The best thing Hitler ever did

was blow his fucking brains out in a bunker after it was plainly clear he had lost and his dictatorial strongman fantasy was over. Most of his fawning generals soon did the same. If only everyone who emulates and esteems that genocidal piece of shit would follow his example when they lose their quixotic fascist quests...

The same mindset that orange, criminal convict thug trump has.

Hope he knows when it's time for a change...of diapers.

They gave him 2 devices, 2 detonator.
As he only had time to set one detonator, he kept the other device.
In the close proximity of a briefcase, he didn't need 2 detonator.
The first detonator would have, with 95% certainty, triggered both devices. The blast of the first device would have brought the probability of both device detonating up to 100%.
Given the room volume was the same, twice the high explosives doubles the blast pressure.
At twice the blast pressure, nobody in that room survives, heavy table leg or not.
If only Klaus (or the people who gave him the instructions) understood more about explosives, the war could have ended a year sooner.

Troops and equipment.
Ike thought so also and we have our freeway system.
No props for the Dick. Someone else likely thought of it and he took the credit.

Vienna, 1907: after numerous attempts, have infiltrated the Academy of Fine Arts and facilitated Adolf Hitler’s admission to that institution. Goodbye, Hitler the dictator; hello, Hitler the modestly successful landscape artist! Brought back a few of his paintings as well, any buyers?

All right; that’s it. Having just returned from 1907 Vienna where I secured the expulsion of Hitler from the Academy by means of an elaborate prank involving the Prefect, a goat, and a substantial quantity of olive oil, I now turn my attention to our newer brethren, who, despite rules to the contrary, seem to have no intention of reading Bulletin 1147 (nor its Addendum, Alternate Means of Subverting the Hitlerian Destiny, and here I’m looking at you, SneakyPete). Permit me to sum it up and save you the trouble: no Hitler means no Third Reich, no World War II, no rocketry programs, no electronics, no computers, no time travel. Get the picture?

At 02:29:49, SilverFox316 wrote:
PS to SneakyPete: your Hitler paintings aren’t worth anything, schmuck, since you probably brought them directly here from 1907, which means the paint’s still fresh. Freaking n00b.

Amen, SilverFox316. Although, point of order, issues relating to early 1900s Vienna should really go in that forum, not here. This has been a recurring problem on this forum.

SilverFox316, you seem to know a lot about the rules; what are your thoughts on traveling to, say, Braunau, Austria, in 1875 and killing Alois Hitler before he has a chance to father Adolf? Mind you, I’m asking out of curiosity alone, since I already went and did it.

At 18:42:55, SilverFox316 wrote:
Jason440953, see Bylaw 7, which states that all IATT rulings regarding historical persons apply to ancestors as well. I post this for the benefit of others, as I already made this clear to young Jason in person as I was dragging him back from 1875 by his hair. Got that? No ancestors. (Though if anyone were to go back to, say, Moline, Illinois, in, say, 2080 or so, and intercede to prevent Jason440953’s conception, I could be persuaded to look the other way.)

What gives is everyone’s repeated insistence on a course of action which, even if successful, would only save a few million Europeans. It would be no more trouble to travel to Fuyuanshui, China, in 1814 and kill Hong Xiuquan, thus preventing the Taiping Rebellion of the mid–nineteenth century and saving fifty million lives in the process. But, hey, what are fifty million yellow devils more or less, right, guys? We’ve got Poles and Frenchmen to worry about.

I've always found time travel paradoxes interesting, myself. I thought the story was pretty unique and well done. I should probably get a life too, I suppose.
