    And also let me know which time period you would travel back to if you had a time machine and could only use it once?”

    I mean, is there any valid answer aside from the '90s? '80s were cool but still too backwards, plus you still got the cool stuff from then in the later decade, anything before is “I don’t want to die of a minor sickness” territory.

        Yeah, seems like an exciting way to kill myself. Better than my current life plans so why not? No one said I had to survive in the past, just visit.

          Oh I’d try my best to survive. I wonder how much shit I can cram in the time machine; I can probably rig a generator to run off a wood fire

            The first diesel engine ran on coal dust. I’m sure you could modify a diesel generator to run on charcoal dust, which you could make with a wood fire.

              I had been thinking straight-up steam, hadn’t even considered charcoal/bio diesel.

              Though I do like the wood gas idea; should be easy to retune a propane engine for it
