If it gets to that point in the future then we would have to start looking at 64 bit time_t solutions.
Otherwise it's far enough ahead not to worry about IMO.

If we only use 0 and 1 there is no issue. 01000010011000010110001101101011001000000111010001 10111100100000011000100110000101110011011010010110 00110111001100100000011000010110111001100100001000 00011100110110000101110110011001010010000001110100 01101000011001010010000001110111011011110111001001 10110001100100
Imagine there no satellites
It's hard to do
Nothing to communicate with
And no words too
Imagine all the humans
Talking with binary yah yyy y y
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one...
I hope some day
The comps will join us
And we all live as one.

And by that time, the only 32-bit CPUs still running will be the ones in the N900s so it's a task that we can deal here on TMO

Hahaha
...I wouldn't be surprised at all if there weren't a few n900's still running by then.

First of all, 2036 is just a GUI limitation. Time and date are managed by the Linux kernel so it will continue working after 2036 but you may have to use the date command to set it if the GUI hasn't been fixed in CSSU by then.
The real overflow will occur in 2038 as already mentioned. Rest assured, the problem is being worked on. I would hope that all N900 patches would have been upstreamed by then. The latest upstream kernels are already bootable on the N900 with many things working, no patches required (at least under Debian).
