If anyone needs a transcript I’ll write it.

Number three will get you through most all fences, walls, and locked doors. Become ungovernable.
Hopefully it’s a7 inch gap, if it’s 7 inches from center mass you’re not really fully shifting position.
And the minute you do it wrong you’ve fused with a fence or a steel door or something and are probably dead so it would require a ton of practice to know your limits
What you gotta do is carry a small object and hold it in front of you, and then teleport forward and back so that the object goes into and out of the lock, breaking it.
Being able to teleport into a region already containing air without creating a nuclear blast requires that you can already either instantly displace the air in the target region (which would make a Very Loud Noise) or switch places with it, so there are possible interpretations of the power where teleporting into a fence would leave behind a detached section of fence or bend it out of your way
True, so I guess in this case the possibility would be that you could get stuck in an object by displacing it, but by continuously displacing, theoretically you could get unstuck
You could pass through anything as long as you’re willing to destroy it in the process
If you work in demolition you could take out a wall by continuously teleporting through it, if you wanted to do typical superhero stuff it would be good in a fight but nonlethal attacks aren’t really an option
True, though this doesn’t cover whether you’d feel the effects of the teleportation, or I guess also how fast you could teleport. Teleporting through air is probably not crazy, but if only every atom of you teleports into solid steel or rock, you’ll basically be stuck for as long as your brain takes to process the next teleportation. If you don’t do it with a full breath you can’t breath in, your hairs might get stuck from tiny muscle movements, if your eyes are open, they are now just touching rock or steel, I think it would require some practice to know the right like “body preparation” to do without harming yourself.
I think I’m normal teleporting scenarios it doesn’t allow you to teleport into ‘objects’, though obviously there has to be some exception for air or it’s basically worthless. I don’t think I’ve ever seen any scenario where you displace anything other than gas?
You would still need to be able to displace suspended particles, bacteria, and small insects, otherwise you wouldn’t be able to teleport outside of a clean room
True, but have you ever seen it depicted where someone transported into a solid object wasnt basically killed? Outside of whatever mechanism somehow explains the background air/insects/etc?
My guess is that easily movable things are explained by some vague bubble or displacement mechanism where the transported person/object starts as a point and as long as the medium is compressible or movable, things just shift out of the way to make room. As long as it’s not instantaneous, and the object isn’t gigantic, there’s no risk of moving into to area to fast and at most there is some air movement associated with the shift.
The alternative is that the displaced environment trades places with the transported object, so the air/bugs/parts of the wall show up where the person/object transported from. Guessing this mechanism isn’t since it opens up a lot of options like using it for mining or kidnapping/theft/etc.
I too assume it’s 7" from center of mass. So not even beyond the boundary of my body.
True true
Can run as fast as Albert Einstein
Now, or when he was alive?
yes.
Can I use .3 as some sort of short-range contiguous Alcubierre drive, by using it repeatedly very fast?
Being able to see inside empty containers has its uses because you can always check if you can see into it and know something’s in it. Knowing IF something has contents can be plenty useful.
I’m torn. Kinda curious about what oysters are thinking, but pretty sure Einstein could run faster than me.
I don’t think he can run very fast now though 🤔
It doesn’t specify Einstein’s age. Plus this ability would be priceless for people in wheelchairs.
Didn’t think about the wheelchair thing, good point. Anyway, I got a shitty cardio, during most of his time on earth, old Albert who have beaten me in a 100m sprint.
Free gravel. That’s building material. You can always sell building material.
I cannot tell you how many ways free gravel for life would help me, but it’s definitely a lot
Pun not intended
But then you would never learn the secrets of the oysters.
Pretty sure the only thing oysters will say to you is “fuck off”.
I could make them talk.
secrets of the oysters.
Yo, this dirty ocean water be bussin’
But if it’s free, you can’t sell it. Otherwise it would no longer be free.
EDITH: I’m surprised how many downvotes your getting for posting a shit post in a shitposting community :-D
Free for me, not for thee.
In a world where some people can control toasters with their mind, free gravel disappears as soon as you put a price tag on it. I’m sorry if you don’t like that, but I don’t make the rules.
I don’t make the rules.
Really? Because that rule wasn’t in the original question and you just made it up.
The original question also doesn’t state that gravity attracts everything but oysters or that Albert Einstein has two runny noses. But that’s how it is. These are just the basic rules of the fantasy pill world. Everybody knows that (at least I thought so).
With comprehension like that You could be a financial advisor for the US government.
In order to do that I’d have to take 💊 № 1 though, so I’d be able to communicate with people who are sℏellfish.
Would need the details on some of these.
- The empty container depends on the definition of “container” and “empty”. If a house is a container for people it’s easy to rob when empty. If you have to be looking at an airless vacuum it’s dogshit. Otherwise I’m sure you could make money with a creative gambling scheme.
- Gravel for life, like an infinite bucket full? Or the typical “for life” shit where you just get one trailer full dumped in your driveway every year for 60 years. Probably an overrated pick.
- Teleporting is almost certainly the best pick. Is there a cool down? Do you keep momentum? Can it be in any direction? Does it take the same effort as walking? If you can spam it at the speed thought, you’re now flying. Even with a CD you could be a world class athlete in a lot of sports. Or just do simple stuff like reach a high shelf or teleport out of handcuffs.
Or just do simple stuff like reach a high shelf or teleport out of handcuffs.
Teleporting out of you handcuffs also implies you’d lose your clothes every time you teleport.
I don’t see the issue?
Usually bodies are more than 7 inches wide, so you wouldn’t end up naked, but with a t-shirt somewhere inside your body. So if it works like that, I’d advise you not to choose that pill. That is, unless you’re an oyster.
If I grow a second nose, will it also be stuffed up? If so, I choose teleportation. I know it’s only 7 inches but that’s enough to get around most doors so it’s still useful.
That depends on how thick both you and the door are. Still, its probably the best one there.
Both noses will be running all the time, but just as fast as the noses of Albert Einstein.
I shall abuse these toaster powers thoroughly and for my own amusement. Every toaster on the planet will go off at the same time!
I COULD DO SO MUCH MORE COCAINE WITH ANOTHER NOSE
How does the free gravel thing work? Can I just summon it in a location of my choice? Or is there a guy who delivers it to me?
It spawns in your gizzard
Speaking a dead language would be cool. Maybe teach it to others and read into the history, etymology and people of it. Talk to historians and what not.
3 will get you past most any locked door or fence.
Only if you are thinner than 7" minus the thickness of the door. Otherwise, you would teleport right into the door, which (I assume) might be quite painful.
Good point… It’s not as far as I thought
EAsy way to lose weight though. Who needs weak flesh amiright
You can just teleport 7 inches backwards after lunch. As the contents of your stomach isn’t you, it will stay inert and fall to the floor. You can eat all you want if you don’t have to digest it.
Just remember to stand up beforehand or you’ll end up intermingled with your chair having chewed up cheeseburger all over your lap.
Gravel ofc. Just imagine being able to provide every construction site on earth with cheap gravel with no cost at all. I’d be the first billionaire on earth who didn’t fuck other people over to be absurdly rich.
Thought the same thing but it doesn’t say how the gravel is obtained. I assume there’s still going to be transportation costs and “life” could be as short as how long it takes to be smothered by a heap of free gravel. I am suspicious.
cureently doing a massive landscape job, then moving to a friend’s place for same and putting in a bunch of paving. free gravel pls
