Hmmm, I dunno it consumes alot of energy to remain into 3-space for an extended period of time. The good news is that they are only expecting 150,000 people to attend the festival. Maybe we can find a parking spot.

Yes, the broadcast was interesting to see. But there is probably a much better view when looking from the edge of the crater 190 meters away from the landing site.

Day early, mate. He didn't step out until the 21st (UTC, anyway). You've got a time machine, and you're wasting time??

Well,

Yes, about eight hours early I believe. Front row seats at the rim of the crater are expensive and it takes a while to coordinate the 700nm viewing ports so all 65,535 viewers get an unobstructed view. Besides, everyone wants to see them land too.

What kind of time travel? The one from back to the future or the one from hot tub time machine? Meaning are we talking branching time lines here or one self-coherent spacetime?

If you know the novel/movie "Time Machine", then you know why it's not a good idea to travel into the future: You will not feel at home in your original time frame any more, and the future will become your present. I know, quoting R. Kelly has become politically incorrect recently, but he puts like this, and I totally agree:
"I wanna have to find my way, and I don't wanna have a clue. Just let the universe surprise me"
So my only option would be to travel into the past. What I'd definitely like to see the most are dinosaurs. My favorite time would be the Jurassic period, as the Cretaceous period with its T-Rex and Velociraptor is too mainstream for me. I'd prefer to see the Brontosaurus, the Allosaurus, the Stegosaurus, the Diplodocus and the Archaeopteryx.

Pity about the invisible observer bit. I'd like to go back to the library at Alexandria and save the lot.

Hi All,
Got to work late, sat down and am thinking about how to account for this. Being a dozy so & so I tend to fill in my timesheet early and put 8 hours for today, so do I do 8 hours today or 6 today and then 2 extra next week? or do I wait for the time when I have mucho work to do and just put in the time then and not claim over time? Trying to be honest about this! Opinions please, waste the time I owe or save it for the rush I can see coming (when I could accrue overtime)...
|
|
|
|

did you get the work done that you were to have done by now (or a matching proportion thereof)?
If so put in 8 hours.

I got what I was supposed to do, done by Tuesday afternoon. Spent yesterday doing some exploratory testing...
|
|
|
|
|
oh well, if they are picky about the time on the clock just say you spent half your lunchtime(s) doing that - already done an extra 2.5 hours just last week...

Our company policy is that if you earn comp time, or need to make up missed time, you have to do it (take the comp time or make up the missed time) before the end of the pay period.
If it were me, I'd simply work an extra hour for a couple of days, and record the time accurately (6 for today, and 9 for the next two days).

I agree, make it back as soon as reasonably possible. Looks better on you that way, just in case it's ever raised as an issue...

Yup that is what I am gonna do, if I get in trouble I'm pointing them to you guys!

I think that's what I'm going to do. The awkward thing is I can see it being all hands on deck in a few weeks (certain people who should have signed something didn't  )
