Time machine
Current bid: $300,000,000,001,999.00 | Reserve met | Closed: 6:40 pm, Sat 1 Oct 2005
sellers advert
Unfinished project.
Started making a machine to facillitate time travel, unfortunately I just dont have the time to complete it.
Have had mixed results, so no guarantees.
Would suit DIY handyman with quantum physics background or similar intersest.
No time wasters please !
Would consider swap for anti-gravity machine
Buyers questions
Comments on this auction
Do you have the flux capacitor to go with this? I can't see it in the photo.. posted by: studio1 (208 ) 5:06 pm, Tue 27 Sep
This model does not use a flux capacitor to reduce the time dilation effect. Are you sure you know what you are doing ?
Does this run on mains? What's the reserve? What will postage be to Palmerston North? posted by: izzy_dude (59 ) 8:24 pm, Tue 27 Sep
The machine can be self powered if you can find a source of Uranium 235. Alternatively it can run of mains power supply. Postage anywhere in NZ, anytime $5
haha. great stuff. +bids+ posted by: westyandseven (54 ) 4:20 am, Wed 28 Sep
haha. If its so great why arent you bidding ?
I've got a space continuum transfunctioner. Would you consider swaping it for that? It's a bit rough and ready and blows a little bule smoke but appears to be running ok. posted by: allmypukunui (8 ) 10:23 am, Wed 28 Sep
space continuum transfunctioners are old school. I used to have one and it blew blue smoke too, just before it blew up. Get rid of it now.
I'd like to go back & see my Great Uncle Rodney when he was 18 because he skulled a jug of beer in only 3.2 seconds & I'd certainly like to see that! I'm pretty sure that I have the necessary skills to complete the project too. I got a C+ in 4th form Science & two sticky red stars. posted by: mrshin (149 ) 1:34 pm, Wed 28 Sep
Certainly an event worthy of time travel. And if any one can get this puppy working, its you - with your fancy two red stars, and forth form education.
Will this machine be capable of going forwards as well as backwards it time. I built one in 2052 that only went backwards and I haven't been able to get back to my time. I need one that can go boths ways so I can come back to this time to feed the cat I have. posted by: jd10 (97 ) 2:07 pm, Wed 28 Sep
interesting dilema, but simply answered by the formula : dt = dt' . (1 - v²/c²)1/2 which i have designed the device around, in theory past and future travel should be possible. I have sympathy for you and your cat, but when amateurs play with time travel this is what happens.
i looove it... its a master piece in progress ;p posted by: moooona (127 ) 6:47 pm, Wed 28 Sep
this is not a piece of conceptual art. it is a very serious quantum level time travelling device - well would be if it worked.
Does it have fast forward, rewind and pause? posted by: izzy_dude (59 ) 9:21 am, Thu 29 Sep
Time is a little more complicated than fast forwarding, rewinding and pause. The time reference dilator is capable of such functions but the theory behind it is somewhat unproven. It does have an eject button if thats any help ?
Here's a curly question... If I traveled back in time to when I was ten years old, do you think it would be illegal for me to fondle my younger self? posted by: absolut (13 ) 2:13 pm, Thu 29 Sep
in a court of law i believe what you are describing would be classed as Self pleasure, or perhaps self abuse Either way both are perfectly legal no matter what the age. If you were caught they would have issues proving it via DNA anyway
Back in '82, I used to be able to throw a pigskin a quarter mile. Would this machine be able to take me back in time so I could take State? posted by: nzjafa (1 ) 3:10 pm, Thu 29 Sep
you need to give up on your glory years, and live for the now. A quarter mile is pretty impressive though, is that for real ?
Does the eftpos machine work on Pre-pay time credits or pay as you travel? posted by: steve__ (15 ) 3:31 pm, Thu 29 Sep
i see you have mistaken the time defliberator for an old eftpos machine. Easy mistake for beginners to time travel to make, they do look similar.
If I am successful with my bid, do you think there is sufficient grunt in the machine to go back to the beginning of this auction, wipe out all memory of it, so I don't have to pay you. posted by: bubbs29 (55 ) 4:04 pm, Thu 29 Sep
if the auction dosnt take place, you would never have the time machine, so you would be stuck in the past, with no machine to get back to the present. time is a dangerous thing to play with, and you really need to carefully consider the consequences, before you start mucking with the past, and breaching time continuation
Ha! Call me an amateur. I just fixed my time machine. All I had to do was put the AA batteries in the other way round and now it goes forwards in time! See you suckers later, Im going back to the future. Oh and as a heads up to the winner of this auction everything in the future is chrome posted by: jd10 (97 ) 4:29 pm, Thu 29 Sep
Please note AA batteries were only invented in 1968 so dont go back beyond this time. Also they will be phased in 2010 due to the invention of the organic fuel cell, brought on by the severe depletion of the worlds battery resources. So dont go forward in time past this date.
Yes I do know what I am doing.. without the flux capacitor I can't modulate the 21 gigawatts of energy I need to transmogrify the time / space continuum. So far all attempts to locate a flux capacitor have proved fruitless, hence why I haven't been able to time travel. They've got them in the future, but I can't get there to get one. posted by: studio1 (208 ) 4:39 pm, Thu 29 Sep
I dont know a great deal about flux capacitors as my machine does not use one. You could try getting in contact with Marty McFly, his delorean time machine is based on Flux capaitation and he maybe able to supply you with one. May pay to get a couple cos they dont last to long apparently. I think I saw one for sale on trademe a while back..
I have half of my cheese and tomato sandwich left from lunch, would you consider a trade? posted by: adamstar (2 ) 4:44 pm, Thu 29 Sep
What kind of dressing ?
do you think i could get your theory on paper so i can build my own time machine, all i need is a prtable phone, efptos machine, shit coomputer tower, headset, spard floppy disc and some random wires,.....that way i can go back and have sex with any one i want no mater what they say and it would be legal because by the time i am back in this time i wouldnt of aged a bit so they will be looking for someone 15 years older....... this machine sounds great...maybe i could be a hero and stop the 7/1 posted by: sldwys1 (9 ) 4:48 pm, Thu 29 Sep
unfortunately its all in my head, and a bit hard to explain to people not hip with the theories behing time travel. you seems to have the parts down, but you also need a positive, can do attitude, and a certain amount of qunatum physics knowledge. And an awful lot of patience. it amazes me how many people wish to use time travel for sexual gratification, it is not what it was designed for.
I am particularly saddened to have been outbid. However $9.52 was the limit of my budget (being as it is 76% of my annual income). By the way, what are these things that go whoosh when they pass my buggy on the road? posted by: rogerp (295 ) 4:48 pm, Thu 29 Sep
Those things going woosh would be cars going the speed limit. You should consider a new job, a monkey gets paid more in a zoo.
Would it be safe for pets? posted by: bigbobthefob (30 ) 5:10 pm, Thu 29 Sep
The testing I have carried out to date involved animals. I received varying results and dont want to disclose to much because the SPCA may get wind of this. Im sure if you were able to get it working correctly it would be safe for all organic life forms.
ATTENTION ALL BIDDERS AND WATCHERS ALIKE! I have already won this auction. I collected the incomplete model and I used my skills to complete the project in only 42 days. I then travelled back in time just to send you this message to prove that it actually works ! I am a genius. Also the winning lotto numbers for this Saturday are: 6, 9, 23, 29, 32, 37 & 40. The powerball is 19. posted by: mrshin (149 ) 5:20 pm, Thu 29 Sep
Cool, it seems this auction ends with a successful bid. congratulations!

Yea Wordup 50 Cent!! he's my home boy from da hood.... we go way back.
Hi ; can you confirm that the phase modulation has been accurately calibrated on this. I've read on the geeksquad forums that incorrectly calibrated phase modulation while time travelling can make a guy grow boobies. posted by: arcad23 (35 ) 5:29 pm, Thu 29 Sep
I have noticed this i had put it down to old age and The Noodle Box but you have me thinking....
YES I HAVE A ANTI GRAVITY MACHINE THAT I WOULD LIKE TO SWAP. COULD YOU FINISH YOUR TIME MACHINE AND BRING IT TO TAURANGA AND GO BACK IN TIME TO WHEM MY ANTI GRAVITY MACHINE KICKED INTO GEAR AND FLOATED OFF TOWARDS THE SUN, IF YOU CAN DO THIS IT WILL PREVENT IT TAKING OFF AND THEN YOU CAN SWAP IT. THANKYOU FROM JASON. posted by: jase59 (41 ) 5:29 pm, Thu 29 Sep
Sorry the reserve price has already been met.
Hi Mike, This is great!! My dad was once a Great Viking Warrior in his past life.This would make a great present for him to go back in time and find out where and when he was killed in battle.WATCHING WITH INTEREST!!! as he still displays many viking attributes today. posted by: dancer17 (136 ) 5:37 pm, Thu 29 Sep
unfortunately you have missed fathers day. Possibly the perfect fathers day gift. good to see your motives are for time travel are genuine and historical, not to distort time or go on some crazy rampage, for your own gain. Good for you
If I bought this, and then went back in time and stopped myself buying the time machine, would I completly disapear? Or would it cause a rip in the space/time continium and cause the earth to fold in on itself? posted by: cjh1 (84 ) 5:41 pm, Thu 29 Sep
You see this is the issue. people like you who want to experiment with time and see "what would happen". What if the earth did fold in on its self...then what. Whoops ......! Time travel is very serious and there are HUGE repurcussions, with breaking the time continuim. With time travel comes a certain responsibility to the rest of man kind.
can i go bak to when powerball was 16mill and win lotto,that would be fantastically methologacally great posted by: kurto48 (33 ) 6:16 pm, Thu 29 Sep

Hello i am a professor from the University of Scientifics and i myself do not believe this will work here is my theory: ç/mc=3 x Y+9,r />9{12};1 p+&=-7/23; <9> _3_ = Q+3/2 So there is no way this will work If you know how inform me of your formula and theories of its function posted by: debeda (18 ) 6:18 pm, Thu 29 Sep
hmmm, i see the error in your formuala. Its pretty basic. In fact this formula is dribble, and i have never heard of no "University of scientifics". What is this, are you some kind of foney.
I have an anti gravity machine, its an old ZX300 model from around the 1960's. Made by Matel. Interested? All it needs is a spit shine and a new battery for the old ticker. posted by: freeborder (41 ) 6:49 pm, Thu 29 Sep
i am not familiar with the ZX300 model. Do you have any pictures ? Does it antigravitize objects only, or does it do entire rooms ? has it been thrashed.

Can you please tell me how many speeds the dischargeable time synchroniser has. Also, does the machine operate at the same speed going forward as in going backwards, and if so how long would it take me to travel backwards 100 years. posted by: bubbs29 (55 ) 7:33 pm, Thu 29 Sep
It is an older Synchroniser Forward is 16X Speed backwards 4X Speed

I have 3 money growing trees planted on the moon. Would you consider a trade for 1? posted by: shano38 (14 ) 8:40 pm, Thu 29 Sep
how big are these money trees, and how do you harvest the money, as i know for a fact moon travel is an impossibility. it is impossible to get to the moon to get harvest the money. despite this i will definately consider a swap.
Hey does this travel to 8.10pm Saturdays and then return to Friday nite. Mmmm this is sounding real good and hey cheap when you think of being able to win lotto each week. And ah this is just the start. Maybe I better consult the bank manager for a quicky loan. posted by: teddybearlady (199 ) 8:43 pm, Thu 29 Sep
Funnilly enough I could never get it to travel to 8.10pm Saturday. What is your bank managers name and I can give him a call if you like. Lotto is small time - with the power to travel time you can think big.
howz it do u wana swap 4 my sole have a look at my listings posted by: lowedvtec (10 ) 8:51 pm, Thu 29 Sep

Does this unit allow you to travel sideways through time, if so, how many miles to the litre? Also, could you confirm that this is a genuine time-travel device, as my last few time-machine purchases turned out to be frauds. posted by: brandoooon (14 ) 8:53 pm, Thu 29 Sep
No it does not allow sideways travel through time as this unit was only designed to work 1-dimesionaly. It also does not depend on any non-renewable hydrocarbon resource for power. I can confirm this is a genuine work-in-progress and you would only be cheating yourself by not getting it working.
Hi Mike, on the previous listing, I asked a question, I believe it is still pertinent to this listing, could you please answer it, cheers Johnee. posted by: johnee (82 ) 9:09 pm, Thu 29 Sep
If the device was currently working i would be able to go back in time to check your question, unfortunetly it is still in its unfinished state so you will need to repost the question.
could you give me the full formula for the physics of this machine, i will need it if i am going to continue to work on this invention, thanks posted by: godave (11 ) 9:11 pm, Thu 29 Sep
Yes but it wont be what you expected!
If you dont have time why dont you just complete it and then go back in time to when you didnt have time and then you would have already finished it. Duh posted by: lin40 (1 ) 9:41 pm, Thu 29 Sep

I have actually trialed this on a Guinea pig and the results were not pleasing. My legal advice is i need some serious arse consent forms signed before I do any more "trials". i actually have a theory that helen Clark is a space traveller from both a differnt time, planet and dimension. her politics actively demotes research into time travel,
have you programmed, or allowed for, a few memory times? perhaps so when you have to leave a time in a hurry you can do so? as i have a few 'jobs' i have to do, and they will require quick exit.... posted by: chris_2million (10 ) 10:32 pm, Thu 29 Sep
Sounds awfully suspicous. Quantum physists are renowned for their high ethics and morals. I would have to question your motives and interest in time travel. It is unsafe to have just anyone travelling the tides of time, there is so much potential for so much damage to be done
Hi i have something that can solve your problems cheque out my listing 4 one preloved timeing light good nik has helped in meany time related matters like getting the dloren up in runing and my phonebox please reply to DR who at the red phonebox on the corner of the world just past santas place ,thanks 4 your time ps you can buy now the timeing light 4 $one pot of gold,or a bank cheque. posted by: pepe5 (38 ) 10:36 pm, Thu 29 Sep
there is nothing wrong with the timing, the issue seems to be with the particle atomization unit, its making a clunking noise. And tends to rematerilise objects anatomically incorrect. I.e it once put a guinea pigs arse on its face, and its face on its arse.

I would like to know where you got the patent for this time machine from.As i am part in a group of professionals dedicated to creating and marketing "spare time"...I believe a copyright infringmint may have occured here by you. I will contact my research and development department ( I believe they are on the couch in the middle of research atm ) and discuss this further with them. posted by: woosh (18 ) 8:20 am, Fri 30 Sep

I want to avoid the use of nuclear power and stick with mains. Have you worked out the number of metres of cable required per year of travel. Does it vary going forward or backward? I've got the recipe for elastic copper wire. Could this help in its range. If so perhaps some of those followong this auction would like to make me an offer. posted by: bazz34 (0 ) 10:09 am, Fri 30 Sep
i havent figured out the length needed per year yet. I found out the hard way that a 20 metre cable isnt long enough for 5 years of time travel - the cord was yanked out at the wall, and I lost my cat inbetween times. retrieved the machine by pulling on the cord. Elastic copper wire could be useful for bungy time travelling.

time travel is fraught with danger, and not for the inexperienced. I suggest only seasoned/veteran time soliders answer this add. Also this auction is not a personal add for you to advise for travelling companions or single woman who like walks on the beach.
Hi, I have a dilemma that whenever I read my old diarys I can form the ability to travel backwards in time to change the fate of my dead girlfriend. The problem I'm getting is my brain is slowing increasing in size thus causing me to slowly have serious brain hemmorages...and whatever I do, I cannot stop her getting killed.

You should be able to pick up a travel adaptor from any DSE store for around $30.00, figure this cost into your final bid amount.

does it run on batteries??????? posted by: tacman1 (2 ) 11:43 am, Fri 30 Sep
The machine can be self powered if you can find a source of Uranium 235. Alternatively it can run of mains power supply if you have a very long extension cord

I'd be interested in swapping my anti-gravity device for the time travel machine. The A-G machine works but it has the darndest nack and will only ever function whilst hanging up side down. Would this be an amicable trade? posted by: stuffin (10 ) 12:15 pm, Fri 30 Sep

It appears the machine has appended to it an IDE hard drive. I would like to know what size this drive is so I can use it in my computer should I fail to satisfactorily get my Heisenberg compensator to work. The manufacturers of the Starship enterprise were successful with the compensator, but unfortunately I have been unsucessful in aquiring the engineering schematics for their design. Therefore depending on the price, and specifications of the drive, It might be a good buy either way. posted by: geoffr (12 ) 12:18 pm, Fri 30 Sep
It has a 6 gig HD for storing time co-ordinates. it is actually way over speced, the starship enterprise only had only a 500MB Hard drive. True... The Hard drive also has some games on so you can play whilst travelling time

I have reviewed the model specs and am beginning to understand the science behind your machine. I am, however, struggling with the 'phone' style mechanism that replaces the more traditional flux capacitor.

If we are ever able to develop a workable theory for time travel, we would open up the ability to create very complicated problems called paradoxes. A paradox is defined as something that contradicts itself. Here are two common examples: Let's say, for the sake of argument, that you could travel back to a time before you were born. The mere fact that you could exist in a time before you were born creates a paradox. If you were born in 1960, how could you exist in 1955?

I think that you'll find that a black leather gimp suit is better for time travel because of durability.

Further to my previous question...the trilamination of the tiny spheres with selected metals and their subjection to a magnetic field and current (sustained by the load) destabilizes the orderliness of the proton, the heavier atom and the 'tissue' of individual layers of metal.

I think I have identified one of the problems you may be having. The formula you describe earlier does not take into account Boussinesq's theory of triple intergration. Try using dt/dx = (1-v2/c2)/2. By combining this with Einsteins E=mc2, we find that dt/dx = (1-E.v2/m)/2. Research by E. Brown in 1986(Ph.D) gives a close approximation for v in these circumstances to be 88 mph, or 39.11 m/s. An estimate of mass (m) allowing for an adequate quantity of uranium would be 765 kg, so we now have dt/ posted by: phantomchickenz (7 ) 3:18 pm, Fri 30 Sep

Blimey - when I asked my last question at 2.17 there wre approx 17,000 hits - an hour later (now) it's over 22,000!!! Don't you wish your machine was working and you could just travel to when the auction had been completed? posted by: autumnwinds (348 ) 3:18 pm, Fri 30 Sep
I am gettin sick of all these questions. i do worry that people are not taking this seriously. i put a lot of heart into that machine, and I dotn just want to sell it to some goof as a novelty
we noticed a sizeable disruption on the 1st of april this year and its taken us this long to locate you and your machine,the damage caused was immense but your efforts unwittingly triggered a bio-shperoid that randomly eradicated one of mankinds next largest threat of extinction,congradulations,but don't attempt again please,there's so much at stake! posted by: moritz (21 ) 3:18 pm, Fri 30 Sep
How could this be more damaging than 36 killer dolphins with poison dart guns?
... so we now have dt/dx = (1-2E)/2 = 1/2 - E. It is currently Friday afternoon so energy levels (E) are tending to zero, so lim(E->0) dt/dx = 1/2. It is now simple intergration to get to t = x/2, rearranging to x = 2t. Now, simply decide how far (in seconds) you wish to travel, multiply by two, and enter into the distance field in the 2000 x 2000 travel matrix (which I'm sure you already have).

Do you have the flux capacitor to go with this? I can't see it in the photo.. posted by: studio1 (208 ) 5:06 pm, Tue 27 Sep
This model does not use a flux capacitor to reduce the time dilation effect. Are you sure you know what you are doing ?
Does this run on mains? What's the reserve? What will postage be to Palmerston North? posted by: izzy_dude (59 ) 8:24 pm, Tue 27 Sep
The machine can be self powered if you can find a source of Uranium 235. Alternatively it can run of mains power supply. Postage anywhere in NZ, anytime $5

I've got a space continuum transfunctioner. Would you consider swaping it for that? It's a bit rough and ready and blows a little bule smoke but appears to be running ok. posted by: allmypukunui (8 ) 10:23 am, Wed 28 Sep
space continuum transfunctioners are old school. I used to have one and it blew blue smoke too, just before it blew up. Get rid of it now.
I'd like to go back & see my Great Uncle Rodney when he was 18 because he skulled a jug of beer in only 3.2 seconds & I'd certainly like to see that!

Certainly an event worthy of time travel. And if any one can get this puppy working, its you - with your fancy two red stars, and forth form education.
Will this machine be capable of going forwards as well as backwards it time. I built one in 2052 that only went backwards and I haven't been able to get back to my time. I need one that can go boths ways so I can come back to this time to feed the cat I have. posted by: jd10 (97 ) 2:07 pm, Wed 28 Sep
interesting dilema, but simply answered by the formula : dt = dt' . (1 - v²/c²)1/2 which i have designed the device around, in theory past and future travel should be possible. I have sympathy for you and your cat, but when amateurs play with time travel this is what happens.

Does it have fast forward, rewind and pause? posted by: izzy_dude (59 ) 9:21 am, Thu 29 Sep
Time is a little more complicated than fast forwarding, rewinding and pause. The time reference dilator is capable of such functions but the theory behind it is somewhat unproven. It does have an eject button if thats any help ?

If I am successful with my bid, do you think there is sufficient grunt in the machine to go back to the beginning of this auction, wipe out all memory of it, so I don't have to pay you. posted by: bubbs29 (55 ) 4:04 pm, Thu 29 Sep
if the auction dosnt take place, you would never have the time machine, so you would be stuck in the past, with no machine to get back to the present. time is a dangerous thing to play with, and you really need to carefully consider the consequences, before you start mucking with the past, and breaching time continuation
Ha! Call me an amateur. I just fixed my time machine. All I had to do was put the AA batteries in the other way round and now it goes forwards in time! See you suckers later, Im going back to the future. Oh and as a heads up to the winner of this auction everything in the future is chrome posted by: jd10 (97 ) 4:29 pm, Thu 29 Sep
Please note AA batteries were only invented in 1968 so dont go back beyond this time. Also they will be phased in 2010 due to the invention of the organic fuel cell, brought on by the severe depletion of the worlds battery resources. So dont go forward in time past this date.
Yes I do know what I am doing.. without the flux capacitor I can't modulate the 21 gigawatts of energy I need to transmogrify the time / space continuum. So far all attempts to locate a flux capacitor have proved fruitless, hence why I haven't been able to time travel. They've got them in the future, but I can't get there to get one. posted by: studio1 (208 ) 4:39 pm, Thu 29 Sep
I dont know a great deal about flux capacitors as my machine does not use one. You could try getting in contact with Marty McFly, his delorean time machine is based on Flux capaitation and he maybe able to supply you with one. May pay to get a couple cos they dont last to long apparently. I think I saw one for sale on trademe a while back..

unfortunately its all in my head, and a bit hard to explain to people not hip with the theories behing time travel. you seems to have the parts down, but you also need a positive, can do attitude, and a certain amount of qunatum physics knowledge. And an awful lot of patience. it amazes me how many people wish to use time travel for sexual gratification, it is not what it was designed for.
I am particularly saddened to have been outbid. However $9.52 was the limit of my budget (being as it is 76% of my annual income). By the way, what are these things that go whoosh when they pass my buggy on the road? posted by: rogerp (295 ) 4:48 pm, Thu 29 Sep

The testing I have carried out to date involved animals. I received varying results and dont want to disclose to much because the SPCA may get wind of this. Im sure if you were able to get it working correctly it would be safe for all organic life forms.

You see this is the issue. people like you who want to experiment with time and see "what would happen". What if the earth did fold in on its self...then what. Whoops ......!

No it does not allow sideways travel through time as this unit was only designed to work 1-dimesionaly. It also does not depend on any non-renewable hydrocarbon resource for power. I can confirm this is a genuine work-in-progress and you would only be cheating yourself by not getting it working.

I want to avoid the use of nuclear power and stick with mains. Have you worked out the number of metres of cable required per year of travel. Does it vary going forward or backward? I've got the recipe for elastic copper wire. Could this help in its range. If so perhaps some of those followong this auction would like to make me an offer. posted by: bazz34 (0 ) 10:09 am, Fri 30 Sep
i havent figured out the length needed per year yet. I found out the hard way that a 20 metre cable isnt long enough for 5 years of time travel - the cord was yanked out at the wall, and I lost my cat inbetween times. retrieved the machine by pulling on the cord. Elastic copper wire could be useful for bungy time travelling.

time travel is fraught with danger, and not for the inexperienced. I suggest only seasoned/veteran time soliders answer this add. Also this auction is not a personal add for you to advise for travelling companions or single woman who like walks on the beach.
Hi, I have a dilemma that whenever I read my old diarys I can form the ability to travel backwards in time to change the fate of my dead girlfriend. The problem I'm getting is my brain is slowing increasing in size thus causing me to slowly have serious brain hemmorages...and whatever I do, I cannot stop her getting killed. Is there somehow your travel "device" is able to source me an alternate means of time travel, to save my dead girlfriend and stop my brain from causing me serious damage, ev posted by: abiggs (16 ) 10:56 am, Fri 30 Sep

It appears the machine has appended to it an IDE hard drive. I would like to know what size this drive is so I can use it in my computer should I fail to satisfactorily get my Heisenberg compensator to work. The manufacturers of the Starship enterprise were successful with the compensator, but unfortunately I have been unsucessful in aquiring the engineering schematics for their design. Therefore depending on the price, and specifications of the drive, It might be a good buy either way. posted by: geoffr (12 ) 12:18 pm, Fri 30 Sep
It has a 6 gig HD for storing time co-ordinates. it is actually way over speced, the starship enterprise only had only a 500MB Hard drive. True... The Hard drive also has some games on so you can play whilst travelling time

I have reviewed the model specs and am beginning to understand the science behind your machine. I am, however, struggling with the 'phone' style mechanism that replaces the more traditional flux capacitor. I understand that in conjunction with a magnetic field and the load, the 'phone' uses the hierarchical structure of the cosmos as a timer! The trilamination of the tiny spheres with selected metals and their subjection to a magnetic field and current (sustained by the load) destabilizes the posted by: james185 (9 ) 12:36 pm, Fri 30 Sep

If we are ever able to develop a workable theory for time travel, we would open up the ability to create very complicated problems called paradoxes. A paradox is defined as something that contradicts itself. Here are two common examples: Let's say, for the sake of argument, that you could travel back to a time before you were born. The mere fact that you could exist in a time before you were born creates a paradox. If you were born in 1960, how could you exist in 1955?

I don't have an a'nti-gravity' machine, but I do have an 'anti-gravy' machine, it dries up your sunday roast should someone force watery gravy on you, it's really useful, would you swap it for this? posted by: richardrayner (11 ) 2:29 pm, Fri 30 Sep
An anti gravy machine i could use. that sounds really really useful.
Bugger. Can you remove that $3000 bid by Time Machine1. I really do want to buy this stuff. I reckon this is art. Also, 7 of 9 is really hot and this is my only chance to meet her. Paul Swain said he had a gimp outfit but I said I didn't want to wear anything used. posted by: brynn (92 ) 2:29 pm, Fri 30 Sep
If you won the auction you could just go back in time and not bid $3000
Is there any warranty with the time machine? If Yes, then how many years? Can I get refund if it doesn't work? Is it authentic? posted by: fungming (21 ) 2:29 pm, Fri 30 Sep
I apologise for some of the "idiotic" questions. Yes this is a real auction. No refund if it dosnt work as it is unfinished, i can't crack it. But i am straight up.
will using this device eliminate the need for toiletries, as i can keep returning to my freshly make up applied self, or will i need a 'perpetually-made-up modem' and if so, can this create an unwanted momentary lapse of reason?? i wouldnt want to get caught out posted by: lyssa2 (56 ) 2:30 pm, Fri 30 Sep
In a funny paradox, the time machine actually increases the need for toiletries. I dobnt know how or why, but my Mascara useage went up 10 fold once i started on the machine - Weird
Sorry, I had it all wrong from the start, thought it is a stolen modern wire and cable sculpture from Te Papa, would like to bit, does it has amanual. posted by: boer (994 ) 2:30 pm, Fri 30 Sep

Hi The bids seem to be getting astronomical. Rather than get into a bidding war, could you quote me a 'buy before' or 'buy now' or 'buy later' price please. I prefer a 'buy 1000 years later price' if you have one. Cheers! posted by: gladys8 (3 ) 2:32 pm, Fri 30 Sep
this will be an antique in 1000 years you wouldnt be able to aford it sorry.
Hi. Are you sure you're not secretly a DSE employee?... or perhaps the Big Cheese, Dick, himself?... and just made this listing up so you could push DSE products? posted by: nzed4 (1 ) 2:34 pm, Fri 30 Sep
Nah straight up, I have been applying on and off for the last two years to get a job at DSE, but apparently I am not qualified enough. Dick is kinda a hero to me, (after Bob Saget) and i do weant to follow in his footsteps, and sell crap electronic gear for crazy prices
Is this the stratiscloric time machine that is capable of sending bald goats to the future posted by: oldbaldgoat (51 ) 2:43 pm, Fri 30 Sep
win the auction, get it working, try it. I'm sure it would be able to if you can get the goat to sit still.
Seller Comment: How is everyone finding out about this auction ??
I think that you'll find that a black leather gimp suit is better for time travel because of durability. This is particularly important for withstanding laborious stop-motion sequences of plants growing around your house and sedimentary soil building up around you before you reach the time period with cute dumb blonds walking around in togas. posted by: brynn (92 ) 2:57 pm, Fri 30 Sep
I dont Lycra hel[ps with wind resistance, and makes my butt look smaller

Further to my previous question...the trilamination of the tiny spheres with selected metals and their subjection to a magnetic field and current (sustained by the load) destabilizes the orderliness of the proton, the heavier atom and the 'tissue' of individual layers of metal. The matter then seeks to re-establish itself in the 'fractal set'. The trilamination inserts a 'curve' where there ought to be none, between the atomic structure and the next higher context of presence which is normally posted by: james185 (9 ) 3:00 pm, Fri 30 Sep

How did I find out about it??? There was an article about it on tomorrows news at 6. Be warned, Paul Holmes intends to interview you soon as well and the Labour party is about to introduce a new time tax based on how long it takes you to travel thru 1 hour. I'm lucky that it will be cheap for me as an an amateur traveller it still takes me 60 minutes and so I only have to pay the base rate plus GST. posted by: golf.geek.nz (22 ) 3:01 pm, Fri 30 Sep
I don't know why the labour party is so damn anti time travel. I hardly think an interview on prime is going to "promote" the auction - look what it did for paul Holmes career
The answer to your question re: How is everybody finding out about your auction? Has to do with the time looping phenomenom stated earlier, an email was sent approximately 3 hours ago to one person and the time continuum is looping with different forwarded email addresses withthe URL Link to this auction. This was a result of the future purchaser going back in time to 3 hours ago and promoting the auction to make himself famous, what a big head eh? posted by: brettsky1 (38 ) 3:01 pm, Fri 30 Sep
Strangely enough that makes perfect sense. thanks

can i sleep with your sister?? posted by: saffa (9 ) 3:17 pm, Fri 30 Sep
umm I would have to check with her, b ut my guess would be no. Still no harm in asking, she is probably gonna want to see some pictures
I think I have identified one of the problems you may be having. The formula you describe earlier does not take into account Boussinesq's theory of triple intergration. Try using dt/dx = (1-v2/c2)/2. By combining this with Einsteins E=mc2, we find that dt/dx = (1-E.v2/m)/2. Research by E. Brown in 1986(Ph.D) gives a close approximation for v in these circumstances to be 88 mph, or 39.11 m/s. An estimate of mass (m) allowing for an adequate quantity of uranium would be 765 kg, so we now have dt/ posted by: phantomchickenz (7 ) 3:18 pm, Fri 30 Sep
Everyone whos anyone knows that Boussinesqs was a no good drunk with crazy ideas.
Blimey - when I asked my last question at 2.17 there wre approx 17,000 hits - an hour later (now) it's over 22,000!!! Don't you wish your machine was working and you could just travel to when the auction had been completed? posted by: autumnwinds (348 ) 3:18 pm, Fri 30 Sep
I am gettin sick of all these questions. i do worry that people are not taking this seriously. i put a lot of heart into that machine, and I dotn just want to sell it to some goof as a novelty
we noticed a sizeable disruption on the 1st of april this year and its taken us this long to locate you and your machine,the damage caused was immense but your efforts unwittingly triggered a bio-shperoid that randomly eradicated one of mankinds next largest threat of extinction,congradulations,but don't attempt again please,there's so much at stake! posted by: moritz (21 ) 3:18 pm, Fri 30 Sep
How could this be more damaging than 36 killer dolphins with poison dart guns?
... so we now have dt/dx = (1-2E)/2 = 1/2 - E. It is currently Friday afternoon so energy levels (E) are tending to zero, so lim(E->0) dt/dx = 1/2. It is now simple intergration to get to t = x/2, rearranging to x = 2t. Now, simply decide how far (in seconds) you wish to travel, multiply by two, and enter into the distance field in the 2000 x 2000 travel matrix (which I'm sure you already have).

Hi, Rather than get into a bidding war, could you quote me a 'buy before' or 'buy now' or 'buy later' price please. (I prefer a 'buy 1000 years later price' if you have one). Cheers! posted by: gladys8 (3 ) 3:19 pm, Fri 30 Sep
trade me dosnt facilliate the concept of time buying their whole "buy now" function is so dated and so "now". No consideration to people who wnt to buy in the future
... NOTE: Many people have indicated they wish to travel backward in time. A laymans description of why this is impossible is given on www.howstuffworks.com, but basically wormhole theory dictates that your stiff out of luck. Happy travelling! posted by: phantomchickenz (7 ) 3:19 pm, Fri 30 Sep
Yip cause the internet is always right. I have read lots of stuff on the www which simply is not true. Just look up "moon landing". The internet is full of cranks and hoax sites dispelling people on their desire to travel time

I have always wanted a time machine. i have always thought it would be cool to take a coke can back to the Jurrasic period, find a dynosaur and shove it down its throat just to piss off geologists 250million years later - or go give myself a copy of windows xp and a computer to run it on 25 years ago! posted by: mr_fisk_it (10 ) 3:27 pm, Fri 30 Sep
Yeah, it sounds like a cool idea, and would really confuse the bejusus out the whitecoats. I like it. if you win i will give you a 10 % discount on the winning bid
Hi my name is Gill Bates.
