As alluded to here by @MELso, the "AFF Style" selector link is currently glitching. Clicking on the link....

Looking at the developer console, I am seeing the following error -:

[Error] Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 () (style, line 0)

Wasn't even a botched update, it was the lack of one that caused the issue.

Their time servers counted weeks in 10 bit, so they had a max value of 1024. Server counts up to 1024 weeks (19.6 years) then resets to week 0, 2006.

The underlying design flaw is the same as the GPS rollover bug - last seen in 2019, next due in 2038.
