if they already hate you there’s nothing to lose

please explain to me how do you think being stationary in space works?

They could have forgotten about the position setting all together.

You’re assuming that the time machine would just change the time and keep the position but there is no absolute reference frame, so the time machine should use some reference frame in which it keeps the position constant. It would then be common sense to have the time machine keep the position relative to the earth. Anything else would be pretty dumb, unless you want to use your time machine also for space travel to other planets.

why the suns position

That was just an example. It’s either the sun or the center of our galaxy, or some other reference point so if it wasn’t the earth then the sun is the next most logical option.

do they really take calls from random people?

More importantly it’s the electromagnetic force that keeps atoms together. Gravity only keeps planets and stars together and also solar systems and galaxies, but in ordinary objects it’s totally negligible.

Position isn’t absolute so if this happens this means you knowingly made the time machine memorize position relative to e.g… the sun rather than the earth.
