Can't make it last Thursday. Can we push it to the Thursday after?

Useless board. Unless anchored to a specific date, there's no way to know if an actual time traveler shows up.

Just show up in a Thursday evening and tell them you saw the sign next week.

Stephen Hawking once threw a time travelers party but only published the information afterwards. Nobody showed up.

I know this kinda sounds like a joke but it's a real thing he did.

While I greatly respect(ed) Stephen Hawking, if I could time travel, going to his party would not be anywhere near the top of my list.

Stephen Hawking is there in epstein list. Iirc there was a photo of hawking with bill clinton as well

[–] turdas@suppo.fi 3 points 2 days ago

A lot of people were there in the Epstein list, including many who didn't really have anything to do with his island. What would Hawking have done, molested girls with his single functioning cheek muscle?

"Okay, Stephen, we're here. Now here's unflinching scientific fact on why it's imperative you never tell anyone ... "

It’s weird to think that they would show up.

The earth is here for likely trillions and trillions of years. 2008 or whenever is like a spec in a sea of time. And probably not very interesting

[–] TheLeadenSea@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

why did he post the information afterwards if he already knew that no one had shown up?

[–] cattywampas@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Because if he didn't then they couldn't.

But what if they did show up, then afterwards he chose not to publish the information?

What specific date do you need? The universe was created last Thursday

Is there something wrong with Earth's gravity in the future?

Great Scott!

Recursive directions. Slingshot through time and now I'm waiting for Thor mythology to drop.

I was going to tell a time traveling joke here, but you guys didnt like it.

Get a bike, move your feet backwards, you are there /J

Go 88 miles an hour in reverse.

Ok, now you have to get your friends to hang out there every other Thursday at 7pm. So someone that has no idea what's up, it's actually last Thursday, right then and there.
