y2K. Note that medical and industrial control stuff generally doesn’t care about the date
What happens in 2039?

Do you have any 32 bit computers anymore? Any running important stuff that needs good dates?

Lots of embedded systems and infrastructure. But yeah, nothing important like your porn watching device.

As long as they can be updated.
The first universe simulator will be built, and it’ll crash our current simulation due to recursion.
/s
How are we running in a simulation if the first simulator hasn’t been built?
It has been built, out intm the real world, just not within this simulation.
It will just run real slow ,just like a vm in a vm
Maddie, please fix.
The year after epoch overflows?
