            Found it by accident - was checking if 13 bits of space will be enough to keep dates (which worked out until 2028), now I can reserve extra bit for other data
            Relax, it'll only hit China or somewhere round there!

            The possible impact locations are confined to a region stretching from China, across North and South Korea, Japan, and into the Pacific

              Nope. The asteroid will be deflected by a millionth of a degree when it collides with Musk's Tesla, changing the impact location to Silicon Valley. Karma's a bitch.
              Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down. Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on.
