I went and checked 2000000000. It will happen on 2033-05-18T03:33:20.000Z (edited)

Assuming 2000000000 is unix seconds, epochconverter.com converts it to Wednesday, May 18, 2033 3:33:20 AM GMT.

My bad, thank you for the correction. I had converted it properly to 2033 but decided I wanted to switch to the format with ms. Ended up adding a zero in the process without checking the output (other than the .000 being there). Edited

i think you have an extraneous 0. It would not make sense for it to take a longer time to get from 1,000,000,000 to 2,000,000,000 than from the unix epoch to 1,000,000,000.

The time I think you meant to post is Wed May 18 2033 03:33:20 UTC+0000 (Greenwich Mean Time).

I think you've added an extra 0 in there.

realizing that I would be long gone by 2603, your reply made me really sad. then I realized that your calculation is obviously wrong.

can I sue you for such such emotional distress?
