i would travel back in time, to roughly 1010AD and i'd bring loads of cool shit with me, then sell my "technology" to the locals perhaps show them how to use it and live like a king! for the rest of my life, perhaps i'd bring them cotton socks, a pen, something electrical, pliers probably, a loom. that stuff would probably make things alot smoother
You would've been called a witch and burned alive, man.
haha, it's all in the marketing perhaps I could use the technology to trick all the users into thinking im a god messenger. that way profits of being a prohpet, and win win

First, I would cry really hard because I would love to go to Ancient Rome, but I would get my ass kicked because a. My spoken Latin isn't fluent (whose is?) and b. I'm female, so it's not like anyone would listen to me anyway if I told them I came from the future and I have knowledge of all sorts of wonderful stuff and hey, Cicero, don't let your your wife marry your daughter to that jerk.

I think I'd enjoy First Nations life, but I'd pick a time long enough ago that the European explorers wouldn't bother me. Such an uncomplicated existence. I like balance.

hmmmm, perhaps id have to change it to things their actually a little accustomed too, perhaps i could just store like gradually improving stuff to "invent" without actually doing anything. like their loom, improve it with metal bolts or something. ( i know thats a bit of a stupid improvement but yh. hence still living like a king, or bring a big gun.

Oh, I can't speak Latin at all (beyond a few geek quotes), but I'm assuming that any chrono-location device also came with a specific chrono-spatial linguistic converter :)

The guys with the guns makes the rules. or you could present them as magical artifacts found in ancient caves.

hence starting lots of rumours and old traditions, maybe i could be king arthur, so it would work i reckon as long as we either go with "give me lots of money for this stuff or i'll shoot you" or even " these magical relics where found deep deep down inside the caves of wonder, give me money for them now" could work :p

I would travel back to 1250 BC, around the time of the Trojan War.
1250 BC was during the reign of Ramses the Great (according to the conventional chronology). Although that's a great period to be in, if you're in the Egyptian empire, the Trojan War never really happened! You'd need a dimensional shifter to gain access to a myth parallel instead.

I would teleport back in time 2 minutes, to tell myself not to make this post.
HOW DO YOU LIKE THEM PARADOXES?
