I kind of have to agree with this, if you impact anything too heavily you won't get back to the world you knew.

You'd almost definitely get hacked up and burned if you used you scientific knowledge.

Even if the time laws say you can't change the present by going back in time. I would still want that immortality part to go into the future. The past is cool you might be able to do some cool things with the ignorant people over the centuries, but I want more than anything to find out humanities future. Something we know even less about than ancient Rome.

I want to watch the first Interstellar transport ship blow up, then catch a ride on the third or fourth one after they have ironed out the kinks and have a decent colony over in (probably) Alpha Centauri.

Because I am not a history major. I don't know where shit is going down and when outside of really big shit. What I do know, though, is that certain companies will make it big and that I can make a lot of profit from it. Standing out before then means being written into the history books and being photographed and documented. This leads to some silly shit you won't want when people are trying to dissect you. Instead I will be essentially nonexistent until I can strike, then fade away again and "die" so my "son" who looks startlingly similar to me can "inherit" my fortune. You feel me?

My first priority would be not attracting attention. The last thing I need is someone noticing I haven't aged in the last hundred years and beheading me.

Beyond that I'd realistically just try to keep whatever business enterprises I own afloat and take care of my family while trying my best to prepare for the eventual collapse of the Empire. Possibly move to the ERE before the split, although you can bet I'd get the fuck out of Byzantium before the kebabs took it. Basically I'd just move to wherever was going to be the most stable and prosperous part of the world in time to benefit from better conditions there (Poland during the black death, England during the Napoleonic wars, etc), since for the most part my specific knowledge of historical events and so on wouldn't do me much good I'd only really benefit from big picture stuff. As for inventing technology before its time that's pretty much a lost cause. There are a few low hanging fruits here and there but for the most part you need a very comprehensive knowledge of engineering, metalurgy, chemistry, etc before you can realistically create anything useful 'ahead of time' without the commensurate civilizational advances to back you up.

>>49053430
I mean I don't doubt that you have a clear enough grasp of calculus especially with perfect recall to jump start that, but somehow I don't think right now you have a clear enough understanding of the other three to just casually do that.
Still, I suppose with the money you could find good engineers and explain your "ideas" to them, help them figure it out. Medicine's going to have to wait though until you can start proving to people that sickness is actually the body fighting back against tiny creatures most of the time. You'll probably have a great hootin' time with that, if they don't instantly flag you as a crazy person.

Also:
>Either Jesus was for real, or not
>If he was for real, God would see you're fucking up his plans left and right, and would introduce Jesus differently at a different time, or simply strike you down when you stand
>If he wasn't, you'd have already fucked over the course of Roman history by that point that Nazareth would be very different

>You could also "just" prevent the fall of the Roman Empire, make them prepare for the barbaric hordes, maintain their consul system and stop Christianity's fragmentation because of the Byzantine/Roman breakup.
>Roman Republic never falls apart
>All the lands held by their Christian dominion is never lost and forgotten
>No reason to wage holy wars reclaiming any of it

If you don't manage to do it, you can still just cut your losses, hide for a few decades in obscurity, and then return and continue your work in a different direction.

>>49053496
>I can make a lightbulb work
Can you also create all the materials neccessary for the lightbulb, using nothing but the materials and tools available for the pre-Imperial Roman Republic?

While I probably wouldn't be able to just casually do the plumbing and metallurgy, I do have a fairly solid base to start the whole "Modern medicine" thing.

And when I say that, I don't mean like surgery, (because modern surgeons are really only better at closing people up), I mean more like basic standards of hygiene. The simple shit that I could explain, and prove even. The first microscope was just two lenses and a metal tube. Get the spacing right (with the physics that I know), and voila, the tiny little creatures are visible!

And even after that I know how to suture a wound, set bones, and fight some of the more common diseases. With that knowledge, all that time, and a lack of the ethical restrictions we have these days, I'm fairly confident in my ability to jumpstart medicine.

But yeah, leave metallurgy to the others. When they get that down, we can move onto more complex machines.

>>49053608

Plant the seed of the scientific method and rigorous mathematics into their heads, as well as writing down some of the big stuff I remember from the future.

Beyond that, I'd try to help advance Rome and get its logistics and bureaucracy up to snuff, hopefully avoiding its collapse.

Take 1000 people. Of 500 of them have them ingest the saliva of perfectly healthy people both orally and nasally; of the other 500, have them do the same with sick people.

You forget a crucial part:
You have Wolverine's regenerative ability.
I'm not sure if the common cold's going to kick it with you, plus by this time there's a good chance people would have already figured out something is weird about you, so they'd just write you off as a medical anomaly, if not more.

And if you get someone else to get sick, they may be more inclined to think you're practicing some sort of witchcraft, than that there exists living organisms so small.
I mean sure, the ancient greek philosophers proposed the existence of atoms, but it's different to propose something's existence and discuss it in a circle of like minded individuals, and to just show up with amazing arcane knowledge and start making people sick seemingly at will with a few rituals that seem harmless, like feeding them specially prepared meals that could have a curse on them.

You'd really need to be careful who you start with, is what I'm saying.
Christianity might be what provided the Inquisitions, but it was human superstition that justified its existence.

Even in medieval europe the church didn't shit on you the second you did anything innovative.

And if he says that it's all true then I'll be in a good position to not fuck it up.I cannot lose.

But I'm a big guy. Tall, broad shouldered, all that good shit. At some point during my new life i'll find out that I have healing factor, and I can join the Roman army and accrue the years of service necessary for a leadership position.

After that, you might well ask what the next step is.

Well, folks, this is where I differ from y'all, I guess. I don't have some grand master plan. I want to change history just enough that it takes a different path and I can be there to see it unfold differently.

To be fair, an eventual plague related genocide is GOING to happen to the Natives, one way or another. If you arrive with your knowledge of inoculation and vaccination, you could easily slow the horrifying death rate by passing that knowledge along, after using it to help immunize anyone you encounter.

>>49054613
True, but I'd prefer to have the outbreak that >>49054621 mentions out of the way long before the Conquistadors show up.

>>49054610

Have you ever seen a tesla coil in operation? Tell me that isn't harnessed lightning.

The electrons that are powering your computer are the same kind that some thundering out of the heavens, just arranged in a more orderly fashion.

Also, lightning rods are a form of harnessing lightning. Keeps it from smacking your nice house and blowing a hole in it or setting it on fire.

>>49054638
Okay, clearly we're using two completely different definitions of "harnessing".

Tesla Coils create artificial lightning, and creating a path of lesser resistance for lightning than your house, is not using the lightning, but giving it a way to expend itself without destryoing your property.

Also to be clear:
Lightning =/= Electricity. It's as much equal to electricity, as a waterfall is equal to the concept of water itself.
You can't just take lightning and casually re-purpose it. It would need a machine of incredible properties and materials of amazing conductivity to reliably do that.
Lightning is easily the least effective way of producing electricity. It'd be like trying to harness wind energy with a machine that only functions in the presence of a tornado.

>>49054689

You seem to misunderstand my metaphor here. While I am not talking about literally using lightning to power their eventual machinery, your point about a tesla sphere still stands. It would be an arching ball of lightning, spewing in every direction until something come close enough to strike it. To a Roman at that time, it would appear for all intents and purposes that I have harnessed the power of lightning, if on a small scale.

A lightning bolt and a static discharge are the exact same thing, just on VASTLY different scales.

>>49054549
>Use knowledge of mechanical engineering to construct a simple steam engine.
Greeks did that already. They just never found worthwile use for it.
You'd be hard pressed to convince romans either since slavery is just easier and I don't believe you have the know how of constructing a steam engine that performs a task better than a slave.

>>49054742
Surely that could be figured out, even if it takes a few hundred years.

>>49054742

Bar in mind the Greek design was a ball with two tubes sticking out the side that spun when heated, and nothing else. If you could build a rudimentary steam engine that powered a wagon down the road, you'd have a completely different view on the subject.

And while I don't know how to build one from scratch, I know the basics behind how it operates. All a matter of building up from previous models, until I have the desired model.

I do live in a wealthy plebian house hold, I have access to fairly large sums of money, and if I can create something that, say, uses the bath house's own fire to operate a pump to keep water flowing through the bath at a decent pace, helping keep the water clean and creating a nice whirlpool effect for the bathers, maybe even create a lazy river for them to enjoy. The nobles would gobble that shit up.

How does that even follow? If you're comparing a messianic salvation religion to discoveries or technological invention, then sure, they pop up all the time.
None have been so successful as Christianity, so I'm not to worried about others getting started.

Unless you want to dedicate your life (which will probably become a lot shorter) to killing young prophets then there is no certainty that you'll even stop an Abrahamic religion emerging, possibly even worse than any seen now.

>>49057170
>making Africa less shit
Possibly causing it to develop into a direction where it eventually won't be exploited the fuck out of during colonialism and thus being more widely on the same level of technology and living as "civilised" world?
World would turn out to be a completely different place, not to mention even before the original era of colonialism there being the possibility of some African empire expanding and having an effect on the middle east or europe.

>>49057170
>keeping Rome strong and intact
Because it's solely technological stagnancy and Christianity that killed it.

Any way, what I meant was trying to stop all that by killing Jesus. No plan beyond that or care for repercussions.

>>49057248
New tech will certainly help them repair their bureaucracy and fight off the barbarians, but you're right, it's not the only factor.

>Any way, what I meant was trying to stop all that by killing Jesus. No plan beyond that or care for repercussions.
Roman Polytheism continues to be a thing, and it could probably be shaped over time to a very productive and useful religion, without the downsides of Christianity.

The people will love them as they kill their sons.

And still the plan still relies too much on some deluded fantasy that you can fix everything and people will obey you.

The alternative is you barely get steam power out of the Romans by collaborating with Hero and then the Roman economy collapses due to the loss to the slave trade, the Barbarians exploit this for captives and the Middle east becomes a hot bed of fundamentalism far sooner as the brutal Roman occupation takes its toll.

I have 200 years to prove that I'm immortal, come from the future, have useful knowledge, and that I'm willing to help them; that's more than enough time.

>The alternative is you barely get steam power out of the Romans by collaborating with Hero and then the Roman economy collapses due to the loss to the slave trade
Last I checked, economies don't collapse because of new technologies :^)
Industries, perhaps, but not economies.

>brutal Roman occupation takes its toll.
Killing/imprisoning anyone who say they're the son of God is hardly a brutal occupation; as far as I'm concerned, the rest of the population can go about their lives as they please.

Because there is a gradual progression, there is a reason why Africa got fucked over so bad by Colonialism, everything that was left was unsustainable by the local population. Not to mention you're liable to get murdered for threatening the slave trade, which in turn threatens the Roman military industrial complex which then threatens the Pax Romana.

As for the 200 years to prove you're immortal. Are you sure they won't just kill you after figuring this out? Would they worship you instead sparking a civil war? By all definitions you'd be as a monster or a god to them.

And finally not every prophet claims to be the son of god, hell the definition you give there wouldn't even cover Scientology, Mormonism or Islam.

That's because the Africans were litterally too dumb and uncivilized to use what the Europeans had left them; I have a fair bit higher expectation of the Romans.

>Not to mention you're liable to get murdered for threatening the slave trade
Slaves can still shovel coal and charcoal; so long as Roman industrial capacity increases, there won't be a shortage of menial labor and the like for slaves.

Hopefully by that point I can get them to soften their perspective on slavery.

No but seriously, I sign a contract to do some time as a gladiator, then I retire and live quietly somewhere out in the country. Once banking becomes a thing, I get in on that. Every few decades, I fake my own death, leaving the majority of my wealth to various charities and organizations, and a small portion to my new identity. I take the money and assets I left to myself, and move elsewhere.

please, as a historian this makes my bones tingle. Egypt was a diverse country, but it was only ruled by a dark skinned (Nubian) dynasty for about 30 years. It was one of the last dynasties, so they lived closer to the founding of pizza hut than the founding of great piramids. The other dynasties where nonwhite, but definitely not dark-skinned/sub-saharan.

But, literally, you are somewhat right. Egyptians used slaves from all over the world in their projects

Use all the spare time I have to get used to being able to sustain horrible injuries and learn how to politics, then start making a secret order who believes me to be a gift from the gods. Rome was much more scientifically tolerant thanks to the greeks so I should be able to make at least a few rudimentary technologies. Start subverting religions using my modern day knowledge of science and my own personal powers paired with years of experience learning to be both a fighter and a statesman.

When sickness strikes, I make cures from moldy food, when hunger strikes, I am the benevolent leader who uses my mind and my unique abilities as a negotiator to ensure few suffer. When the emperor of Rome fears me I would go to him and tell him I have not been sent by the gods to rule rome, merely to ensure it lasts. After all, I have all the time in the world to claim power and I'd rather have at least a lifetime behind me before I do so.

The future I would forge would hopefully be for the better. The dark ages being all but eradicated after I show people that "boiling water kills the evils hiding within, for that is why tartarus is filled with fire and water". I also believe I will look for those who have become clever and created great works of science and art and I will do what I can in the background to cushion the bad and improve on the good. I sit on a computer now because I am bored, ordinary, and becoming great is hard in this time. But back then, the average person in this time would have unheard of advantages in health and knowledge compared to them and the extra powers are quite possibly enough to make you the god emperor of mankind should you wish it.

Try to read a book for once.

The infrastructure in place was only usable to bring ressources out of the country, nothing else, not of much use for anything else.

The newly independent countries had to pay the old colonial overlords hefty sums for said infrastructure, meant that said ex-colonies started with a shitload of debt.

The ex-overlords keep tabs on their ex-colonies to get shit for cheap as always.
If a leader pops up that wants to sell shit for the regular market value so he can build up the country, he gets killed and replaced by some dick wo does not care as long as he gets rich.
That was pretty much the main job of the foreign legion after the french pulled out.

The ex-overlords ruled by playing religious or ethnic groups against each other, one side got wealthy but hated by the other side, thus needed to cooperate with the overlord.

Anon, the aim of the war was "nation building", which basically segued into letting a brutal, dictatorial and corrupt regime mooch off the US forever while the limited bombing campaigns had about as much of a discernable effect as gun ownership has on crime and unlimited bombing runs or a solid invasion weren't in the cards on grounds of geopolitics.

And let's not forget that the North was fighting to free their country from a foreign-backed dictatorship the whole time.

>implying we deny fucking over the injuns

>implying the bombs weren't entirely justified
They didn't even register on the Japanese's agenda because the death toll wasn't out of line with what they got from every firebombing raid. They did start the nuclear arms race with the Russians though.

>implying dunecoons killing each other isn't the best use of federal tax dollars

That story is kind of dead already, what with the stories of constant indian raids.

No shit it did something for the US economy, otherwise it wouldn't have been so profitable. Blacks still don't get credit for it.

>They didn't even register on the Japanese's agenda because the death toll wasn't out of line with what they got from every firebombing raid. They did start the nuclear arms race with the Russians though.
Then they were as justified as firebombing, except that we needed only a single plane to fuck up their city.

Once again, the bombs didn't do that. They were not relevant militarily as far as the Japanese were concerned because they didn't kill and wound any more or less people than the firebombings. Plus Japan was pretty close to where Best Korea was during the 50s - at nothing worth being bombed left standing above ground.

The surrender came about because the Japanese lost any chance to win a more favourable peace treaty through Russian mediation the moment Stalin started rolling through Manchuria and they only surrendered because the people in the US government who wanted to offer them an acceptable deal (meaning a guarantee that the Emperor gets to stay) won out before the Russians had landed on Hokkaido and made it all the way to Honshu.

The spiel about the bomb was just them saving face the same way the Germans are saving face by claiming that killing six million humans made them THE BEST AT BEING GOOD PEOPLE and the Americans claiming that they save Japan from being split along with a lot of US servicemen's life. It's the sort of lies it takes to hold a country together and to hold your head up high at international meetings.

You're dumb. The siege was the period between the two invasions, which was predicted to hit children and the sick, but do little to nothing to inconvenience Saddam and his inner circle. The mistakes made after the second invasion were of a completely different nature.

>>49064018
I don't think you get his point.
You appear in 200 B.C.'s Roman Republic.
The Roman Empire won't come to be for over 170 years (140, if you include Caesar's rule).

Just because time travel was involved won't magically give 200 B.C. a completely different history.
You might manage to jump start the Roman Empire somehow, but it's highly unlikely.

Point is, in the location you're going to, there is no single universal ruler you can piss off.
It's a republic, not a monarchy.

inscribe memes everywhere I went
specifically, I'd be making allusions to a "Trump" and the year 2016, with "Hillary" opposite him, being depicted as evil.

Other than that, gather up everything valuable I can: gold coins, trinkets of archaeological value, etc. and keep it safe and sell it as time goes on.

continue in this fashion until the golden age of pirates, at which point
OH BOY
OH FUCKING BOY
PIRATE CAPTAIN HO
I'm stealing the biggest ship I can manage and starting my own pirate crew, using knowledge gathered over the previous centuries to upgrade it as much as possible and train the crew well. also not have to deal with scurvy because I know what prevents it.
This pirate ship is steadily upgraded with new tech and constantly sails the 7 seas, using foreknowledge of tech to stay one step ahead of the pack.
Become a living legend, having existed for literal centuries.
The crew may change, but the captain hasn't, and won't.

>>Through good use of my newfound powers and showmanship, become known as a demigod servant of Jupiter, sent to sort Rome's shit out. As such, I become the highest religious authority.

Top Kek, Romans didn't give a shit about the imperial cult. It was a political machine used by patracians. Being some dude who claims he's the son of Jupiter won't make people care about you. You'd need to find a patron and build relations from there. Rome is all politics, flashy tricks ain't enough, you got to infiltrate the top.

Being an unaging being people would assume I'm a witch or some shit. I don't want to have all eyes on me so I travel. Sure I'll probably get a nickname since people all over the world keep seeing this guy pop up but that's at least something where you can say "I just look like him."

Probably wouldn't be able to do much in Roman society as a woman, so probably go off instead to some barbarians or northern tribes or something who could have queens.

After that, only question is I guess, how long would I live for?

>>49065378
indefinitely, apparently, you've got a semi-immortality, you don't age/die of most causes, but being burned/losing your head will kill you

>>49053277
Convince the Emperor there's an entire other continent to the west chock full of gold and shit. Go to South America. Mayans v Rome go.

Probably live out Roman life for some time then, and eventually leave to live in a next stable state, like what will go on to become England.

How would you introduce the metric system? Besides saying "1mm, duh", how do you know how big a mm is? You can gesture with your arms, saying "let's use something about this big", but people will just laugh and call you an idiot.

Time had a system that allowed them to construct aqueducts kilometers long. You're going to be hard pressed to convince them your "this big" system is better.

Just throwing it out there, but women who had at least three legitimate children from their husband was treated (almost) just as well as the average male citizen.

You could also hold out for the Byzantine Empire and take over Theodora's position by Justinian's side, eventually seeing him survive or die to the plague and ruling as Empress instead.

>>49058467

why not just do your best to keep current (at the time) memes relevant.

>Proceed to shit everyone

>>49066416
Treated almost just as well as the average male citizen isn't really the same as having opportunities to raise above one's standing though.

Also the Byzantine Empire collapses.

>>49066470
but... you DID rise above your standing, you had kids, making you more useful to the empire and more respected because of that.

>>49066470
>Also the Byzantine Empire collapses.

>literally every empire in history thus far

>>49066843
There's nations today that have not yet collapsed and have been around in some form or other, not long after Rome collapses. Hence why I figured England, or what becomes it.

>>49066842
I'm not that beholden to an empire where I can't possibly rule. Also how does possibly living indefinitely work with fertility? Do I still become unable to have children past 50, even if I'm still biologically young? Advanced healing factor wouldn't itself grant the ability to synthesize eggs.

>>49066894
>Nations = Empires

Also, Shush. You're keeping fresh new eggs.

>>49066894

>being an empire

That shit fell apart over two centuries ago.

>>49066894
>Do I still become unable to have children past 50, even if I'm still biologically young? Advanced healing factor wouldn't itself grant the ability to synthesize eggs.

If you are biologically 20, then all of your biological functions would still operate as if you were twenty. What kind of question is this?

>>49066936
I'm referring to England as the entity. Whether it's the British Empire or not, it still exists as an entity, and has done so since not long after Rome collapses.

It's possibly the safest bets as far as I know, which also gives some possible high status to women.

>>49066965
>What kind of question is this?

There's only a limited number of eggs to begin with, and you can't make more. If you remain 20 and continue to menstruate, in roughly 30 years you'll be out of eggs, give or take, even if your body remains young. Unless of course the eggs are magically synthesized from the ether, but then that's not just advanced healing factor.

>>49067012
You're regenerating all of your cells. It is keeping you as you are, at 20. Why would this not include eggs?

>>49066979
>still existing=/=remaining as an entity

Great Britain has changed so much over the years it may as well have a different name. That is a silly comparison and silly reasoning. Rome still exists as a city, is it the same as Rome two-thousand years ago? Of course not. You'd be better off in Alaska. And it fits your criteria of "being there".

>>49067012

This means you need to make it count, anon.

Find a good man and have children, and watch over their children and their children's children.

>>49067086
Because you conventionally lose eggs naturally, your body can naturally heal damage but it can't naturally make more eggs. If the eggs themselves are damaged, then the assumption being they'd regenerate. If they're lost outright though?

Unless the ability like, takes a snapshot of you at a point while you're 20, and does its best to keep it that way, including synthesizing lost eggs. But then the implications are mind-boggling, do you only ever ovulate the same egg, just regenerated over and over each time you lose it?

>>49067129
>That is a silly comparison and silly reasoning.

Maybe to you. Rome has been sacked and experienced turmoil and bloodshed since 200 B.C., even if it still exists. The idea is to find a place of civilization which exists for the longest amount of time, while experiencing the least amount of turmoil and danger.

England may have changed so much over the years, just as Rome has, but there are places in England which have been safer than Rome since then. Certainly at least, places which haven't been sacked, pillaged, burned, and what have you.

>>49067152
I guess that's a fair point, create a clan that propagates itself, and ideally could ensure my safety.

The danger in making a clan is when the Romans get about to invading the British Isles and Boudicca decides to fuck everything up by uniting the Britons under one banner that gets smashed.

>>49053277
I will join the army asap, learn how to fight and kill. Then I will do my best to be promoted to centurion, learning as much as I can about military (strategy, tactics, siege and general warfare). After 30-40 years of roaming the world waging war and impregnating as much women as I can, I'll be retired and granted a land (like retired soldiers did). I'll ask for a land as far as possible from Rome, near the frontier.

After a couple of years of hanging around with the locals, subtly teaching them today's knowledge (hygiene, health care, basic science (even in disguise of magic if necessary) and the Imperial Creed I will leave and wander the world looking for adventure as a mercenary, keeping closer any savant and learning everything I can (philosophy, maths, architecture, medicine, metallurgy, etc.) towards the east -still impregnating as many women as I can- till the day zero. then I go to Judea, find the so called Son of God and figure out if is for real or just a cultist/fanatic/insurgent -if even exists. If he is the Son of God, heck! I'll leave him alone, if not, I will kill him the way of my people: Knocking him out, putting him in a sack full of stones and throwing him overboard in the middle of the sea.

Then back to the northern frontier of the roman empire, teaching them how beat the fuck up of the roman army and try myself to became a Warlord and (try to) raid every roman town, raising tribes against Rome. EVERYTHING I can to waste Rome.

Then again, roam the world, fuck and learn as much as possible till the day arrives Mohammed is born -I'll feed the pigs with him alive.

Then again, fuck the world, roam and learn as much as possible and see were it goes from there.

>>49067408
Well in this case it would be a Roman clan, right? If the scenario is being born into Rome circa 200 B.C.

Plenty of time to get several generations of a big family, and leaving before the whole situation goes tits up.
