If you could send 8 GB of data to past yourself (let's say 10 years ago) what would you send?

A repeating pattern of 1s and 0s that forms the message: stay on the straight and narrow- and enjoy being outside more than you already do.

a 23 bytes txt file that says "buy nvidia, buy bitcoin, buy ram"
and ~8GB of AI generated pics and clips of everyone i know so i can blackmail them with

>>108013753
kids these days won't understand the meme but it's because alarms back in the day snoozed only 9 minutes at a time, 12:18 means anon hit snooze twice and needs to wake tf up

10 years ago isn't enough to unfuck my life.
>>
>>108013753
Some useful information on what not to do, some lottery numbers.
>>
10 years ago some schizo in my class was trying to get us all to buy Bitcoin when it was like $100. I could have easily bought $1000 worth then. That’s really the only thing I’d say.

A video of me telling myself to be careful when I cut vegetables because in ten years you will cut a nerve in your finger, you will have to get an operation to sew it back together and you will be sitting there wondering if it's gonna heal up right because it takes months to cure before you can feel the results.

You could fit 100 textbooks in 8gb. Bad constraints OP. Literally every profitable and worthwhile bit of knowledge you've ever accumulated in your life could fit in a single MB.

this op is very jeet coded

>>108013810
same, brother, I need at least 20 but 30 would be better

>>108013839
The problem is past me wouldn't read that either. so the entire exercise is pointless. Maybe if I could embed the information into the middle of doujins that retard might have a gander.

The private keys associated with all solved Bitcoin puzzles and charts for every stock, shitcoin, and audio files for every hit song released that doesn't have an easily identifiable singer.

Maybe a nice movie and some songs that came out in the last 8 years.

I don't get why you guys are so focused on money

Also info on my abusive ex wife

You don't get it because you're severely obtuse or you already have it. These are the only two branches.

actually the joke is that it's almost 12:18. the joke is that there is no punchline.

I should have bought bitcoin when I first heard of it and they were worthless. Like literally pennies for one.

Probably what >>108013801 said.
Also if we go back even more years, the PRISM NSA Snowden leaks so the information could be known ahead of time.

stock market data and the admonishment to beat my wife
if i had smacked her around from time to time when she needed it, we'd still be together

Bruh a history of stock prices and bitcoin prices.

Anything else is kinda stupid.

I'd send myself the door code for my apartment building that one time in 2015 when I was stuck outside without my keys in the middle of the night in -20 degree weather with a stomach bug making me shit every five minutes..
>>
>>108013753
nothing because changing the past wouldn't affect this timeline
>>
>>108013753
I'd still be a useless teenager at that time, but:
- Provide some proof it's me without showing any of the accomplishments I've made, showing accolades would make past me even lazier than he already was
- Unsurprisingly, I'd tell that broke ass to buy bitcoin
- "Women are a waste of time"
- Given time, I'd build a game or service for him to sell (he wouldn't know how to update it or anything), some way to make money so bitcoin can be bought, even if it still makes him lazy

Either that or I'd send him goatse. Who fucking knows. I worry that giving my past-self any handouts at all would make my future life even worse than it already is. Had to learn how to not be a useless leech by myself.

I'd send a text file telling me to not trust my parents to even remember their own policies and to get a job now since nobody will care if you don't despite what they say
then a text file listing out some health issues with pets to hopefully prevent their deaths
then a text file with future knowledge that might be profitable
then a game that is under 7.9 gbs, there are lots of good options and past me would appreciate a free game

A detailed strategy for becoming the richest person in the world using future knowledge of stock prices and important events.

This would include patents for a number of profitable inventions, ideally those which are simple enough to have been reasonably created by me. Also that "attention is all you need" paper and the source code for/information on a number of AI projects, especially alphafold.

PCB and shell schematics for a modern ultra lightweight mouse, which I can use to start a gaming peripherals company if seed money from the above falls through. Plans for creating a handful of other simple products in the same vein, should any of my plans fail.

A text file outlining my personal philosophy and why/how past me should come to the adopt the same mindset. Also, recommendations for what to do/not to do once I become extremely rich.

cats live up to 20 years, yes they could
but even if they couldn't, some had sudden seizures, some had cancers that were only diagnosed when they only had a week left to live, and one died from complications due to a surgery several days after that nobody caught until it was too late
the last one was especially bad since she was fine for the first couple days after the surgery, then the moment the weekend hit she got real bad(our vet isn't available on weekends and there was nowhere else to take her) then she died Sunday night, if we had known on Thursday or Friday that something was wrong she might have gotten to the vet before it closed

>"Your job plan won't work, just do what dad does for a living and invest as much as you can into Nvidia and sell it all on 10/28/2025"
Just telling my past self those two things would skip 5 years worth of working at McDonalds and help me out financially in a major way.

Would sending the source code for blender back 10 years be helpful?

there would probably be some compatibility issues but people would learn from it right?

also I'd send back a bunch of research papers and release them into the world
