Ask Lemmy

To be able to create any art I have in my imagination in seconds exactly how I imagine. Videos, photos, sculptures, etc.

The correct answer is omnipotence

Shapeshifting has always sounded like it would be a trip. Teleportation or similar also sounds super fun, and could have actual practical applications.

I guess you didn't set a limit on how OP it could be, so I could just go for genie wish granting. Although, I can only imagine how zero challenge on literally any activity would fuck with my mental wellbeing.

Not flying, super strength or laser vision. Too much like tools we already have.

I don't think I can ask for immortality or close to it since I already had kids, so I would like a magic purse - the ability to pull whatever I need out of a pocket universe and store whatever I need there. Or if I can't have the stuff, then to be able to create space where it doesn't exist at least, to store things in and pull them out. I would probably use it for crime, yes. But also just so much easier if I can always only get what I am reaching for, but don't have to organize or store it IRL. Like having stuff without having stuff.

I'll take time control. Stop time or slow it so much it might as well be stopped.

You might want to clarify that invisibility power. If you're only invisible to visible light, you'll be kind of annoyed later when you're setting off IR motion detectors and showing up on IR cameras. Also, if you're invisible to the whole EM spectrum you'll be immune to dangerous radiation.

Time manipulation, easy! I have so many projects and my work schedule is all over the place.

The ability to create black holes. Just wanna fuck around and find out.

Immunity to procrastination

Flying

Sorry to take this to a dark place, but I'd have to say the ability to cause people to die in a way of my choosing, just by thinking it.

The ability to convince people even the hardliners.

Flight. I wanna fly, but I guess you’d also need invulnerability since you would crash a lot

Timelord

The ability to memorize and recreate any object at will, including people. I won't have to worry about wealth, and can offer my services for all sorts of purposes. Mamdani wants to simultaneously be mayor AND run for president? Eh presto, two Mamdanis!

invulnerable. If you can't hurt me you can't stop me from making a point and swaying opinions.

Depends on what's available. Regeneration would probably be it. Wouldn't say no to something stronger though.

...why do you want to be invisible? Most of the time, you can put on business casual, smile and wave and you will vanish in plain sight. Or a construction helmet and reflective vest and a clipboard.

I would like to know which scratch off lottery tickets are winners and for how much. If I had that power I could either go buy a couple of multi-million dollar winners and live a life of leisure or I could just perpetually pick up hundred dollar winners that are cashed out in the store and essentially go off the grid.

To fly, be a speedster or teleport would be cool, you know to spend the weekend somewhere else and enjoy life a little more without spending lots in travelling.

Why would you want to be invisible? Is there any non-creepy use case?
