Seriously? I'd go back and meet myself, try to convince myself of the things I know now, I think I'd inherrantly trust "me", so that should be good. Save me from getting married, wasting so much time trying to repair something that takes 2 to work at, find my happiness on my own, save a boat load of cash...

I think people don't think about the past as something dreadful... in the 1800's, toilet paper wasn't officially sold to the masses until 1857... before that, you were wiping your ass with whatever you could find, and then throwing your stool water out the window onto the alley/streetway. It was a disgusting era before we learned about germs and hygiene. While it would be interesting to pull a fast one on the people of before, you would quickly grow tired of the nasty food, disgusting scene, and probably the intelligence and mannerisms of the locals :p

Not to mention showering, soap...and above all....

Air Conditioning!

I seriously don't think people think about that when they think about "olde times." My ex always said she would go back to the renaissance era and do the masquerade balls, and yadda yadda. I'd always spoil her dream and mention that she would probably smell like an armpit, have swamp ass, and be sweating her ass off (or freezing) due to lack of modern heating and cooling.

Oh and no refrigeration. Good times!

If you go to the past to alter something then you are eliminating the need, in the present, to alter the past, thus a paradox.

Orchestrate it so that your present time self wouldn't be notified of the change until after you went back in time, thus avoiding such a paradox... Example, have a letter sent advising of a massive trust fund that you can now claim. LOL

I'm with the other people on the win the lotto thing, maybe get myself some cool future tech for personal use, winning the lotto would be the extent to my

changing the timeline thing.

EDIT: Scratched that, I'd also go far enough into the future to where they cure death and aging, THAT would be the extent to my changing the timeline.

haha, oh man that was funny.

If it worked just the way I wanted it to, I'd just go back to the 90s and early 2000s to try and change who I used to be and attempt to keep some friends that have since faded. I think about it every day. If I could relive my school days, I would. Over and over...

Know exactly what You mean and I would do the same thing.

*snipped*

LMAO!!! :rofl:

If I had a time machine, I'd go back in time and try to raise a world not dominated by religion for so long. If that never happened, I bet we would be much much more technologically advanced than we are right now.

Going into your own past sounds great, until you realize you'd suddenly have all these friends and relatives alive again who you know are going to die and when, how could you deal with that. It would be horrible. I'd only like to go back if I could completely forget about certain things.

Just for fun.. I'd go into the future... check out some games... write down the results.. and make awesome money with bets... or euro millions, will work too.

I don't really wanna know my future.. otherwise there's no surprise element which is what prevents boredom :b

    • Onkyo Dolby Atmos AV receivers are really solid deals by Sayan Sen Recently we covered great deals on several soundbar models from the likes of Sony, JBL, Samsung and others for really good prices (the lowest in several months). Aside from that we also reported on the Edifier S3000MKII, a hi-fi two-way bookshelf monitor that's available for only $800. Today we bring a list of AV receivers from Onkyo that are available at great prices including the Onkyo NR7100, RZ30, and 8470 (purchase links under the specs table down below). The Onkyo TX-NR7100 and Onkyo TX-RZ30 are both 9.2-channel AV receivers designed for immersive home theater setups but they occupy slightly different tiers within Onkyo’s lineup with the RZ30 positioned as the more advanced model. The TX-NR7100 is a THX Certified 9.2-channel receiver offering up to 100 W per channel (8 ohms, 2 channels driven). It supports Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, and IMAX Enhanced formats, with flexible configurations such as 5.1.4 or 7.1.2 speaker layouts. A key highlight is its built-in Dirac Live Room Correction which should help optimize sound based on your room and its acoustics. In comparison, both models share several core capabilities though the RZ30 is geared toward enthusiasts seeking more precise calibration and system flexibility, while the NR7100 is positioned as a slightly more accessible, value-focused option with strong all-round performance. The technical specs of the RZ30 and NR7100 9.2 AVRs are given in the table below: Specification Onkyo TX-RZ30 Onkyo TX-NR7100 Power Output (FTC, 2ch driven) ~100 W/ch (8Ω, 20Hz–20kHz, 0.08% THD) 100 W/ch (8Ω, 20Hz–20kHz, 0.08% THD) Dynamic / Peak Power 9 × 170 W (6Ω, 1kHz, 1% THD, 1ch driven) 220 W/ch (6Ω, 1kHz, 10% THD, 1ch driven) Frequency Response 5 Hz – 100 kHz (+1/-3 dB) 10 Hz – 100 kHz (+1/-3 dB) THD 0.08% 0.08% Room Correction Dirac Live (full bandwidth) Dirac Live (with AccuReflex support) Immersive Audio Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, IMAX Enhanced Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, IMAX Enhanced Speaker Layout Support Up to 7.2.2 / 5.2.4 / 9.2 processing Up to 7.2.4 / 5.2.4 / 9.2 processing HDMI Inputs / Outputs 6 inputs / 2 outputs (eARC) 6 inputs / 2 outputs (Main + Sub/Zone 2) HDMI 2.1 Support 8K/60, 4K/120, VRR, ALLM, QFT, DSC, eARC 8K/60, 4K/120, VRR, ALLM, QFT, DSC, eARC Video Formats HDR10+, Dolby Vision, HDCP 2.3 HDR10+, Dolby Vision, HDCP 2.3 Streaming / Network Wi-Fi, AirPlay 2, Chromecast, Bluetooth, DTS Play-Fi Wi-Fi, AirPlay 2, Chromecast, Bluetooth, DTS Play-Fi Get them at the links below: Onkyo TX-RZ30 9.2-Channel AV Receiver: $797.00 (Sold and shipped by Electronic Expo) Onkyo TX-NR7100 9.2-Channel AV Receiver: $699.00 (Sold and shipped by Adorma) Onkyo TX-8470 2 Ch Stereo Receiver: $449.00 (Sold and Shipped by Adorma) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • A different thing with Russia. When you say is it better, depends on things. It is better that we don't have the E.U making rules and laws that have nothing to do with them. Is the trading part better? No, that is really mucked up, but then we knew that was going to happen and we would have make agreements, like we do with other parts of the world. Freedom of movement is certainly better, but could be improved, we still need more control over our borders. do you live in the U.K?
    • So what am I quoting from them? I never listened to what Farage or his cronies said. I wanted the U.K to leave the E.u years before the referendum and it had nothing to do with Farage and his cronies. So what country do you live in? Did we work much better together? We were always at logger heads with the E.U because we disagreed with them so much. Maggie was always on at them. I would have thought the E.U was glad to get rid of us as we stopped the integration or made it a two tier. Now without us they can integrate more. I would not have voted out if it was just a trading block and we can still work together on somethings.
