It didn't work because thousands of people put in lots of work to make sure it wouldn't work. The fear was justified, we just managed to band together and stop that.

It's like with Y2K or the ozone layer issues. It's not that they weren't important, it's that many many people put in the work to fix them before they got a point where we were fucked.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
