I haven't really thought through the details.

It would probably take decades to prepare, and to figure out what the best approach would be.

It also depends on how much I could bring back.

If it's just me and what I can carry, I think I would just bring a few things to demonstrate the tech. Maybe a high power flashlight and solar charger. The important part would be a detailed guide on how to re-enginer everything we have today, as well as the science behind it. Really, I think scientific knowledge would be the most impactful.

If this was a huge operation with near infinite resources, I would send back a giant self sustaining compound with a general purpose factory. I think it would probably be possible to sustain a roughly 60s level of technology indefinitely on a small scale until the rest of the world caught up

Depends on the rules.

Round trip to a 'read only' version of the past? I'd like to see the dinosaurs.

Round trip that can make changes? Probably a few hundred or even thousand years ago, so I could give them modern technology, information about climate change, try to educate people on social issues, etc. I'd create detailed instructions and try to make a religion out of it. There's no guarantee it would work, but I'd hopefully return to a solarpunk utopia. Honestly not sure if I would try this, as it would basically overwrite everything I've ever known.

One way trip? I'd probably pass, unless I can de-age. I would definitely want to go back to being a child with all my current knowledge.

What does gender have to do with it? Do men not have skin?

You should probably use a moisturizer at least. And spf isn't a bad idea if you will be outside.

Really? I'm in my 20s, and pretty much everyone I know smokes. I think it's just less acceptable to smoke alone or in public.

The carcinization of desert mammals

I feel that. I wish I was neurotypical, cis, and mentally well :(

Doesn't Linux already have a bunch of forks? I'm using the CachyOS kernel, for example

It's a chicken and egg thing, I think. It's interpreted that way because it's so rare.

I bet this is peak force is measured at the base of the jaw, meaning the teeth at the tip would exert significantly lower force. So it might be possible to escape a small alligator, I'm not sure.

The "default" for lack of a better term

There is a better term, it's 'cis'

I'm not sure if I would really say it's that uplifting, but if you like puzzle and card games, you'll love Inscryption

Celeste!

It's about overcoming internal struggles to achieve something. (something I'm still fighting with in real life, bad place mentally here too.)

Listening to the soundtrack always makes me feel a bit better though.

It's cute, fun, and challenging (although never difficult in a frustrating way)
