I can slap people over TCP/IP

[–] nettika@lemmy.blahaj.zone 29 points 1 year ago (6 children)

Doing so causes your internet service to cut out for several hours.

I’d still use it occasionally.

[–] SuddenDownpour@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

I'd still use it all the time. Losing internet for a while sucks, but letting someone you'll never meet express their wrong opinions to equally unimportant strangers on a fake place for fake internet points without consequences??????????

[–] Roundcat@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago

Slap people wirelessly, and get a break from the internet to cool off? sign me up.

[–] Majima@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Still worth it

Being the first known human to fully interface with a machine also leads to the discovery of cross-platform illnesses.

You are the first human to experience the effects of a backdoor trojan firsthand.

I can feel the same emotions as others and am able to communicate without any misunderstandings.

[–] aftersomerain@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It only works on depressed people.

[–] Psionicsickness@reddthat.com 10 points 1 year ago

I'm sooooo ok with this. Being able to understand where their depression was and able to communicate perfectly how to shift their perspective would give me a purpose that would kill my depression and realign my perspective.

[–] Amir@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 year ago

Become the best psychiatrist for depressed people ever

whenever a bird chirps you hear the actual meaning of its song, as if it were shouted at you in your native tongue.

Ads are blocked for me in real life. Billboards, posters, tv-commercials, all gone!

[–] hungryphrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 23 points 1 year ago

You start bumping into invisible billboards all the time.

[–] someacnt@sopuli.xyz 16 points 1 year ago

You realize you are living in North Korea.

[–] muzzle@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

They are blocked by obnoxious flashing and loud beeping noises.

But your keys keep disappearing, even though you know you've put them there.

I can jump 10x my own height and can stick to walls

Walking on the ground is always slippery

All my bodily functions smells nice, sort of perfume-like.

[–] AussieTom@kbin.social 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Your perfume-like scent acts as a pheromone to all insects in your proximity, leading to an endless swarm everywhere you go

I can make my dad come back from getting the milk

[–] riodoro1@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

Now he forgot his cigarettes.

[–] Lux@lemmy.blahaj.zone 15 points 1 year ago

He brings his new family

[–] DarkenLM@kbin.social 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I can materialize any technology I want, whether it is possible or not.

But everytime you do it you get sued for patent infringement

Does obtaining the financial security of the average adult American in the 1980s count as a superpower? Home ownership on near-minimum wage does seem pretty fantastical.

[–] DaaftRaaft@vlemmy.net 24 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But you become extremely jaded and disappointed in anyone younger than yourself, overcome with än irredeemable urge to tell people to pull themselves up by their bootstraps

But you're still affected by gravity so you immediately start freefall into the centre of the earth
