*We are not time experts.
This month’s episode is a little bit about Y2K and a lot bit about your thermostat getting caught in a boot loop in 2038, a year not nearly as catchy as Y2K.
Discussed
Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, Y2K, Swatch Internet Time, Pizza Hut, Thermostats, Runescape, 4-bit, 32-bit, and 64-bit timekeeping, heat death of the universe, general collapse and e-waste-ification of Amazon garbage.

Mentioned in this episode:
We're participarting in Extra Life 2025!
For 24 hours, beginning on November 8 at 9AM EDT, we'll be streaming some of our favorite (and farfetched) games to support the kids of Boston's Children's Hospital. Come hang out at https://www.twitch.tv/70percentcomplete and help us raise some money for the kids.
There'll be speedrunning Goldeneye, OSRS aplenty, rock and stone (probably not that kind), and space ships. You don't want to miss it!
