What would be the least impactful way of using time travel?

JonsJava@lemmy.world to Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world – 78 points –

Started as a shower thought (literally in the shower), but decided to make it more open-ended.

My answer to this would be "watch future seasons of anime that I am waiting on".

I don't see how that could cause a huge ripple through time.

The world has yet to notice me traveling one day into the future every 24 hours.

There's a quote in a book I like along those lines, that goes: "First of all, we are all time travellers. The vast majority of us manage only one day per day."

I've always really liked that

We travel into the future at the blindingly fast rate of one second per second.

Astronauts, on the other hand...

We’ve noticed, but we do the same thing so the net change is zero.
