The synth and 10 jars of saffron. I’ll learn to play music like a bard and be fucking rich selling little bits of spices while I travel (and eventually be murdered as a witch).
Aha! I knew someone else would go with the saffron gambit. Especially if you get to specify that it’s really packed in there.
I would probably mix in some whole nutmeg, cinnamon and cloves with the saffron as it was generally more popular in England at the time and the variety would probably mean more of my wares purchased by at each stop to save me needing to travel further. Travel being so gods awful at the time mitigating the risks a little bit would be worth it I think.
The spices and the laser pointer? You can just pretend to be a spice trader and when needed, blind people to escape.
The dab pen and magic keyboard were tempting, but De. Wesker made a good point ab out witchcraft.
Motorcycle might be cool because you can melt it down or disassemble it once you run out of fuel.
Another important question is Medieval times where?
Motorcycle can run off distilled alcohol if you’re crafty.

Still makes a big difference. China? Bottle rockets are just like ok, you have some bottle rockets. India? Spices are just okay, you have some spices. India might appreciate the keyboard more than Europeans, like “nice, a versatile harmonium!” vs “OMG Satan” like you might get in Europe. North America and you might be able to convince a tribe that you’re a shaman with Super Mushrooms using the LSD.
The motorcycle had better be a dirt bike or it’s not going to be of much use except maybe in China or where there were vestiges of Roman roads.

the firearm and bullets have distinct utility.

Hunting and self defense is not about being a dick.
As far as wanting to go down in history, not sure how that helps you after your demise.
Hunting is about being a dick though.
Medieval times aren’t exactly known for their paved roads.
I think no one around here realizes how fucking insane a 5 W laser pointer is, it’s not blinding people level, it’s more like, don’t shine it at anything white or you might blind yourself level.
For reference the highest laser security classification starts at 0.5 W.
Maybe I’m exaggerating here but 5 W is definitely a lot.
So yeah, I’m down with the laser pointer.
That’s a good point. If it’s strong enough to start a fire, that’s serious power. The only issue is running out of battery power.

Does spice melange count as one of the spices?
It is the only spice that counts.
The spice must flow.
As it’s written!
None.
I iz ded.
Might be able to use the uranium to heat water for a steam turbine generator.
Steam turbine generator is not an easy task to make with medieval technology
Sure, but someone else was wanting to use the motorcycle engine as a generator. I feel like this is more practical since you don’t need to figure out how to get more fuel. Not that I have any idea what to do with a generator in that time period either way.
You can use a windmill, waterwheel, or animals to turn a generator. The real problem would be getting a magnet and enough purified copper. Most people do not realize how complicated and interdependent our society is. No person is an island and no invention is either.
With a diesel engine you could fuel it with biodiesel made from cooking oil, sodium hydroxide(an impure solution likely sufficient for our purposes could be obtained from wood ash, this was normally used in soap making) and methanol(obtainable by distillation and used as early as ancient egypt)
Also certain non diesel engines can run on ethanol, including some motorcycles made for brasilian market that can run on E100 that is 94.7% ethanol (rest is water) so fuel for that engine could be distilled with medieval technology
Some dude in India made one to spin his shawarma in like 400 ad wtf u talking about
The Uranium and the single hit of LSD. Time for the magic to happen.
Probably the spices and uranium.
Spices have always been valuable, and I’d “curse” the nobility with the yellow cake and anyone else who bothered me.
Maybe they’d execute me horribly for witchcraft, or maybe I could retire and live a more peaceful life than my current one.
The Moog and the LSD. You’re fucked no matter how you look at it but at least you can have a bitchin time until they burn you for being a witch.
That was my choice too. Sounds hella fun, and the locals won’t care that I suck because they don’t understand modern music composition, and I won’t give a fuck either because I’m high off my tits!
The fact that the Moog is inherently able to make sounds without power, but no other electrical ones get that is what really leans me to that. I know a Casio f-91W will last a long time, but the laser pointer and dab pen won’t.
I am personally leaning towards the motorcycle and Moog. The motorcycle could be (poorly) fueled with distilled grain alcohol. Not fit for human consumption, but it could make it work. Eventually something will break on both, and you can’t fix it. But you can be a form of traveling bard.
Plus if you keep the Moog, you can put it into a place that is safe, then have your later kin give it to some scientists in the 1800’s. “Hey Maxwell, here’s a literal magic device. See how it works. Figure out how it does this and what it can and can’t do.”
If the moog has infinite power you could build a really big capacitor and hook it up to it to make enough power to do other interesting things…
It’s not on there. I want a small tablet with a solar recharger. It will be loaded with all of the texts I can find about math and engineering and science.
Personally I’m taking a big fucking hammer and the banner of the fighting man I’M COMING FOR YOU WILLIAM YOU FUCKING BASTARD GET FUCKING READY
Wtf whatever I did I’m sorry
Legend has it that when Tolkien referred to ‘the war’ he meant the battle of Hastings in 1066.
Almost all of these will get you drowned for witchcraft
Nah. Medieval folks understood the idea of mechanical engineering and complex music instruments, take the spices and the keyboard and instead some dude will just stab you for them.
I’ll take the DeLorean and the castle
dab pen all i need baby
Can I take a dab pen with 10 carts?
