Use that fucker to send back lottery numbers in Higgs particle binary.

> "One of the attractive things about this approach to time travel is that it avoids all the big paradoxes," Weiler said. "Because time travel is limited to these special particles, it is not possible for a man to travel back in time and murder one of his parents before he himself is born, for example. However, if scientists could control the production of Higgs singlets, they might be able to send messages to the past or future."

What.

If you were to send information back into the past, it would make sense to send information that the past didn't have (otherwise it would be pointless). But then the past does have that information, so it wouldn't be information one would send into the past. There's your grandfather paradox.

No such thing as time.

lol it's just a theory
and you all know about the c limit
and causality.. it's probably wrong...

>> No.2713922

That's it, we're fucked...

If we can sent and receive data from the past/future, doesn't that mean all we have to do to test the theory is build a machine that can receive data from the future?

If we immediately begin getting data, that would prove that it's possible.

There are still a lot of flaws with this right? If data comes from the future it would change the future's past... which would fuck shit up right /sci/? Someone please explain how this isn't a bad idea.

Also if time traveling data is possible couldn't you send people to the past as data?

I it is possible to create a paradox; then It should be safe since civilizations on other planets will most likely have tried to create a paradox them self by now.

this implies that time can flow in 2 dimensions and what seems to be a time loop is really just a time spiral

Okay, point A is when time-data is able to be received, after point A, well, no one knows for sure. We can send and receive data from the future and send it back to when it was first able to be received.

At this point...well...I would think either a paradox occurs, or we realize time is a figment of imagination and we're moving on a constant.

Only way to know for sure is to turn the fucker on.

He claimed to be posting on something called ETP that allowed him to post from the future to the past. He came to /v/ late 07 and pretty much told everyone that Obama was going to win the election. From there he started telling shit that people asked. He also spoke of a 2016 American Civil war. The Christian South rises again for like 8months or so, and gets stomped down by the US Military...however, the Christian groups kill a lot of people through executions and mass burnings
