I mean for all we know we could get to a point of constructing a stellar engine and swap out stars, but your form of time-suicide is more creative than mine.

I'm too drat practical, so I'd definitely go for the "buy stocks in tech companies in the late 70s/early 80s" and if I could really amass a poo poo load of wealth in that way, use that to seriously gently caress up the establishment in the here and now.

Go forward to a time when these devices get mass produced, sneak into the factory and swipe as many as I can. Then use the ones I have to swipe the plans and figure out how to mass produce them myself. Now I can time travel all I want!

Sweaty IT Nerd posted:You can go anywhere on the planet. It's the first rule. I'm ready to have a goon argument. So your time travel would have to be in a relatively immediate period of time as how would you know where you are going further out that say....a few hundred years? What was Paris a million years ago? How would you know the location you choose didn't have a tree growing there 50 years ago or 50 years from now? How do you choose? Does the device understand your intention or does it need coordinates? Would it compensate for errosion or should you jump as you travel so your feet don't materialise in the ground?

Alternatively to wishing for a million wishes, this could probably be filed under time suicide, but I'd make the second expedition out of Africa fail. There's probably not time for a third.

What was Paris a million years ago? You look down at the time machine panel. One sentence is on the display. "You're overthinking this." Then you remember that the merchant who sold you the time machine mentioned that it was not just a smart device, but also smart-alec device. Opening the door you wonder, "How am I going to get down?"

Nice try, but it's not actually a time machine; it's a genie that sends you through time. Noblesse Obliged posted:I'm ready to have a goon argument. So your time travel would have to be in a relatively immediate period of time as how would you know where you are going further out that say....a few hundred years? What was Paris a million years ago? This is why I said that going back would be safer than going forward. You go back 100 years, at least you have an idea of what you're getting into. You go forward 100 years, you're rolling the dice on what you get. Maybe it's just super-intelligent apes running the show by then. The intention of where/when you want to go to is taken into account, so that you won't plop into a volcano or inside a hill or something (unless that's your plan all along). You'll pop out on solid ground, where/when you wanted to go, but after that, any hazards you run into are your problem for the next 6 hours.
