time_t passes 1.000.000.000 seconds ..
< Valjean> Aprogas: I prefer thinking that time is passing by
< Valjean> well, time to go
<@Aprogas> valjean: thats the same as saying that the road is moving when you are in the car
< Valjean> have fun ppl
< Valjean> no its not
<@fiesh> kai: small filesystems maybe, but they won't be the ones used these days i guess
<@Aprogas> it is, and it is physcially correct
< Valjean> oooooh
< Valjean> i think that now I see
<@Aprogas> time is like a line
< Valjean> you're saying that we're moving in time because time is a reference, one of the four dimensions, right?
<@boink> time doesn't exist. how can you measure eternity?
<@Mutru> Re everyone.
* fiesh catches his radio synched clock
<@Aprogas> i'd say there are more than four dimensions
<@Aprogas> boink: you cannot measure things in a reality from within that reality
* bounce hands boink a beam of light
<@boink> how real is real?
<@double-p> 03:16 <@Figz> 999998119 <Figz> time(3) wait(2)'s for no man(1)
<@double-p> :)))
<@Aprogas> as real as a float
< Valjean> Aprogas: the 3 first we all agree on them, the fourth is time; the fifth is what? twilite zone?
< Valjean> :(
<@Mutru> boink: Hmm, maybe about this real. *shows with his hands*
< Valjean> i mean, :)
<@Aprogas> valjean: dont try to understand it, since you are a object with probably three space dimensions, you cannot really imagine how it would be to have more than three space dimensions
<@fiesh> well you can at least mathematically
<@double-p> 640 dimensions are enough for ANYONE !!
<@double-p> :))
<@fiesh> rotfl pp
< Valjean> double-p: nice one! :)
<@enge> :)
<@enge> and counting...
< Calver> pp :-)
< Valjean> Aprogas: yes, and I would add one or two more to account for relativistic effects
<@double-p> 1500
<@enge> [03:12] *** Quits: Symbol (~Katia@ici.paris.fr.eu.org) (upgrade)
<@enge> [03:13] *** Quits: Flopoto (~goeland@flopoto.worldnet.co.at) (upgrade)
<@fiesh> rotfl
<@enge> just had some conversation :P
< Valjean> enge: :)
< Valjean> well
<@devstderr> ishlibodish
<@fiesh> jx seems to be running an eggdrop ;)
< Calver> lol
<@jx> nah.
<@Mutru> Err. This eggdrop thingie is a joke, right? ;)
<@jx> got a little problem here.
< _kai> 1234 to go
< Da_Tommi> last 1000 is near....
<@enge> tick tack
<@enge> There are 63183 users and 5 services on 50 servers
< Da_Tommi> There are 63175 users and 5 services on 63 servers
<@double-p> 55 pb@shea% date +%s
<@double-p> 999998889
<@double-p> missed it :)
< Da_Tommi> Last 1000! Barrier is broken!
< Calver> 1000
<@double-p> 71 pb@shea% date +%s
<@double-p> 999999000
< Calver> hehe
<@double-p> 6 9 !
<@double-p> NINTYSIX !!
<@enge> :P
<@enge> kid
<@double-p> fuck off :)
< Da_Tommi> double: trying to catch all 9999999*** variations? :))
<@enge> overall double-p appears to be the most sane person here, but after all he's the most insane :)
<@double-p> :]
<@enge> in a company of fools the wise looks ridicilous
<@enge> or something
<@devstderr> good nigh all
< _kai> 15 minutes..
< Da_Tommi> getting closer and closer....
<@enge> deeper
<@enge> :)
<@enge> since time is a dimension it can be deep
<@enge> which is cool
< Da_Tommi> it's soon time to take my special drink to here....I'm pretty ready to celebrate..:)
<@Aprogas> lets finish this glass and refill it
<@double-p> yeah, refills
<@double-p> REFILLS !!
<@fiesh> why are there no CPs on such historic days like today?
<@double-p> fiesh: i tried to plan one.. but had the idea too late
<@fiesh> pity, would have been the ideal day :)
<@Aprogas> we just past the 666 seconds left ;)
<@fiesh> night that is
< Da_Tommi> 600!
<@Aprogas> enough time to goto the toilet
< _kai> ==10 minutes...
< iraw> :)
<@Aprogas> kai: no shit, i thought it was 7 hours
< _kai> Let's figure out how fast you have to fly to make 10 minutes 7 hours...
< Da_Tommi> 500!
<@Snq> t- 8min
<@fiesh> t-7min
< topsie> only :)
< Da_Tommi> 400!
<@Kornicz> hm
<@foxtwo> shit, sync your time
<@Aprogas> yeah
<@Aprogas> ntpdate a little
<@foxtwo> indeed
<@fiesh> t-6
<@bounce> hm synced a few hours ago
< topsie> t-2
<@bounce> then synced 5 mins ago
< topsie> ;)
<@Kornicz> i've just heard rumours that old versions of eggdrop won't survive this event... but i can't think of any reason to store the time() value in ASCII representation
<@bounce> had already 2 seconds difference
<@foxtwo> Da_Tommi ain't synced
<@enge> Kornicz: thats right
<@double-p> 999999666
<@bounce> this machine if b0rken
<@Aprogas> kornicz: also not when you think of the kind of people that made eggdrop?
<@enge> Kornicz: http://johoho.eggheads.org/eggdrop/billionsecondsbug.htm
< _kai> .988c :)
<@double-p> 300
< Da_Tommi> 280
< Calver> 3 69 ? :-)
< Da_Tommi> pretty close, I think
<@Kornicz> enge: i doubt that story
< Da_Tommi> No nothing wrong with my clock
< iraw> 250
<@fiesh> t-3min over
<@foxtwo> hmm irc lag must be higher than expected then
< Da_Tommi> 200!
< _kai> 200, almost short enough to hold your breath
<@Snq> Current global users: 62164 Max: 93136
<@Snq> hmm :)
< Da_Tommi> so, I'm not synched, huh?
< jk> 180! :-)
< iraw> 3min
<@Aprogas> lets join a botty channel and see the EOFs from client ;)
<@double-p> eeeep
<@double-p> we approach the next 9
<@foxtwo> Da_Tommi, now it seems you are
< jk> time to run ntpdate, folks, just to be sure ;)
<@Aprogas> 2 min
< iraw> 2mins :)
* fiesh has his clock
<@fiesh> i trust it more! ;)
* budis joined #Botcentral :)
< iraw> good idea :)
< jk> IT is nothing to turst, ever
< Da_Tommi> 100!
<@foxtwo> hundred
<@double-p> 999999900
< wolve> just got home in time from raves
<@Aprogas> how exiting :P
< Da_Tommi> not much left
< iraw> *** iraw joined channel #eggdrop.
< budis> 1 minut
< _kai> not yet.
<@Aprogas> not yet
< jk> hum. do I still have time to get pissed? yee-es, think so.
<@Aprogas> now 1 min
< _kai> now

< wolve> Mutru: its nice to be an old fart when 2G comes
< egresh> champagne
< jk> that's like nothing at all, I'm waiting for *10* Gs! :-)
<@double-p> Mutru: 2^10 is nearer :>
< egresh> milliardium
< iraw> 999999850 :
< iraw> :)
<@foxtwo> doh!
<@fiesh> yeah, we can party again!
<@enge> epoch
< Setok> for he's a jolly good fellow for he's a jolly good fellow, for he's a jolly good fee--elloww, and so say all of us!
< jk> got to do something for that life-estimate, tho
<@fiesh> time for temple of love :)
<@enge> just wait for 111111111111
<@enge> :)
< jk> will do ;)
<@Aprogas> and then 1234567890
<@enge> eh 1111111111
<@enge> not 111111111111
< topsie> 1002678707 ... Ooops! :)
<@enge> Fri Mar 18 02:58:31 MET 2005
<@Aprogas> the next bittenium will be earlier
<@foxtwo> and then 1010101010
<@fiesh> damn, we should find out the next prime > 1000000000
<@Aprogas> 1000000001 ? :)
<@fiesh> lol
<@enge> [03:50] *** Quits: b|gguy (Tidor@max3-net131-ip199-toronto.ica.net) (Operation timed out)
<@enge> have some routers problems?
<@enge> hm :)
<@enge> arent tcp packets timestamped?
<@fiesh> hehe
< egresh> hah, ntpdate has bug
<@fiesh> anyone took the users difference for ircnet?
< topsie> 1010101010
< bwulf> sheesh
<@enge> fiesh: no big diffrence
< iraw> t-7min for eggdrops..
< bwulf> #billennium on openprojects.net is insane
<@fiesh> damn, we missed 1000000007, the prime ;)
<@double-p> 1001001001
<@double-p> :P
* bwulf sees some 1K-2K/second scroll there
<@Mutru> iraw: I still don't believe this eggdrop thing is true. :) Who could write so crappy software?
<@Mutru> iraw: And I tried it with an eggdrop. I saved the luserfile/chanfile and nothing happened.
< dinkles> Mutru: it was fixed in version 1.5 (: i think
< egresh> :)
<@Kornicz> Mutru: i don't believe it either, and i haven't managed to crash one with a .save command either
<@Mutru> dinkles: I tried it with 1.4.3.
<@double-p> Mutru: never except the spanish inquisition ;)
< egresh> 1.6.2 is good
< dinkles> http://johoho.eggheads.org/eggdrop/billionsecondsbug.htm
< dinkles> Mutru: hmm :P ok
<@foxtwo> and rely on internal decimal representation of time
<@Mutru> johoho.eggheads.org points to techmonkeys.org...
< Calver> -500 , yeah like my bank account :-)
< iraw> mutru, we'll see that in 5mins :)
<@Kornicz> Mutru: sprintf(stupidbuffer,"%lu",(unsigned long)time(NULL)); could cause one byte following that char array to be overwritten by the \0 - which shouldn't cause the bot to crash
< dinkles> UNIX will reach two billion on May 17th, 2033, at 11:33:20 PM, GMT.
< egresh> u could check it before 1000000000
< _kai> 2^30 is in Jan 10, 2004
< egresh> Kornicz: which version of what bots ?
<@Kornicz> Mutru: and snprintf() would just result in the last digit being discarded, and i guess that wouldn't really matter :)
< jk> a segfault, more likely
<@double-p> 1000000001.376957 212.255.74.1.22 > 212.255.74.29.49772:
<@double-p> :]
<@Kornicz> egresh: eggdrops <1.6.5 are supposed to crash - but i haven't heard of any of them crashing so far, but i'm too lazy to look at the source
< egresh> Kornicz: I run 1.6.2 and still not crashing *g*
<@foxtwo> 2p :)
<@Kornicz> jk: as long as the byte following the string still belongs to the eggdrop process, nothing will happen - well, it might corrupt some internal data, but that's it
< jk> technically, if there's room for a null which *isn't* written, yee-es... :)
<@enge> 1022104800 is to celebrate next
<@enge> my birthday
<@enge> :)
< Calver> :-)
< iraw> one minute left :)
< jk> yay! 1006700000 is *exactly* my 27th birthday. to the minute. frightening.
< _kai> 1010101010 is Jan 4, 2002
