my assumption is you would cease to exist, but in a sort of indeterminable inbetween between death and life because you technically were alive to kill yourself. JUST A GUESS THO!

From what I know about it, the faster you get to the speed of light the slower time passes for you. So if you’re a twin, and you’re sent in a rocket at say 90% the speed of light (since matter can’t travel at the speed of light) then in 10 earth years you come back, you’ll be younger then 10 while you’re twin will be 10 years old
(Idk how much you slow down, but I do know that at the speed of light time doesn’t really exist, so from light’s perspective it is created and hits an object in the same instant)

If I can dream about time travel as long as I’m sleeping it is true
Okay
Most people do have to be asleep to dream
why not?
the thing about time travel, is there are many different types, so which are you talking about?
and there’s also the whole other discussion about if humans even have free will. if we don’t, then no matter how time travel works, your paradox can’t happen
actually, this is wrong. time is relative n stuff. time dilation allows your time to go at a different speed than other peoples’ time or something
you can dream about literally anything, even if it’s impossible

here’s my way of thinking about it. if you assume you have no free will, you’re going to be limited because you think nothing you do matters. but if you assume you have free will, you can carry on life as usual. even if you dont have free will, if you think you do, it wont matter in the end.
also, this isnt how it would work if you dont have free will, bc what if some external force (whatevs controlling u) makes you? thats how life would work, seeming normal but manipulated and artificual.
involves
(could be wrong, dont know much in the field)
that’s not really what I meant by not having free will.
basically, what I believe, is that everything that is ever going to happen has already happened, or at least has already been determined. that will never change, no matter what happens.
what exactly do you mean by that though? all that is required for time dilation to occur is being in motion (at least I think so).

time dilation is basically something moving faster is effected less by time. It was proved to be true by syncing 2 clocks, putting one in a fighter jet, one in the ground. After a ~30 minute flight in it, the clock was a few seconds behind the ground clock.
how were they turned on at the exact same time, though?

… by synchronizing them? Wdym?
…oh. nvm I’m stupid
Interesting idea I ran into earlier, instead of going through time you pull time through something/someone. The example I saw was you burn a pizza, so you push time back through the pizza to return it to a previous state where it isn’t burned. Obviously can’t do it with current technology, main problem being that to our knowledge time isn’t a form of energy we would be able to harness like electricity. You’d need a stupid amount of research in order to invent something that could ‘detect’ time and then exponentially more research to be able to affect/alter it.
can i get a TLDR from msgs 23-32
Does this mean you actually read mine since it’s message 33 or nah?
yes cause i like u random
So I was kinda correct?
Saw that in kurzgesagt
Doesn’t work that way, I think it’s so minuscule it can only be observed by computers
I heard this one astronaut theoretically moved slightly faster in time being in space for a few years

Heres a link to something talking about that experiment
