The thing is, today and all of its Biblical "coincidences" matches up so nicely with Trump's "It's going tobe Biblical" proclamation.
Now, what if all the unfulfilled date-fagging up to this point conditioned us (and the enemy) to think "No way... this is too obvious... it will be a nothingburger." And then WHAM! It's on!!!
I am not expecting... just hoping like the rest of us.
The Y2K disaster was averted by tens of thousands of programmers like me. It wasn't BS. I worked for a national financial institution and we worked 60-70 hour weeks for almost a year to avert this disaster.
True, but everything in our house, our Apple G3s and cute colorful iMac computers, bike speedometer/mileage tracker, my Casio digital G-Shocks, our digital displayed household clocks, our cordless phones... all of them, continued to display the proper date and functioned as they should on January 1, 2000. I didn’t have an “IT” department working round the clock to calibrate all of my personal devices.
Now, I understand that it was antiquated OS’s running on ancient software that was the true time bomb in the Y2K phenomenon. One of the “Big Three” entertainment companies I worked for at the time had to hire out additional IT manpower to ensure that all digital files and networks would not get corrupted. This is when I met my first “stacker/prepper.” This freelance IT guy was responsible for updating our department. He folded a dollar bill into an origami of configurations showing me all these symbolisms buried in the bills - lol it was insane. He convinced me that JFK Jr didn’t die in the recent plane crash. He was onto every conspiracy and I was eating it up!
I never did stack anything because my feeling is, if we truly get to the Wild West of things, then it’s gonna be kill or be killed and it’ll petty much be game over for a majority of the population. Fast forward to today and I truly believe that Trump and the White Hats most definitely wont let that happen.
They wouldn't have without a lot of hard work. For what it's worth, it's going to happen in 2038 for systems running UNIX derivatives including almost all Apple devices.
CORRECT. This is the best answer. My GF was a PM on one of these projects for a large insurance company, mostly mainframe stuff. The programmers were making BANK.
You are correct that most mainframe development was done in COBOL or FORTRAN running under MVS back then. However, we were coding in C & assembler on a mainframe running an obscure IBM OS called VSE for my project. FORTRAN & COBOL were supported languages, but we were trying to port the existing tape handling code that was written in assembler to C so that we could then recompile it and run it under UNIX.
This was a partnership between Microsoft and Telecheck and they put every project on hold to face the Y2K challenge. After we got past Y2K, they sold the company, and we moved everything to MVS and Unix. MVS did the tape handling and UNIX hosted the Oracle DB and the product development just like God intended. ;)
Et tu, Brutus? I cringe every time I hear someone say that Y2K was a nothingburger. I devoted a couple of years of my life to fixing that problem at the company I worked for. Believe me, it was a real thing. I didn't get to party like it was 1999, because I was at work all night monitoring the situation. We did remarkably well, too. Only a couple of minor glitches popped up and those were fixed by the next day.
i didn't mean it was a nothingburger, yes it was a computer problem that had to be fixed.. but the media even then blew it out of proportion.. what they blew it up to was nothing like it was because the computer problem was fixed with updates.
It did have the potential for being catastrophic, though, especially for the manufacturing of goods where it is vital to record the order of processing events via a timestamp. Without the inclusion of the century in the date formatting, events will present out of order, resulting in all kinds of grief. This is but one example of the problems that could have arisen.
The only reason this wasn't a catastrophe is because everyone took it seriously and worked for a couple of years to fix it. No one knew that ahead of time, however, as no one knew what the other companies were or were not doing. All it would have taken for a disaster to occur is a couple of key industries that didn't take the problem seriously.
All in all, this was IT's shining moment and all we got was ridiculed over it because "nothing happened." Imagine the flak we would have taken, though, had "something" happened.
Sorry, this is just a sore spot with me. Most have no clue what a monumental task this truly was.
With so much at stake this year it's hard to imagine the cabal passing up this opportunity for fuckery. If [they] do try something I suspect it will be countered immediately.
Oh my goodness you did 10 once? I'm going to have a close look at your comment history, frog, haha. The most I ever did was four, that boy did I ever feel stupid for doing that
Terrence McKenna once said that 5 g of dried mushrooms was a heroic dose so I did six. All I'm going to say about the experience is that the devil cannot be defeated alone without Christ
I am at the eclipse at a campground with a mushroom chocolate bar. The spouse and I will be enjoying that and some Pink Floyd timed for the lyric and the sun is eclipsed by the moon.
I used to grow my own, too! I found that the shrooms would do a "farmer dance" because I did them myself instead of selling them. I asked one of the Entities and they said, "We're sick of getting sold and having to go to raves and teenage summer music festivals all the time!" LOL
You guys are something. The most I ever did was 1 1/2 purple microdots. Fried for 18 hours straight. Of course, this is when I was young and stupid! Blotter was usually bunk.
I feel like I understand you better, somehow, now, lol
I didn't know what strains I was growing but they were duuuuusted, with orange and purple and blues (which I later found out were bruising and does not contribute to strength).
That's seriously epically impressive, but, I can say from direct experience that some people have different tolerances to psychedelics. My Australian friend that I met in Peru at the Ayahuasca retreat absolutely amazed our shaman with his ability to tolerate Aya. I was doing 3/4 of a small cup, but he could do up to 3 and would only trip a little bit. His liver was a tank.
I, (being technologically-challenged), probably have 500+ tabs open in Chrome on my ancient tablet, not sure how many I have on the built-in Samsung
browser, but still powering on!
I did see the eclipse from my backyard and it was awesome! 😎
Nothing will happen, its too obvious. The bad guys will be left wondering WHY? because they are wrapped up in symbolism, ....It will be their downfall....and when it happens they WILL be caught flat-footed.
I used to do so much acid when I was a teenager. Ridiculousness. That’s what happens when you grow up in Southern California in the 80s, and Timothy Leary was living in Laguna Beach. I never liked mushrooms though. Weird.

Strike like the fastest animal on the planet!

They're so damn cool🐸
In my opinion it’s not a matter of if just when.
“Let your plans be dark and impenetrable as night, and when you move, fall like a thunderbolt.”
Moon Shadow : Scares the sheep and makes the conscious think.
Choose Wisely.
It will happen fast, it will take an hour to reverse everything. It will be Biblical.

Were you FORTRAN or COBOL?

I'm expecting Y2K too.. all talk for nothing.
But i'm alert in case SHTF

Ya know deep down we're all hoping something biblical WILL happen during or after the eclipse. Rod and staff
I think it's the world's greatest metaphor for change. Dark to light.

Shroooms....MMMMMMMMM... I harvested Paneolus shrooms off a college campus long long ago.. sat on the bank of the bay... all good! 😊
I am at the eclipse at a campground with a mushroom chocolate bar. The spouse and I will be enjoying that and some Pink Floyd timed for the lyric and the sun is eclipsed by the moon.
EPIC. Trip report, please! Hope you had a good time.

Shrooms have feelings and they show it with incredible colors... 😎

This man routinely did 30 grams dry.

Or maybe his liver wasn’t processing as well as needed. So your friend needed more.
