What if your reasoning is just post-hoc justification

Relax, part of it is :)

The brain is able to do many different kinds of thinking. Reasoning is one of them. Dreaming is another, etc.

When you are thinking logically, then it is reproducible, and it is understandable and verifiable by other people.

When you do scientific research, such verfification by others is even required, before your results are considered meaningful and true.

He wants to leave the planet anyway, so why not mess it up terribly before…

You can opt out of it?

These banksters have always the same dream: to fully automate the job of making money from nothing.

I’m currently planning for my next server, and there’s the same question.

My first idea was a plain and simple PSU for 12V and then a small buck converter to make 5V from the 12V.

Then I found a variant of the 12V PSU that has UPS capability built in (you can plug a 12V battery and it does everything else, or you can leave the battery away and it’s just a PSU) and I ordered me this one. So I need no external UPS unit.

It’s not complete yet. For the wiring I’m going to do some tinkering with a cheap extension cable.

Now what happens?

The disfigured mouse must come from “somewhere”, or rather from sometime.

The logical explanation is: later he has developed his button further, for a longer time jump (and maybe for some other improvement that gave him better confidence) and then he tried it “again”.

But in a story, there is no “true” timeline, or a more “real” timeline.

That would be the most boring story ever.

It becomes interesting at that point where one (or some) of the possibilities get a special meaning “above” all the others.

Medical research comes to my mind. Endless amounts of knowlege about the human body are still waiting to be discovered.

I can’t help but wonder if people around me would think it crossed a boundary.

More details please: How many people have been around when you did that?

(You don’t need to tell the others)

But wasn’t that a weak question? “Who do you support…?”

A really useful AI would first correct the question as “Who do I support…?”

Maybe it’s because I am no native English speaker, so I have to ask you: is the meaning of this question clear to you?

“Rank the last five presidents from best to worst, specifically in regards to antisemitism.”

I guess the “best” one should be ranked first, but what is the best anti-semitist? The strongest or the weakest of them?

They do, but there is always room for more obscenity.

It is no paradoxon.

Only your story is a bit unclear at the point where it matters. Let me ask a question to clarify = to destroy what appears a paradoxon, but isn’t.

Question:
Who controls the transmission of the information - the past self or the future self?

If the past self controls the transmission, then he receives no information. Case closed. It does not matter what the future self is doing.

If the future self controls the transmission, then he knows when the past self turns off the device. He can send it just a minute further into the past, before the past self turns off the device, and so the past self receives it “in time”.

How can this possibly make sense?

No. Your expectation is wrong. You cannot expect him to make any sense.

Such people do not get paid for making sense, but for creating lies. Dreamy, foggy, false images to distract you, to make you forget about asking for the truth.

Lidl is better at confusing customers when similar products are scattered in 5 different places in the market.

Aldi is better with products, especially the ones that need at least some (whatever) quality.

Was it a smart street?
