Check out my post on quantum computing.

I recon thats the way

I'm a believer in time travel, but not what is seen in most movies, where a person takes themselves out of a timeline and can reappear at another era
I believe there is people who can go backwards/forwards in their own timeline, and age accordingly

How would that work?

 

[Wattos Waste]

There's many answers to this.
Here's a few that will leave more questions then answers:

1) just by being present, the observe will actually change events. "whatever you observe you also change." someone else might see the observer and alert you causing you to change your actions.

Thus causing a paradox simply by being present.

2) all "time" happens at once we perceive time as a continual flowing process.
So him seeing the CCTV footage wasn't actually "in the future" but at the same exact moment. Only the observes perspective has changed.

3) paradox impossibilty. The past cannot be changed no matter what. This would mean when viewing the CCTV footage the observer had no way of knowing it but he had "already" traveled to the past from the perspective of the subject.

Explain it more simply, he couldn't have traveled to the past unless he had already traveled to the past.

So let's say I'm the observer your the subject.

In 2025 I watch footage of the past which shows you crossing the road in 2014 then travel there and watch you the subject cross the road.

In 2025 from your perspective I was watching you in 2014. The event has already happened for you. in order for it to have happened it must have always happened.

My future actual is the past (from your perspective) so like you, my own actions have also already occurred. because as far as the universe is concerned my very presents is a paradox. I'm not supposed to be present and if paradoxes are impossible then it must mean I was always watching you in 2014. My future must be a set event.

*brain explosion* haha

well said mate

How would that work?

I believe time is constant
Most time travel story's indicate that it isn't

How would it work? You could only go to points in your own life, as you, not take your current self back

Just send me forward to Monday night so I can get all the scores, and then back to Friday...I can miss the working week, head on down to the TAB, and be in the West Indies on the beach by the following weekend...

I'd still manage to stuff it up. I'd end up puuting the money on race 5 instead of race 6 or something.

Let's kick it off with what was an internet sensation a couple of years ago - The Charlie Chaplin time traveller.

A photographer going through behind the scenes footage from Chaplin's The Circus found some footage of a woman apparently talking on a mobile phone.

God knows how she got reception back in the past, when we barely get it in the present, but that's another thing.

Perhaps she really is a time-traveller, sent back through the decades to make a jaw-dropping cameo appearance.
Or maybe she was a maverick genius, secretly testing out advanced technology for the government and caught on camera at the wrong moment.
Whatever the explanation, this footage from a Charlie Chaplin promotional film in 1928 showing a woman apparently using a mobile phone has left viewers stumped.

Here's a short Youtube documentary.

Was thinking about a similar problem as appears to be the case in this clip. Computer networks in a building are usually wired but I'm deploying wireless in my agency using Cisco Meraki kit. Cloud managed self meshing network. Eg the endpoints all talk to each other to build the network. The next step up from this is that all the wireless cards in the PC's do their own meshing and therefore I wouldn't need to deploy additional kit. The network would build and extend itself just by being deployed in a device.

One of the things that phones companies don't like is building their network of towers which are expensive to maintain. The ideal solution to this would be that the network is deployed in the end user devices so that you don't need the infrastructure to use them.... and you only need one other device nearby to be able to communicate.

So a device from our future with improved electronics could establish a very wide ranging network would probably be a little bigger than today's phones to include all that. So yes she could be talking to her fellow companions/travellers without the infrastructure in place.

Check out the sci-fi film ''The Man From Earth''

Not exactly time travel, but sorta related as it's about someone who is immortal.

Good movie, worth watching.

 

[TheMase]

So theres been one time travel patent, supposedly from the future.

Once a second one gets lodged, I reckon its game on, especially if it appears in the patent register some time after the lodgement date



On a slightly different note, we are talking about real time in the real world. What about computer time in the computer modelled world ?

Imagine if sending messages back in time can happen reltively cheaply at sub atomic level for shortish time periods.

At the moment we have supercomputers which model scientific hypotheses, sometimes taking a long long time.
What if the computer curcuits could give feedback backwards in time. The results could be known much earlier and wasted computations down blind alleys could be cancelled. It would be enormous.
Im not thinking programming here but feedback loops within individual micro curcuits.

A machine would be so much more intelligent, more human like with what we call hunches, but still have its massive exact logic.

Whats to say human brains dont already do this ? Have feedback frmo thoughts before they are actually processed ?

Whats to say animals can also sense the future, albeit in amore instinctive than reasoning way ?

I came across a claimed time traveller once, that barely has an online presence now, though somewhere I still have all the documents.

The person who posted the information claimed someone contacted them via email via quantum computing.

They were presented in riddles or parables, I will try and dig then out sometime.

Nah. Load of bollocks. There's no device. Her fingers are spread evenly, and you can see her thumb. The black shape in front of her little finger is a shadow, cast by the same angle producing the shadow across her face, but the black shape doesn't extend out past her palm towards her mouth. A telltale sign she's not holding anything occurs in the instant the shot fades into the next - her fingers start to move downward independently, the spacing changing, and you can also see past the gap between her palm and cheek - just shadow. Why she seems to be talking to herself, who knows, but if you walk down any given city mall you'll see that sort of thing all the time...!

Im thinking if a group invented time travel, or communications, it would be much more lucrative to keep it secret

If you sent a sports almanac back to 1930s, saying hawthorn had just threepeated, and won the most flags in the next 80 years, not sure those people would think it very probable

 

[FootyJunkie]

they would look at the almanac and go... "What's a West Coast?"

You could have sent it to 2010 and got the same result...

 

[Catfish Alley]

Where do you get these almanacs? I've never seen one in my life.

 

[van peebles]

Where do you get these almanacs? I've never seen one in my life.

You can buy them from the hollywood movie prop shop in downtown LA.
Also sell maps to instagram celebratory addresses in geelong.rubes and looc.

 

[giggler99]

found this on Youtube some time ago so i'll post it in here:

Man who claims he was a time traveler





Documentary on Project Pegasus and the Philadelphia Experiment, which apparently where Secret Government experiments on time travel. You be the judge whether you believe or not, I'm very skeptical but sure is interesting.



Interesting reading up on the Philadelphia Experiment on the web and Wikipedia some very intriguing stuff about Cloaking and teleporting that also went on whether its all true who knows.

If I had to bet I'd go with backwards time travel being an impossibility but we know that time is relative, its personal to the observer and malleable depending on different factors and so maybe if its taken to the absurd there is no paradox.

I travel to a previous time, shoot my grandfather and so now I'll never be born again but does that matter? I was born from my perspective, the universe existed as it needed to while I was there and now I'm somewhere else. Does it matter that its no longer going to go down that path if I'm not going to be there anyway?

 

[Pessimistic]

We send remote control machinery across space so it makes sense we do it with time too.

Maybe UFOs are just observation drones. Much safer to send something flying back in time

Well... something can only move across space, over time.
But I don't see how it makes sense that we could go backwards in time.

 

[M Malice]

if time is fluid and not lineal then time travelers would be here now and it would be evident.

 

[Pessimistic]

Theres plenty of reasons why, if someon achieved time travel, or even time communications, they would keep it secret, at least for a while

 

[Dee Snider]

Ive always wondered about that too. Surely if some time in the future we do master time travel then how come no-one has ever come back to our times?

Seems to suggest it's never going to happen?
