Atari's Starship 1 has been hiding a "Hi Ron!" from the world all this time. For your next trivia night
With all the quarters I put into that machine, why didn't I see it?

Time keeps moving forward, and the point in early 2038 when 32-bit time_t values can no longer represent times correctly is now less than 21 years away. So kids born today will get to fix it?
I'm hoping that link will work, even though it's a sub-only site. Seems to work for me, anyway.

I was telling people about this in 1998 and what I said back then was this is going to be a much bigger problem than the year 2000 issue was.
Thankfully, Visual C++ has dealt with this for a while now. I believe the 2008 version has a 64-bit time_t value and I know the 2010 version does.

Yup, I remember this too. Turns out people have to learn the hard way, and apparently this time around they'll have to learn it twice.

At least that was real, and you got paid for fixing a real problem.
Invoices I handed in for Y2K "fixes" were like plumbers' or car mechanics' invoices.
It's not like I needed the money; I just found it hilarious that people were willing to pay me so much over the odds for doing virtually nothing. If any of them had asked for the money back, I'd have given it to them and shaken their hands.

Will it take down the internet? If so, I'd class this as a much needed good-news story!
Ah, I see you have the machine that goes ping. This is my favorite. You see we lease it back from the company we sold it to and that way it comes under the monthly current budget and not the capital account.

If my wife loses her Bubble Witch and Trivia Crack game saves, there will be hell to pay I tell you! Hell to pay!
When you are dead, you won't even know that you are dead. It's a pain only felt by others.
Same thing when you are stupid.

A new citizen-science project will rescue tens of thousands of potentially valuable cosmic images that are mostly dead to science and bring them fully back to life. Remember: aim for the head next time (Only sure way to kill a zombie astrophoto)

Image Processing has increased a lot in last years... it might be valuable information that weren't detected at that point.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

People who think they’re tech-savvy are just kidding themselves: they’re actually 18% more likely to be hit by identity theft, according to a new study. That would never happen with me! (userid: ksharkey, pwd: p@ssword1)
