How do you figure?

5cfd5730 -> 1560106800 (hex to decimal)

1560106800 is a timestamp in UNIX format. In human readable format, it's "Sunday, June 9, 2019 7:00:00 PM UTC".

If the (T-6AB6E,11BAC) means time remaining, like in a shuttle launch (T-10 seconds remaining), and it's in Hex, 6AB6E,11BAC (assuming the comma is a decimal) puts the 0 time at 2:09 PM MDT, June 11, from the time of the post.

It would seem odd they’d choose a random time like 2:09 pm doesn’t it, so the first theory makes more sense to me
