First of all, no one would understand you, but how someone already pointed out, make a spool with copper and spin it. For bonus points, put a iron slab inside the spool

Edit: as someone pointed out you kinda need a magnet

hypertown ,

Plain copper will get you nowhere. Adding iron slab also won’t help. You have to have magnetic field to generate electricity

bloubz ,

Why wouldn’t they understand? People speak other languages than English

Ever tried Chaucer? And he was only 14th century.

bloubz ,

English has changed a lot (no I’ve not read a lot of poetry in languages other than my own), some others may have changed less. Maybe Aramaic, Hebrew, Arabic. Greek has changed but some people know ancient Greek

@Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

eh language barriers are generally overstated i think, people with completely unrelated languages develop pidgins within the decade, and if you’re dropped into a place where they speak some complete gibberish like french you’ll still just naturally figure it out given a year or so of being forced to endure it.

Papercrane ,

That is very true, but maybe they would just kill you or think that you are crazy before you would have the chance to actually change mankind

Swedneck ,
@Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

maybe, but frankly i think it’s at least equally likely that they just see you as a blessing from the heavens and frankly get a little too enthusiastic about your knowledge.

Something to do with turbines.

Water wheels seem to spin a turbine. Maybe it generated current or something. Similar with windmills? Gyroscope or something.

Solar ? Quite clearly magical and a heretic, likely to burn me at the stake. Steam power pushes steam through A turbine maybe ?

Lightening sky electricity. Get a bunch of metal and kites. Die.

edinbruh ,

Solar are LEDs. But instead of putting electricity into that light comes out, you push the light in to get electricity out.

DarkDarkHouse ,
@DarkDarkHouse@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Photovoltaic isn’t the only solar. Probably much easier back then to direct mirrors at a kettle to drive a steam turbine.

WarmSoda ,

You’re thinking of steam.
Create enough steam to turn a turbine that turns a magnet wrapped with copper.

Fun fact, nuclear power is just a powerful way to create more steam.

Mojojojo1993 ,

Ah. So turbines are steam. So ,magnets are key. Magic metal

RiderExMachina ,

Spinning an iron bar between another iron bar wrapped with one thin copper piece makes zap light.

It also makes a magnet for convenience.

Mojojojo1993 ,

So magic ? To the burning pile

RiderExMachina ,

Joke’s on you, that’s my fetish

Mojojojo1993 ,

Kinky

For anyone interested a simple way is to wrap copper wire around a magnet. Static electricity was also one of the first ways people started noticing electricity.

Parlor tricks might be able to get you far when you time travel to the ancient past.

Pizzasgood ,

Wrap it in the wire, then spin one of them. That part's important! Won't do anything if you don't spin it.

Next they just need to find a way to charge their phone.

abraxas ,

Note, my “go back in time” kit includes my phone with a waterproof case AND a solar charger…

And what do you know, so focused on the charger I forgot to download anything. Moooom, can we go back to the 21st century? I gotta peeeeeee.

Sotuanduso ,

86 GB? Yike.

SkyeStarfall ,

86GB is nothing for a condensed form of all human knowledge

AngryCommieKender ,

Yeah. I had to expand your comment to see what you said, but when I read 86GB I audibly said, “that’s not bad at all.”

I can fit a summary of all human knowledge on an external 1TB hard drive, and still have room for Skyrim and all the mods that I want.

Sotuanduso ,

But it is a lot to fit on a phone.

Keep it on a 128gb MicroSD.

thantik , (edited ) in really makes you think

Is that… Ivan Ooze? Looks like an updated/re-rendered/modernized version of the robot that Ivan Ooze takes over in the first power rangers movie.

buycurious ,

I think it’s Megatron from the slightly older Transformers movies.

thrawn ,

07 yeah. He got a different design every single movie now that I think about it, whereas Prime only got abs in the third then a total change in the fourth

fox2263 ,

Wait. Prime got a six pack? Or anti locking brakes?

Which come to think of it, is more realistic than getting ripped but er … I’m gonna go with he got ripped.

thrawn ,

No yeah he got a six pack. Specifically six. It was weird, and kind of hard to tell they were meant to be abs. Even weirder, that was the sole change, he was otherwise visually identical.

I mentioned he got a full redesign for the fourth movie. For that one, he got huge pecs and a bodybuilder physique.

In my old condo you didn’t really put the trash bag in the dumpster. The raccoons were waiting on the dumpster and you’d hand the bag to them basically.

I know Lemmy is for nerds because there’s a heated esoteric argument about bacteria and assholes on a shitpost about eating ass.

somethingsnappy ,

I’m literally a microbiologist, but I’m scared of weighing in. In short, eat that ass.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Also a microbiologist, don’t eat that ass, shit’s gross.
