Set the current time to exactly 13.77 billion years (in seconds) then add the current Unix time in seconds from January 1, 1970 to maintain continuity. Just conveniently forget about the 40 million year uncertainty, it will cloud your mind.

just think of everything in terms of seconds from 1970 and itll all fall out
Until 2038
64 bit computers exist

Relativity would like a word.
Better idea: instead of Epoch time move it back a few months to the moon landing.
