Then all of /x/ will be successful.

How to begin travel?

>>17228467
Precisely so. Who else would take time travel seriously long enough to create a practical device?
>>17228454
Causal paradoxes aren't true paradoxes. Ideally, we all live in similar enough versions of history such that we all have access to the same set of timelines. Unfortunately, and particularly in the case of people directly interacting with their past, this is not always the case. To resolve this situation and make such divergent timeliness accessible to the rest of history again, the nature of the modifications must be understood. Once we have a tactical map of the given modifications, we can work to create coordinate systems that allow us to travel between the two divergent worlds with minimal extraneous divergence.

Want to. Absolutely nobody will waste their time trying to move you through time unless you were already planning on doing it. It would be a waste of time to give engineering schematics to someone that has as much desire to more through time as a rock does. Basically, you want to have temporal characteristics that are distinct from that of an inanimate object. From the vantage point of the future, the past often appears very inanimate.

How similar do you consider "real" time travel to be to that in the film Primer?

>>17228571
So I already know that we don't exist, so ignoring reality is not a issue,

So if I understood if you go back in time you just are visiting a alternative timeline?
>>17228571
So it we visit the past we are travelling to different timeline in the quantum universe?

Is it a machine you need to time travel?
In case yes wich materials?

>>17228585
I wouldn't know, I haven't seen it yet.
>>17228593
>I already know that
In general, time travel changes what you think you know. It's hard to step through that gate without understanding that something freakishly unintuitive is happened. Panic is a very common symptom. It can be hard to tell which is worse: Future shock or the "I'm in my own past" existential crises.
>we don't exist
Time travel will reaffirm your existence significantly.
Don't expect your beliefs to remain the same when traveling though time. In many ways it can be like a psychedelic trip.
>if you go back in time you just are visiting a alternative timeline?
No. That IS your past, most of the time. It's not an alternate world unless you push its future to deviate from the other future you came from. In that case the past is still the same shared past, but the futures are "alternate" versions of each other.
>the quantum universe?
No. Entanglement is an acausal mechanism but it doesn't work like quantum physics posits. Suffice to say, the quantum world emerges when you try to push acausality out of classical physics.
>>17228599
Yes, you'll need a calibrated device. The materials aren't the hard part in designing a temporal device.

>>17228677
And can you tell us from which materials it's made?

>>17228707
Detailed schematics & production process are always good, too.

>>17228409
>success in time travel requires a strong ability to ignore reality

True, it requires such a deep meditation the world finishes it's matrix round.

Painful lonely stuff, not recommended.

>>17228749
So what you recommend for love and control satan?

>>17228707
The materials aren't relevant. Each era has their own unique type of temporal device, specifically constructed to deal with the issues introduced by prior generations. The physical reactions involved in warping space-time are classified information for this time period. The only clue I can safely give at this time is that you'll need to rewind to the pre-quantum era and start your research from that vantage point. Think of particle physics as globally coordinated misdirection to delay the invention of temporal technology.
>>17228738
Listing information in that format would benefit the wrong temporal parties.
>>17228739
No. Time travel has never been invented for the purposes of saving the past from near-extinction. It has been used opportunistically, to prevent certain types of disasters that turned out to be reversible for certain tangents of history, but nobody's really bothered to invent it for the sake of saving the past.

The general reasoning of the future if that the past had to happen the way it did for them to exist as they do. It's another type of existential fear that we do our best to address with timeless reasoning.

Islam has a limited set of temporal properties that make it moderately ideal for future manipulation. It has been the subject of considerable criticism in the future, but without an obviously safer solution, it stands to reason that there are explicit efforts to prevent such solutions from forming. It isn't hard to imagine who might benefit from such suppression.

>>17228778
>Listing information in that format would benefit the wrong temporal parties.
Fair enough.
Would still like to see something for proof reasons and personal curiosity...meaning, I personally would like to have this technology to benefit myself, as well as the planet as a whole, as I'm sure most anons here would.

Are you here on 4chan to guide the first one that will invents time traval? or has your visit here nothing to do with that?

Another question: say someone from another timeline has fucked things up really bad and is now trapped in this timeline? Is there a way out?

Will the future use something that they call blockchain for using transactions?

>>17228812
>myself, as well as the planet as a whole
Your priorities are wrong; the planet as whole came before you by a significant margin. You are not separate from the needs of the planet. Clearly you should want to protect the thing that makes you possible before you work for your own benefit.

This is basic causal reasoning here. You have the solemn duty of protecting your own origin point, if nothing else. That means protecting every origin point that led to your origin. Nobody but you can protect your origins as effectively as you can.
>>17228824
>to guide the first one
No. It's more accurate to say I'm here to ensure the future goes off without a hitch. Even if it shifts beyond what it knows how to repair. I'm working to protect every origin point that extends from every action I take here. 99.9% of the time, that means I have to silently observe without recommending any intervention. Observation gets exponentially harder the longer the duration you wish to observe.

>Is there a way out?
In general, no. You should assume that every point in time that doesn't directly follow your own origin point is a lethal trap. The moment a portal closes with you on the "alternate" (non-original) side is the moment you are lost in time. This doesn't have to be a permanent circumstance, but it certainly has that tendency among the undisciplined.

So long as you didn't come here to explicitly ruin all possible futures that would've invented time travel, though, the most reliable way to travel to the far future is to make an illegal jump to the past.

The only tragedy in time travel is losing access to the possibility of future navigation.
>>17228852
The future will use everything at some point. Otherwise it wouldn't have led history along the paths of technological progression you see around you. Someone will benefit from each unique technology.

>>17228887
>Clearly you should want to protect the thing that makes you possible before you work for your own benefit.
Or, you know, shape it in your image.
Not like you'll do anything more than talk in circles here, anyway...like every other thread about time travel.

>>17228887
You really need ti define your mechanics a bit better. Are we talking about consciousness shifting across temporal lines or actual full-body transportation?

Those are two very different things.

Also, are you the "permanent stance" anon? You write like him and I could never understand what the hell that guy was going on about. Elaboration now, maybe?

>>17228887

this is a shitty non-sequitur answer that makes you look like a fraud.

How would you identify a tangent that never would occur for yourself in the future already?

---

I have asked from you time travel people already about my own identity, and since you never know my name, I presume you are all frauds. I am not famous, but I am infamous.

Also, are you aware that the movie predestination is almost entirely non-fiction.
No jokes.

There is little that happens on this planet that I am not privy to.

>>17228932
Yes, I authored a permanent stance in time and a couple seed bills of rights for a yet-to-be nation or else a yet-to-be policy to be adopted by existing nations at the advent of time travel. Currently that path of history is diluted significantly by my desire to observe the timeline in silence. My goal isn't to work with the present, but an eventual type of future that never suffers a globally catastrophic event. I'm aiming for a very specific tangent of history without my observations.

I write about physical time travel. I usually envision human-sized portals that open for ten to fifteen seconds for the purposes of transporting people. I call this "active jumping." More advanced futures may be able to create permanent portals with full acausal security measures.

My basic goal is to grant acausal rights to the past, particularly proper protection. At it stands, the past is generally considered a technicality to divide out of our coordinate systems rather than treating it as a dynamic system in its own rights.
>>17228941
>that makes you look like a fraud
I suppose there's no getting around that in this time period. Unless given the authority to jump to someone's doorstep, there's not much I can do or say that would really matter in a physical manner.

>I am infamous.
The future tends to ignore infamy because giving it attention generally means creating origin points off of it eventually. Think of it like censorship, but with the consent of the people rather than a top-down dictated surrender of information. I guess it would be more accurate to think of it as a warning label.

>>17228941
"Pleased to meet you won't you guess my name?"

Listening to the Stones a lot lately? Mick Jagger is looking a bit unstable. Don't worry though. He'll be fine.

>>17228990
>My goal isn't to work with the present, but an eventual type of future that never suffers a globally catastrophic event.

Ok that's noble and you do whatever you think would fix that. I always figured some form of "mass quantum immortality" was preventing that sort of thing from occurring naturally. What you are proposing seems more active or, at least, seems like it would need to be more active. Elaborate again, please. How are you planning on getting to the "eventual type of future"?

>I'm aiming for a very specific tangent of history without my observations.

Also needs clarification.

>>17228990
Im not sure what you are refering too...

I'm infamous at the moment, in the future I obviously wont be, I'll be well known for the works, even the things I have already accomplished would overshadow any other human being...

Are you familiar with the spiritual technology to transport consciousness through time and space, I remember developing it, but at this time, its out of my grasp... I also developed physical time-travel through the use of the mind alone, and I know you won't believe that. But that too was something I first was told to stop (for my own 'health'), and then lost ability for through some subsequent instability with memory, which was necessary for my greater work.

Are you aware that the time travel aspects of Riley Rewind is also non-fiction?

>>17229028
at this point if you cant spell my name, or my initials I will know you are fraud...

Also, I was pointing an inconsistency with your explaination, the fact that you talk about 'teleporting' outside my door, just creates more instability with your credibility.

Why would you venture into the past, to combat existential fears about tangential disasters that never even ended up occurring for yourselves already!????

Is there a timeline where Germany won WW1 or WW2? If so, what happened? Was that timeline a good one?

>>17229028
How much time has passed for you since your last thread, the one before this.

>>17229070

>>17229088

Don't hold em anymore, but I guess I never fully came up with them myself, I used two reference books, which were very distinctly different alchemical tomes left behind by some wannabe magicians... and I used them to engage the HG into time and space manipulation...

>>17229025
Active jump works for me, but I'd have to schedule it. That has its own complication. Hopefully there'll be a passive path that allows me to continue my stance of non-intervention. Unfortunately, there are a number of factions that want to prevent every bit of tangent that moves in that direction. I don't mind it, but it does prolong the duration of observation I'll subscribe to until the tangent configures itself.

>aiming [...] with my observations.
Sorry, that was a typo.
>>17229028
>overshadow any other human being
Sorry, that's not desirable in any future. We've tested that hypothesis extensively.
>at this time, its out of my grasp
That's what it's like to be in the past, yes. You're not special in locality.
>fiction
It's hard to make proper time travel fiction without some future eventually reacting to the ideas that spread from it. I'm hoping my work can be seen as a valid alternative to fiction manipulation on a wide scale.
>>17229052
Because that future is among many that understand that their future is not the only one. We're trying to work together, not work to separate ourselves from each other. The more timelines we can guide together, the more peace we can create over the whole of our collective continuum.
>>17229068
It's highly probable. Some models predict that all armed conflicts in history would necessarily be the result of shifts in the temporal structure of history. Under that model, every war was won by all sides. There would necessarily be a timeline for every outcome.

I've never been there.
>>17229088
>enlightened
I certainly wouldn't make such a claim. I also don't hold the secrets of the universe, but I know a fair bit about the nature of time, time travel, and time travel resolutions.

>>17229088
OP made a bunch of threads before this that sounded pretty schizo. As a result he got few replies and was also a bit more, uh, hostile or just generally unresponsive? They're floating around in the 4plebs archive and if you use his trip you can find them. They're pretty weird. One of them is a "Time Traveller's Bill of Rights" or some such.
He's bizarre enough and not too special snowflake that I'm monitoring this thread.

Let me clarify, then. I appreciate your goal and I want to assist you however possible. However, you aren't elaborating much on how that's possible for any of us here. Or yourself, although I can at least understand that you would want to guard that information.

How can a future without a global catastrophe arise: does it do so naturally, or with intervention? How does the tangent configure itself?

To start out you'll need a firm understanding of the theory of general relativity. A lot has been written on it already so that won't be too much of a challenge to learn if you really care to learn it, but there's also some obfuscation about the nature of electricity and magnetism. Your initial goal isn't to warp space as such, but to "bulge" or "dent" it in a way that allows for primitive acausal interaction. It requires a firm understand of acausal reasoning before you'll be able to detect that anything out of the ordinary is happening. Temporal experiments tend to be pretty intricate and general relativity has a certain tendency to weed out people that don't have it in them to understand the subtler intricacy.
>>17229144
>if so, what are you doing about them?
Spreading public knowledge in a non-alarmist way.

As for your other question, see: >>17228887

Not without a calibrated device and a destination. I certainly don't believe in mental time travel using a physical body.
>>17229148
Then it's safe to say you're not infamous, either. It seems like your prediction of the future are limited in an unrealistic way. I'd urge you to seek medical attention, but this era doesn't have proper mental health clinics in most places. One of the biggest humanitarian needs that would significantly benefit from open time travel is the psychotherapy market.
>>17229165
>the future, does it even exist?
There's never really been just one. There are a number of timelines that lack American politics, if not the actual United States of America. I won't speak about the upcoming president election because there's a slim chance my doing so could affect the outcome in unpredictable ways. It's not a big risk, but it's there.

What year are you from

>>17229173
>how that's possible for any of us here
That's been a significant problem for me, actually. I can protect myself well enough, but it's harder to ensure others can protect themselves in timelines where I've gone missing. My initial plan this year is to post threads like this every quarter to ensure we don't get caught off guard by random intervention.

>How can a future without a global catastrophe arise: does it do so naturally, or with intervention? How does the tangent configure itself?
99% of all temporal intervention is a reaction to all other forms of temporal intervention. It's a recursive problem that requires careful coordination to solve. I'm taking a big risk by interacting exclusively with history via the internet. I feel that all other methods would give me unfair temporal advantage. It's also a way for me to show my commitment to public dissemination of temporal information. This thread is technically a form of intervention, so it's up for debate as to whether or not that tangent benefits from intervention or not. Suffice to say, I observe for the sake of that future whether it exists yet or not. If it doesn't exist, it can always be created.

People like you, who are ready and willing to work with something that might not exist are the aspect of history that causes it to configure itself.

I'll need to write more about this, but I also have to factor in that you may be replaced by a time travel "shill" at any or every moment. I can't write or even plan properly unless your identity is observably consistent. Basically, you have to be yourself and have a means to eventually protect yourself from future manipulation once you have the means to correct manipulations and other interventions.
>>17229177
It's a good bet that, no matter how long history extends itself, someone will eventually try to create one. I don't have much confidence in such a thing and it only exists in the rarest situations and tangents of history.

Ok, again, how? Are we back to the "Rights and Equilibrium" thread?

You want me to trip? I suspect that's equally unreliable given the stated forces at work here.

I could also create a permanent stance in favor of non-catastrophe (assuming I read that correctly), although I also understand that's an invitation to being fucked with.

You can cross-link your old threads for reference, I'm still a bit hazy on the details in them.

>>17229285
>My initial plan this year is to post threads like this every quarter
Great.
So every few months, we'll get another one of these vague, cryptic, RP threads that explains nothing?
Wait...that happens daily here.
Never mind.

>>17229218
Asking about materials science isn't the same as asking that anon's question. Engineering is a hard problem and answering a question about materials in relation to temporal technology would be a form of tacit misdirection. Due to the way I've chosen to interact with the timeline, tacit misdirection is very relevant. I've been very careful throughout my time on 4chan to ensure minimal tacit misdirection. I'm not in a position to correct every misinterpretation that might emerge from my interactions here.
>>17229251
>Give us some info we can use, please.
That's a hard problem. How information gets used is the governing aspect of history. Giving mountain after mountain of information would result in people having a very real need to use that information to stop me from ever spreading it in the first place. It isn't the same as having free reign to inform people about the exact structure of the future. On top of that I don't know you or anything about you or who you might be. Engineering schematics could be a godsend to one anon and entirely useless to other anons. I have to ensure a balanced trajectory or I'd be signing my own death warrant.

How you phrase your question is literally all I have to go on towards getting you the information that'd actually be useful to you. If this isn't mutual, it's an attempt to isolate and control the information in my possession. Letting you believe that I have no useful information to give is a tactical decision I'm forced to make for your own protection if not mine.

I have no device at the moment. If I had one on me at the time I posted this thread, I wouldn't be here to respond to your questions. Some faction would have jumped through time to stop me. Some have done so even though I don't have any illegal technology on me at this time. It isn't safe to make threads like this; I only do so after weighing the effects of every divergent path that results from such threads.

>No hints about the future, nothing useful.
Again, what's useful depends on your location and expertise. "But a time traveler warned us!" isn't an argument that stops a tragedy from happening. It'd still happen, the only difference would that a bunch of /x/philes could say they knew.

Besides, I'm not here to tell you about the timeline.

I'm here to tell you that you can change it. Why ask what's going to happen when you can change what's going to happen?

The answers so far have been basic because I'm not quite sure what all you're ready to understand. I don't know what you consider basic because I've never met you. If this is beneath your intelligence, ask a more advanced question. Put your ignorance forward so I know what's useful to say and what doesn't need to be rehashed.
>>17229323
>a way to defend myself, or destroy them
The future is easily destroyed by information. Just making something public knowledge can prevent some of the most sinister outcomes currently possible. You quite literally wage this "war" by knowing anything at all. "It'll all make sense when the time comes," is often a very effective method in propagating temporal information. Non-alarming is the only relevant aspect of that question. Recall that what we do and say now can affect all futures.
>>17229326
There's no real evidence of that. Many futures and factions within the various futures have created complex "bluffs" in hopes that someone will eventually react in a way that favors them, but this tends to be such a highly ineffective method that it never practically happens.
>>17229333

>You want me to trip? I suspect that's equally unreliable given the stated forces at work here.
Exactly not. It's a risk for your to expose any sort of personally identifying information, including the subtle bits of your psychology that'd choose a trip.

Basically you need to do what you just did. I know an /x/phile when I see one. The goal is to make sure that even if a time traveler abducts and impersonates you in an alternate version of history it'll be because they copied your posts from future versions of this timeline. In effect, even if you get replaced, the original version of history would still contain you and I interacting in a genuine capacity.

I took up this trip precisely so no other anon who sought time travel would ever have a need to do so.

So yes, we're back to rights and equilibrium. Until at least one future exists that grants rights to past and future alike, our interactions can only be half as effective as they'd be if we had a protected right to discuss these things publicly. You can think of the future like a puzzle: Without all the pieces, we can't see the picture.

Even the smallest interaction can permanently alter the course of history. Some courses are simpler.
>>17229404
Yes. There's only four quarters in a year, so by the third thread things should be remarkably clear. I'm hoping it'll get clearer must faster than that, but the future may have to rearrange things a bit to make way for a more stable continuum. You can always ask for clarification on any part.
>>17229465
>Dishonored 2
I haven't the slightest clue. It might have already come out for all I know.
>You know what we mean.
I actually don't. There's any of a hundred different types of highly useful information to choose from.

are we ultimately living until the point of equilibrium? is this the timeline where everything goes the way it is supposed to?
do we actually have any control over any of this? or its predetermined and it will happen regardless of what.
so everything was the unfold the way it did, does that mean we will achieve time travel in this time line?

Please Mr.notroleplay give us a sign that you're real

Alright, I'm gonna go ahead and put all this to an end right here.

If your goal is to provide knowledge that would spread sensibly, wouldn't there be a couple hundred better ways to do it than post on a forum littered with beardnecks and roleplayers just itching to get a chance to feel self important?

I dunno, say simply post subtle observations in the presence of an important loudmouth.

But wait, you're not actually making subtle suggestions, you're giving vague directions to a nameless future with no ground or sky for us to tell top from bottom with.

Just admit you're full of shit. You haven't given a solid answer and you've dodged everyone's questions some way or another to avoid direct and sure answers.
No one can time travel. You are not some special snowflake who was /chosen/ by the universe to be granted the impossible just so you can go on 4chan in 2016 and diarrhea post the most useless pathetic posts Ive ever read.
this is the most cancer thread all year so far.

>>17229465
>enlightened
Again, I haven't made a claim like that.

My knowledge is more technical and sociological. I specifically avoid large scale political nonsense because I find that it has very little effect on events.

It's not that everything is relative or anything of the sort, it's simply that 99% of all butterflies don't flap their wings to cause hurricanes on the other side of the world. I don't have the luxury of being in that 99%. To you, politics might seem very real and all encompassing. This is not to say that it's relative or subjective on your part—it IS real to you. I don't bother with politics simply because I don't need to. It's not a butterfly that I can gain something by interacting with. It's more like an old moth attracted to a flame than anything else.

>Is there a working device in the world right now?
Yes, hundreds at the very least. Most of them are wired to private electronics and won't be detected for another 30 years, minimum. They exist solely to observe and record history so that changes can be detected when the information finally integrates.
>How do you make one.
Again, there are hundreds of types of temporal technology. Time travel will eventually change the entire face of electronics. The moment society can see a way to propagate information backwards in time without creating instabilities, it will. Hundreds of thousands of people will be able to gain advance copies of certain media precisely because they have no way to create paradoxes by having it. There isn't a "one" to make here. Most devices deal purely in information transmission, not physical transportation of matter. Active jumping is extremely rare and volatile, so you're more or less on your own with developing that. I seek to advocate for your right to do so because I think the world could use a good kick-start where physical time travel is concerned.

This is 99.999% of all possible futures that extend from this moment. I aim for a fraction of a percent of history.

There was a time traveler on trash a while ago who basically called out every other time traveler as just someone bored at work messing with people from the past. Thoughts?

What decade do most of your physical jumpers end up in?

>>17229477
>are you here to guide someone specific
No. I don't believe in "fate" as such and I think the time stream would be considerably more stable if time travel were public knowledge. My goal isn't to retain history in its current state, but make way for stability regardless of further modifications. People that were already going to work on time travel have no business with me as far as I'm concerned. That has no bearing on my observation or eventual goal.

How to communicate with this era is a problem I've struggled with since I got here. I'd like to think that there's a safe way to speak to people from any era without keeping the mechanics of time travel under lock and key. Not sure what kind of answer you're expecting with a question like that.
>>17229523
If I came from a future that didn't have this thread, I couldn't say I was from this world's future, could I? In this way, I can't claim to be from my own future. In order to be from my own future, I'd need to have permission to travel back to this moment after the thread has finished and intentionally allow it to go exactly as it did the first time around. To affirm the loop would allow my future self to be here, but the present version of me would have to do everything the same despite the presence of my future self. It isn't trivial to complete a tight loop like that without risking the stability of my entire future.
>>17229573
A time traveler makes their own chance.
>>17229696
That's a question for the ages. I usually only work with physical time travel, but I'm not averse to ideas.

I'd say if you have a strong sense of it, it'd be worth pursuing. That doesn't guarantee your safety or yet your sanity, but I'm not getting the impression that you're unstable enough to fall into delusion because of a "strong sense." Risk of delusion affects all forms of time travel anyway, so you wouldn't be the first to suffer a temporary loss in sanity from pursuing this path. My personal advice would be to make sure
>

>>17229696
>>17231022 (cont)
Make sure you never assume any form of success prior to having physically created that success but never assume anything is impossible either. I won't say to doubt yourself, but don't fool yourself either. If anything, the one thing to remember is that there will always be another way. Always. (Time travel is the ultimate form of showing/knowing that.)

I wouldn't know how to go about jumping. It seems dangerous to me because of the paradox potential.

It might be safest to stick to jumping forward. That has its own risks, of course. Remember that every action you take is permanent in the timeline you're going to take it in, so don't just experiment blindly. Keep control of your knowledge and the basis you have for knowing it. Don't do anything you won't be able to measure the effects of for yourself. Never let anyone tell you that you aren't allowed to know.

>>17229799
>How does someone from this time go about protecting themselves?
Be relevant. Nothing stops history from stepping on you like a historical record does. Fortune and fame don't always make you relevant, but making way for a more peaceful future for everyone won't ever go unnoticed. The more people in the future depend on you, the more entangled you'll be with a better future.
>Having a specific plan to protect yourself if you need to?
That can be highly effective and often works well enough as it is, but the moment you have to actually execute your plan, history has a record of what your plan probably is. Secrecy can be an ally here, but it can also be a detriment. The global rule of thumb is that there's nothing you can do that can't be decoded some day, by a dedicated enough attacker. My advice would be to make it so any attacker will easily be seen as the guilty party in the event of an attack. (This also requires making sure you're not the guilty party. Too much preparation can actually prevent your future self from contacting you.)
>cont.

>>17229799
>>17231066 (cont)
>What can I do to protect my other selves?
That's the hard part to accept: You can't. If all your plans only ever came into being because of action you take now as a result of this thread or contact with a time traveler, then your security depends on their having interacted with you. You do not, however, have to rely on *specific* individuals for this "first contact." Any time travel influence is liable to cause any of your alternates to go through that same thought process. Predicting your alternates is a tricky science and there's no good solution to that problem, no matter how much it seems like there ought to be one.
>Do their decisions effect mine?
Not as such, no. The main problem with alternate versions of yourself is that they reveal what you're capable of /when pushed to your limits/. They key thing here is that few people are ever actually pushed to their limits such that their alternates will ever incriminate them. Society doesn't have a real good answer to the reputation problem yet. Part of the reason I wrote the bill of negotiation was to put an end to indiscriminate reputation casting. Until the future gives you the right to coordinate with your alternates, it shouldn't try to nail you down by the collective reputation of all your alternates.

So practically, yes, via timeless reputation, but in an ideal world, no, we won't judge you by them for any reason.

>are we ultimately living until the point of equilibrium?
Not entirely sure what you mean to ask, but yes. Hopefully the point of equilibrium isn't the end of all life. If we die to never invent or use time travel, we can never go back in time to stop ourselves from dying, so it makes for a very solid time loop if and when it happens.
>is this the timeline where ...
No time traveler can ever really say. Doing so runs the risk of reaction.

I don't believe in supposed to. Time travel wouldn't exist if "supposed to" was a property of the world.

Keep in mind that the timeline can diverge at every moment prior to and following this thread. Each bit of time we have is its own duration that could be a timeline in its own right. After the moment passes, multiple timelines could unfold.
>do we actually have any control over any of this?
Yes, to the extent that we bother to have any such control. If we don't care for anything more than the linear life that exists without the use of time travel, so be it. That, in itself, is a choice you can control.
>will happen regardless
Forward time happens regardless of our attempt to control it. It's the one thing nobody can deny in all this. Another way of saying this is that life always goes on, no matter how Earth-shattering the latest events feel.

I'll go with yes. It had to happen once before the future could exist to react to or change it at all.

ultimately, if we were to invent time travel in our timeline and we were able to live until the point of equilibrium, from that point can you go back to the beginning, the origin of our universe/timeline? if you were able to go back to the beginning would you be able to see the creator or meet the creator using the device? let's say the act of time travel was inevitable, then does that mean since the creation of this time line, we had time travelers silently observing every event unfold but with out interfering wether it was good or a bad event, because in not interfering they would allow for the time travel to be discovered at a later time? what is the furthest point a time traveler can come from? or can they just reach end of time and see the cycle from the beginning once again?

The password is embedded in the URL.

I recall saying I'd explain some of the politics, but I don't remember where off hand. The politics of time travel are in semi-constant flux, just as much as present day politics are. If I'm remembering the context correctly, I said that primarily as a threat to the equilibrium of certain anti-historical political organizations. (In this case, it's not possible to be anti-time travel without being anti-history.)

Things seem to have attempted to quiet down a bit since my last thread, so it may not be wise to say too much at this time. Suffice to say my various bills of rights were an attempt to sway the very politics I sought to discuss. When handled well, time travel politics has a way of disappearing very quickly into the timestream.
>>17231003
Until such time as all other nations in all other timelines have accepted such possibilities, I must maintain the stance that such "transcendental" entities are as-of-yet uncaught time travelers who got together to defect as hard as they possibly could for the sake of making time travel public knowledge in every possible timeline.

but that doesn't matter. the way i see it, there's no way out. there's no end or solution. whether you are informed or not is irrelevant because you have no way of knowing if you were "successful" in your efforts until the moment it happens.

now - that may sound fine - you achieved your goal, right? but the reality is that from that point on, your future is once again unknown and prone to problems or errors. this will happen every time and the process is infinite. nothing is ever certain

so why keep reliving past events over and over until you get one thing right, when you could have just lived on to see what the "real" future holds? why is this a better method of living?

i don't need to be informed of possible outcomes. i can pick a goal that i want for myself and work towards it already.

anything bigger than us is pointless. and if the earth truly needed saving, or some other similar nonsense, you wouldn't even exist to go back in the first place

>You won't tell us how to build this machine
There are hundreds of kinds of temporal devices. You really will have to be more specific about which one you mean to build if you want my help on that. From your vantage point it's safe to assume that such things don't exist yet and never will—not in this timeline or any other. Talking here is a means to get them built for the first time in all of human history; past, present, and future as one.
>You won't speak about future events like the elections
I can only speak about them in a predictive capacity. I don't care much for modern politics so I don't have any authority to speak about it. Would you remember the 23rd president offhand without a reason to do so?
>>17231216
>the people who are meant to get your message will receive it
That is how it goes, but there's something to be said for patience as well. Some people do need a bit of a nudge before they'll devote their lives to the study of something that might not ever exist. It's a delicate issue and it's not wrong to use finesse.

Those are some hard questions and I couldn't speak authoritatively about most of them if I had 1000 years to build a reputation. You're dealing with spiritual concepts that commonly exceed what people believe science is able to measure. There is a certain metaphysical element to time travel that I've been careful to ignore for the most part, but the basic answer to your overall question is simply, "Yes."

>what is the furthest point a time traveler can come from?
This is the hardest question a time traveler ever has to answer. It's hard because it acknowledge that humanity has a discrete expiration date. Humanity isn't the type of species to accept its own extinction, so most time travelers that deal with that era tend to think of time travel as a tool for building history rather than modifying it. We create, rather than alter.

>>17231230
>>17231230
you just perfectly described your own existence. projecting your insecurities as always. never change. remain the same.

Is one of the current readers in this thread you?

>>17231216
Good questions though. The end date fluctuates a fair bit in the shifting of history, but it tends to stabilize some time around 300 to 300,000 years from now. It's common to find an empty spot in the vast future and have the entire population jump to there. Overall, ignoring time skips and coordination cloaking maneuvers, humanity tend to last 40,000 years before something starts to eat history. We're good at getting it to 4,000 stabilized years, but we don't have a full map of history just yet. There's an inordinate amount of minor details to account for in an ultimately finite period of time, and such efforts are rarely able to run uninterrupted without global consent for more than 200 effective years.
>>17231225
>how can you be sure that this version of you doesn't?
I can't. All I can do is plan. Should history elect to give me the means to do so, it's likely that I'd find a way to make it entirely safe to do so. There are an unending number of solutions for me to find in a world that allows me the time to find them.

It's possible that my future self will "derail" me the very moment I go to bed tonight. Aside from my willingness to refuse an offer to affirm the loop here there isn't any logical reason for me to believe it's not going to happen. I can only be sure if I decide against it, and even then, my alternates may have other plans. It's not unreasonable to suspect that they have a duty to protect the timeline from this.
>>17231232
>do these realities share the same timeline as waking reality?
I wouldn't personally think so, no. There's nothing to bind them to this chronology.

As to whether time travel is natural or not, I tend to side with humanity on the matter. We're the kind of species whose nature dictates that we'd eventually discover time travel, so I consider it perfectly natural for our species. We can call it unnatural because it's something we discover rather than something that "discovers" us, but I think discovery is in our nature.

>>17231267
>nothing is ever certain
This is incomplete. The ultimate truth you're grasping at is that nothing is ever certain /with forward time/. When you have the capacity to go back in time, you can literally watch reality play out in the same fashion it did the first time around.

Some consider it a blissfully beautiful peace, while others consider it an unnervingly repetitive hell. I'm not sure I can consider it as anything more than what we make it.

>why is this a better method of living?
I wouldn't call it better. Better means nothing until you specify a coherent optimization goal. Some of us find value in it while others don't. It's subjective, like every other possible choice in life.

agree with this

>When you have the capacity to go back in time, you can literally watch reality play out in the same fashion it did the first time around.

don't understand this

so you have the capacity to go back and watch reality play out in identical fashion. simple, right?

however, in this scenario, the time traveler is still experiencing forward time. they themselves have the capacity to then change circumstances and affect outcomes.

therefore, nothing is ever certain.

nothing -can- be certain in a scenario where we are sending a tangible, physical being back in time. the fact that you are interacting with us indicates that you do not know what happens next.

if you decide to put a gun in your mouth right now, you could not have known that would happen prior to making the decision.


my argument is that this uncertainty ultimately makes time travel pointless. we already exist in an uncertain reality without it. this does not change when you go back. you will always have to move forward into the uncharted at some point.

unless you just really want to play life on repeat, like groundhog day. to each their own, i guess.
true time travel can exist in other forms, i think. free will and self awareness invalidate it, but a monitoring device that lacks those traits? sure, it should work.

but that device is not much different than just watching old youtube videos

and who gives a shit about that?

>>17231278

Race war is among the top ten "never again in history" on my future's priority list. Unfortunately, a timeline with such a faction is still inevitable at this time. It's likely that the threat will be removed prior to the fully stable convergence of history, but there will always be evidence that it occurred in at least one timeline.
>>17233698
It's a huge risk. It's just a risk that I've calculated well in advance of this thread. Though my goal is primarily to observe, there are certain factions that desperately want to avoid having anyone watch the events that are about to unfold. Even observation can be a non-benign action, where time travel is concerned. Though my aim will always be peace, I have to recognize that there are threats to my goal of silently observing history. Reacting to them can be dangerous, but it's generally more dangerous to let the threat go entirely unchecked. Sometimes I really do have to protect my ability to observe. Not to say that all my alternates will be able to, but if I can do it in one timeline, it'll be done at least there.
>>17233755
No. The only possibility there would be past versions of my alternates, and I don't consider them to be my actual past.
>>17233848
>the future of this timeline, is it observing the present moment unfold?
There are many futures. Not all of them are watching, but many are.
>and is the future of other timelines also observing the present moment unfold?
Yes, some are. Someone has to keep tabs on this timeline or they'd risk desynchronizing from equilibrium in a highly damaging way.
>when is the safe time for us(the present) to discover time travel?
Never. It will never be safe. Safety is something we create, and until we do, it won't be safe. It'll never be objectively safe, but if we work at it, we can minimize tangential risks.
>is the prototype/blueprint for time travel possible within the next 10 years?
Yes, absolutely. All it takes is the time and effort invested in the research.

Kekliner cannot comprehend my question. As such i know for a fact he is a fake. Ask me anything though. Not that i want to hijack this pretenious BS of a thread but here is the thing. Designers, yes graphic designers, fine artists, computer engineers alike have seen 2D><3D is very real. If anything i should also point out cancer is a form of time distortion. On the one hand you die faster but on the other hand it creates an interactive experience.

>>17233944
but You made a reaction by posting on internet, so it's not just plain observing. I understand by what logic you're trying to avoid giving answers, which would serve as proof for Your claims, but there are many flaws and contradictions.

based on your reasoning you should be safe to "tell/predict" what locations temporal movement begins. it is highly unlikely that it starts out in one area without it branching out in multiple global locations

Is it possible to jump over to another timeline? If so, how can I do it?
Also, what's the difference between a dimension and a timeline?

>>17233944
>It's just a risk that I've calculated well in advance of this thread
so to make calculation You knew the nature of this thread and how it should or will outcome? By that definition You predicted this thread, if that's so, this thread has happened and Your "reaction" or proofs wont impact the future of this time line.

>>17233848
>is it possible for this time line to create/discover a new way of time traveling that's never been done or imagined in any other timeline/reality/universes?
Absolutely. It's what I'm counting on.
>what happens when the first instance of time travel is accomplished on this timeline?
There might not be just one outcome.

Excellent questions. A tactical map of possible outcomes, rather than preexisting outcomes, would help move things along much faster.
>>17233876
>what is your purpose in this timeline?
To silently observe, and generate a movement that ensures my right to do so if my ability to do so should ever fall under threat.
>are you here to ensure that everything goes smoothly and point us in the right direction in reaching equilibrium?
Absolutely. It's my only present goal.
>what is equilibrium, to the present?
Continued existence and minimal intervention.
>what is equilibrium, to the future?
A very complex series of equations that preserve the very fabric of space and time (in the given timeline). Basically it's a map of the past, and a series of protocols to follow when visiting the it.
>does anything need to be changed in order to reach equilibrium?
That's a good question. I don't think so, personally, but I don't have history entirely memorized. It will always be possible to create an alternate version of this timeline that needs a bit of fixing.
>we don't need to worry about the past in this timeline and only the present and onward
That's generally the safest philosophy to follow, even when it's not technically the case. Suffice to say that equilibrium needs to be maintained, whether it be through action or inaction. The past is a complex place, and the future can be twice as complex even without history modification.
>>17233913
Not at this time, no. Direct evidence would change the nature of this thread into something I'm not yet prepared to handle or predict.
>>17233988
It's calculated observation, with equilibrium disruption in mind.

Gonna be generous tonight. Here is the basic formula for time travel: IF 3D>=<2D THEN 2D<>3D. Also for the machine you need organic matter, yes feces, urine, Non organic matter like Uranium, aluminium, NO magnets or electricity thats ütter büllshít.

>>17230580
They give CPR dummies penises?!

if I were to dedicate my whole life in inventing/discovering/imagining/manifesting a method of time travel that has never been attempted in any version of history, would it be a worthy and righteous path in order for the present timeline in reaching a equilibrium state/future?

if I were to dedicate my life to discovering a way to time travel, should I tell any of my friends, family, or any other beings?
or just keep it on the downlow until I have created a way to do it?

most importantly if I were to believe that it was possible in my life time to achieve it, would I actually be able to achieve it? because I want to believe/trust in my self and my intuitions, but at the same time i don't want to fool my self either and waste my precious present moment/life for a thing that might never even happen in my lifetime. but also I could lay down the foundation or make the blueprint so the future could use it.

>>17233990
>you should be safe to "tell/predict" what locations temporal movement begins
I'm safe, sure, but their safety is another matter entirely. I'm not trying to start a war here.
>>17233996
>Is it possible to jump over to another timeline?
Yes. It requires jumping to the past, steering history in the direction you want to travel, and jumping back to the future. If you can locate the portal that originally caused the divergence, you can opt to use that portal instead of recreating the original changes. Through recursive iteration of this process, you can travel very far from your original timeline.
>what's the difference between a dimension and a timeline?
I think of dimensions are entirely separate places, like Alice's Wonderland. Timelines are separate in a way that preserves history, such that some things are different, but most of it is the same.

Traveling chronologically isn't the same as travel in a spacial direction.
>>17234024
Effectively, yes. I can choose to defect at any time and for any reason, and so my reactions, and the future along with them, would change. Only my desire to stick to the plan can keep the plan in effect in any way.
>>17234050
All the wrong ones, I assure you. All the wrong ones.
>>17234062
I'm not in a "fixing" position. History needs me to observe silently much more than it needs me to be the one that proves time travel. My job is to note, but never act on, temporal information.

This is not to say that my job won't change some time soon. Observation is not without its own special class of risks, and there are certain events that would force me to change my behavior in any timeline that I bore witness to them in.
>>17234067
That could actually turn out pretty decently. I'll make that the primary goal of the next thread until further notice.
>>17234088
Absolutely. The question is whether or not you actually would, but yes, it's definitely possible.

Somebody has studied their Talmud or whatever!

>>17234141
You know that time travel is going to be invented by someone else at some point in this timeline so why hold it from us? Why not take some of us under your wing teach us how to use it properly and then we just pass down in secrecy until we have an army of time knights who could enforce time travel that you already know need to be in place.

>>17234141
>>17234161
Time travel laws that need to be in place. Sorry typo

>>17234099
You're right that you'll travel back to every possible reaction to your own attempt to travel back in time.

In some cases though, you'll travel back to a world that has a possible reaction of no reaction. Those are the fun ones.
>>17234115
>would it be a worthy and righteous path
Provided you can assure that your device/method will create and/or maintain equilibrium, yes, yes it would be worthy. Usually you'll suffer some form of attempt at intervention when you choose that path. 99.999999% of all people that succeed will be able to create and maintain equilibrium simply because they managed to create a uniquely new device. It's not a trivial undertaking, but you know that already.

I can't answer whether or not it'd be safe to talk about it with friends and family. It depends mostly on the nature of the device you're creating. You're the only person that can unequivocally know how people will react to the existence of your device. It really is up to you how people will think to use it.

Your "blueprint" philosophy is a very good one. It's true that some inventors of temporal technology never did see their invention personally, but did successfully design one. I'd say it's worth as much f your time as you can invest in it without going bonkers. If you only end up spending six months working on it, that's still worth it in my book.
>>17234161
The hard problem there is taking someone under my wing. I've chosen to use 4chan for public dissemination of temporal information, so there's a very real risk of having any anon I work with disappear on me. I don't want to endanger anyone else for the sake of my silent observation. But you do raise a valid point in that time travel needs to happen in order for my time/effort observing to mean anything.

Theres plenty of people who would be willing to risk their lives to protect time, many people have gave their lives for less.

>>17234197
That's 98% of what I want to hear. Unfortunately, I do aim for the narrow distinction between 'maintain equilibrium' and 'allow for physical time travel.' The timestream suffers natural protection in spades for the most part. I aim for laxer, more reasonable law to protect our ability to use it freely. Sometimes it takes some noise to get the timestream flowing. It is protection that I desire, but only in a very specific and balanced way. Too much protection of the timeline at the expense of the rights of the people inside that timeline will only create horrible tangents of history that need to fix those problems all over again. Maintaining equilibrium, protecting history, and ensuring equal rights for the past and future peoples alike are three separate problems. I want to protect our alternates more than anything.

>>17234241
Why did you choose to protect this timeline? There has to be an infinite amount of other timelines

>>17234250
This is where history landed me when I did nothing to change history. You could say this is the most organic place in history for me. It takes discipline to ignore reality because otherwise you'll end up in the first timeline you come across with no hope of rescue precisely because having no hope of rescue causes you to treat your jump point as the place you'll have to live from now on. You have to be willing to let history play itself out, with all its turmoils fully intact if you want to get to the root of all origins. Observation becomes exponentially harder the longer the period you wish to observe.

That's amazing timebro

>>17234337
Have you experienced timelines of peaceful contact with extraterrestrial beings?

Back in 2007 I clearly saw a post about an alleged time traveler that was quickly dismissed on /b/. The localization gave by his attached picture with the exif data geo coordinates was the middle the pacific ocean.
While this was said that it could have been edited, what has made me go wtf last year was that he had an apple iwatch. And I clearly remember him saying that this was an iwatch that would arrive in a couple of years.

Last year the iwatch arrived on the market.

>>17234369

In one timeline extraterrestrial beings come on Earth during the Middle Ages, in the Near East. People welcomed them peacefully and both societies integrated well, giving birth to a prosperous civilization who lasted until year 2054, in which a major war occurred.

>>17234373
OP only said hes been watching us since 2014

>>17234328
Learn physics. Ignore quantum mechanics and go back to Einstein's era. Think about how every new civilization that invents time travel has advantages in derailing the past with wrong belief systems. To see the quantum entangled debacles in the light of a time traveler's information observation paradoxes is entirely optional, but can be key to realizing the structure of temporal physics. You have to see not just behind the curtain cast by the future, but past the curtain cast by every future that would've been created if the future you would've created in seeing the structure behind the curtain had come to pass.

You have to not only see the future, but see yours in a way that allows you to experience it without a hint of deviation from each of your alternates. It's a significant undertaking that'll be fraught with many attempts to cause some kind of deviation in time.

Suppose it takes you a year to learn time travel, if you start right now. Suppose it then takes you three weeks to build the device. At that point in time, where does your future self jump back to to prove to every possible version of himself that it worked?

It is entirely possible that you'll make the wrong decision in your future and never observe the proof that you yourself set out to make.

There is no ultimate "first step." All the pieces of the puzzle of the future have to fit in exactly the right positions or your proof loop will never complete, converge, or reaffirm itself. Physics is quite literally the least of your worries here.

The "first" step is to stop associating things as "first" or "next" or "last." Timeless reasoning is a must in this field. Doubt isn't just the enemy here; it is as lethal as confidence. Time loops are fickle creatures.
>>17234332
I certainly hope so, but no. The future doesn't get quite that extravagant.

>>17234485

By necessity, no. If you were a result of modifications to the timeline as a result of this thread, I'd have no way to detect that in advance. I can only defer to my future in that regard.
>>17234513
Preferably you'd call them upcoming because you should speak the dialect of the target era rather than the dialect of a region in history that has yet to exist at this point in time.
>>17234514
Not as such, no, but the use of distant temporal coordinates can create the appearance of pocket dimensions. It can, given enough time to set it up, be larger on the inside.

It's hard to say without meeting somehow. There are things that happen naturally that can appear as temporal manipulation to the ignorant and there are things that are undoubtedly artificial that can seem entirely innocuous and natural. My goal with the equilibrium philosophy is to create a way to remain stable despite any possible modifications to your personal timeline.

It's not uncommon for digital evidence to disappear.

History can often appear as if it's set in stone, but you have to remember that once a moment passes, it's gone.
>>17234577
It'll do that, too. As much as things more towards realism and photographic replication of reality, it'll also move just as much in the opposite direction. Cartoon styles get more diverse and creative. Art tends to try to make itself as diverse as possible and technology plays a large role in creating new modes of artistic expression.
>>17234582
No. Not at this time. Not for me, anyway. I doubt my future self will have time or permission for the jumps it'd take to come back to this moment. Try to think in terms of creating opportunities for such jumps rather than trying to get them to happen as soon as possible. Give the future options, not an ultimatum.
>>17234598
>if im in a time loop
If you don't know whether or not you're in a time loop, it's safe to say that you're not in a time loop. You might be engaged in causal parasitism, but that's not a way to make a stable loop. Unstable loops aren't called loops because they aren't real loops. As I said, I don't have any temporal tech on me right now, so no extracausal detection here.

>>17234042

if this is true, then it retains the the realm of possibility to escape, and live lives in other worlds, of a spiritual or extraterrestrial nature, and then return to the previous life with that extraneous knowledge, although have no way of determining precisely, if you are in a loop where you are able to escape, or a loop where you are merely returning continuously.

could you tell me if I'm fictional?
or if god is a jerk.
or if fictional is real, so that he isn't.

Shoot, so it turns out this is actually a pretty challenging problem. It's trivial to solve in a post-reputation society, but this thread was made for the modern era so it needs a local solution. If I can't deliver a decent answer by tomorrow, I'll create a thread in two weeks with the best solution I can design.

This thread is very interesting. I've read a lot of the replies all the way up and down, but it's possible I could have missed the answers to my questions:

As a physical entity, are you damaged in any way/shape/form when jumping/traveling?

In examples from fictional movies and ideas, would time travel or teleportation work my creating a copy or "clone" of yourself, living on with the memories and experiences of your previous being? If that's the case, who's to say we're the same person? Would it be like dying and resurrecting from the dead?

I don't doubt you like others in this thread; hell, I may be the one you're trying to get a hold of.

Thinking in terms of being used isn't how great men are made. Make your life get better, don't expect a savior.
>>17234726
No. People aren't actually trying to make races mix on the scale you're imagining. Sometimes the bloodlines need to be rearranged to build empathy between future nations so that negotiation can lead to peace, but that practice happens exactly once when it happens. There's no constant faction that seeks towards that goal in perpetuity. Most of futures that we work with don't care about race at all.
>>17234760
>what if [...] its impossible
Then you're not asking a real question.
>everyone knows
In which timeline? Keep in mind that knowing the future allows one to disrupt that same future. How we learn depends entirely on which timeline we're in and how the future judges certain types of knowledge. Sometimes suppression happens. It's not useful for the past, but the past is rarely given any rights in such disputes.

1. You're not fictional.
2. "God" is often a royal jerk.
3. Fiction wouldn't be fiction if it was real.
4. It's safe to say you've been tampered with if this is how you actually think.
5. If you don't choose to reaffirm it, it isn't a time loop. By definition.

>>17234818
It's not like I came here with a USB stick full of all the information /x/ would want to download from the future, nor have I memorized dozens of different schematics for the sake of recreating them in MS Paint. Time travel isn't the same as omniscience. Not the way I use it, anyhow.

The link is given twice, in two different forms. One has the password URL encoded after the hash sign (#) and the other has it URL encoded after the question mark. I intentionally created a semantic difference between the two URLs for the sake of advanced tracking protocols.
>>17234946
>how long do you plan on staying in this timeline?
Indefinitely. Observation requires being present for the entire duration of the given time period.

>>17234946
>where would you go back to? what timeline? what country?
I'd like to remain in the US if they ever figure out how to negotiate peacefully. My second choice would probably be Australia for no particular reason. I honestly don't care about which timeline; my goals exist in a timeless state that's designed to be compatible with any version of history. 2100 is my usual suggestion for a forward jump date. Any time in that century with a bias towards the earliest possible decade.
>would you take anyone with you if you were to find the right candidate from this present to time travel?
Absolutely. For me, time travel is a "the more the merrier" type deal. I know most rewards systems designed for use with organized time travel society rapidly converge on having a strong pull to coming home as soon as possible, but that's really just a way of mistrusting each individual equally. Gaming rewards systems becomes silently common when that happens: Everyone does it, but nobody says how or why. It's a false form of public awareness. No real coordination in a "society" like that.

/x/ tends to be full of the right sorts of candidates.
>>17234975
Yes, but it's a lot less impressive than the movie makes it out to be. It can be a decent way to hide your motives and TDT, but it's not looked upon as kindly as you might want to believe.
>>17235009
Three words: Low hanging fruit.
>>17235046
This.
>>17235039
I'm sure there will be attempts to diverge the timeline this year, but they're not likely to create any sort of stable reaction in time. Personally, I hold that December 13th, 2020 is the earliest safe Open Contact date.
>>17235089
>As a physical entity, are you damaged in any way/shape/form when jumping/traveling?
Not if the gate's been stabilized, no. Punching a hole through time and space has never been the image of ease of access and public safety. It takes some cautious engineering to get it done. No cloning is involved in the act itself. Not inherently, anyway.

>>17236136

Ice on the rim.

I have done a lot of research on time travel and I have come to the conclusion that time travel could only exist if the "machine" was a constant. So you would only be able to travel back to when the machine was first built. Kind of like it records time and can rewind you to the point you wish. Is this correct?

Duuude, just now at work the notion of time travel came up as a discussion. And I asked the question:

"What if the past is just as malleable as the future?"

Most of my friends thought I was an idiot or didn't care to give the question much thought. I however had a thirst to know... And now here you are adressing me on it. I take it as a sign and I thank you for it.

So I had the idea that if someone could trace back time to the beginning then mathematically you could predict the future. Any thoughts on this line of logic?

>>17236320

>Most of my friends thought I was an idiot or didn't care to give the question much thought

...I could also smash your skull in until you have memory loss and give you a fake textbook

I can literally hear spaghetti plop down by the tonne.

ikr, still gotta thank him for making me feel like finishing that awkwardly long weeb novel, steindo;gate (stuck at 80%) and actuallybecoming a realtripfag.

So let's just say that theoretically in a bunch of different timelines there is a version of me. That version has consciousness.

What does that say about consciousness?

What is the strangest timeline you have been to?

Do you visit yourself in other timelines?

Do you visit your parents or dead versions of yourself?

Can you go back to the original timeline you jumped from?

How are different timelines labeled or differentiated from one another? Is there a label or one for this timeline?

Do you feel sad that you will not be able to see your parents or friends or relatives or people you knew from the timeline you jumped from?

Do time travelers interact with aliens and UFO's? Do they know you are time traveling?

Are aliens actually time travelers?

What are some things that were prevented from happening in this timeline?

Anything special about 2012?

Ever meet another time traveler?

>>17236676
We are all travelling forward in time. In a sense we are all time travellers, humans and animals alike. Take a pebble for instance. Lets say you throw it away but it will always land somehwere regardless of where you have thrown it. Lets say it hits an old lady's head and she dies. Its as simple as that.

Well its been a fun read, op. The thread is getting too populated and has carried on too long for my liking now.
You really convinced some actual people with zero evidence, proof, hints, or even predictions. You made this thread without a shred of credibility and stuck without it through 250+ reply's and still managed to get legit questions from people who might actually believe you.
You trolled well, many keks were had

>>17228599
Wise question my friend, very underrated.

What faggot OP and most ITT haven't realised is that you cannot create a "machine" that will propel you through "time". It's physics 101. How da fuck can you create a mechanical metal box that can "reverse" time, without itself being ripped apart and put back together in a previous state? Nevermind the fact that "time" is not a linear traversable dimension like in the movies.

There is no going back to a previous state, machine or not. The past doesn't exist. The concept of past is merely your brain remembering a previous state of existence, you can't actually "go" there. It's not a place.

OP, I'm a little late, but I have some questions.

As far as I am aware, there are only two time travelers in existence, everywhere throughout time, and whenever I see someone else talking about it, I always have to check with them, see if there are others.

My first question is in regards to your explanation that 2016 is the year of time travel development.
My question is: why tell such a blatant lie?
Are you hoping to draw the attention of someone who actually knows when it was perfected?
Are you trying in some vain attempt to protect these people from riding a change ripple?
Even if you are, you should know that according to the Truvinsingt/Merchant model, you're not going to violate causality.
There's only one way to actually pull that off, and I'm the only one who's ever done it.

My second question is in simple regards to your understanding of history:
What can you tell me about 2039, 2046, 2119, and 2432?

My mind was once flown through time to a man who had just discovered or created working time travel.

He was a white guy, probably in his 50s with glasses, and was bald on his head (badly receading). He was possibly surprised that I was there, but it was VERY powerful. Similar to times I had connected to otherworldly consciousnesses.

Who the hell was this guy OP?

>>17228409
Forward time travel is very possible.

Time dilation and heavy gravity warping spacetime (orbiting a black hole) allowing you to slow down your aging

The real trick is travelling back in time.

>>17241009
I'm not OP,
but if he was French, then it sounds an awful lot like Alexander Truvinsingt.
Although, he didn't invent time travel per se, he worked with Christina Merchant to create a model for the universe that explained phenomena, and opened the gateway to time travel research.
If you've had experiences where you've actually seen this, I'd love to get in contact with you.

>>17241014
Quantum Disobservation is the method through which my time machine is able to freely "move" about through time.

>>17241023
I was asleep at the time.

I remember coming out of the portal, and my awareness growing massive as it entered the new room or area I was in.

It was like waking up and feeling your mind grow accustomed to the new area you are in but amplified 50 times, and very, very sudden.

I remember the portal was red/black when leaving it, but while I was travelling through it, it was like travelling through a pin hole.

I believe the room I entered was brick, and I do remember some science machinery type stuff, but I was only there for a few a moments. He saw me, was suprised and upset and the thought sliced through my mind like a knife through butter (it wasnt from in my own mind, it was like it was being projected in me) that THIS was the first successful time travel event.

It felt like a ridiculously strong mushroom trip.

Ive had weird dreams, and sleep paralysis before, but the only time I ever felt anything similar to this was a time I was standing in a bowl of light in my dreams and a disembodied voice spoke to me clear as day. The voice was incredibly powerful, the vibrations were so clear. Now it wasnt the same, but its the only reference point or event in my life I have to compare it to.

I know all this info probably wont help you, but this has bugged me for awhile. It felt like getting sucked through a vacuum.

>>17228409
Assuming this is a physical transference, under some kind of guidance, would it be possible to construct a beacon for the purposes of hitchhiking?

>>17241047
I don't believe that when traveling through time, there are any red and black portals.
Although, perhaps a feeling of being in a vacuum may be comparable without a vessel like my machine, it's impossible to induce time travel on something outside of the disobservation field, in other words, you can't make someone else time travel. Perhaps though, the pin hole metaphor may be more applicable than you realize.
Either way, Dr. Truvinsingt's personal laboratory isn't made of brick. His old university's server room, which was the first location in which he worked with Dr. Merchant, was carpeted and had reddish walls, but not brick.
So I'm sorry to say, it seems like you just had a really vivid dream.

>>17241062
>reddish walls
That could have bee nit. It happened very quickly, and the most distinc part of the memory is the man himself.

Im pretty sure he was upset, he wasnt expecting me. I remember red walls though, could be why I thought brick?

Ahh well, who knows.
