Say that you suddenly wake up in the year 1875. You end up talking to someone and you want to convince them that you’re from the future. How do you do that?

    IMO, scientific knowledge isn’t that useful if you only have a surface-level understanding of how things work. Either way, let’s say you know enough to get a reputation as a genius inventor or something like that, maybe some people would actually believe if you claim that you’re from the future then, but I think there would be more people who just think you’re crazy (or “eccentric” if you’re lucky).
