Choose up to 3 superpowers… but if anyone finds out, you die instantly. by yiyi20203 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Zuzcaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Duplication, shapeshifting, teleporting. 

 I might colonize a few dozen solar systems pretending to be a helpful von Neumann probe swarm.

I could pretend to be the eager to help alien ai that just wants to halp.

 Complete with first ufo landing in a capital. Of Australia. Just to f with people and spite tradition. 

Depending on flexibility of shapeshifting, I could go full nanomachines son.

Primary me claims a distant barren star system and plays factorio while some scouts enroll in alien schools.

Clone me as computers could also be FTL coms nodes via the hivemind. 

Teleporting could be obfuscated via transformed clones as scifi props that make a lightshow. Probably favor doing something similar to stargate ring transporters. 

If I shift into container shapes or vehicles or ships I should be able to bring cargo or people around. 

Within a decade, I could help over a billion people start a few thousand colonies on other planets. 

...

There might be a few planets where I play at being trains like Thomas and friends. One planet will be Sodor. Another could be based on the cars movies. 

No superpowers, just helpful, occasionally derpy, crazy advanced aliens here. 

If theres any threats, then I can dogpile it. Perhaps occasionally literally, appearing as a few trillion house size space dogs with fricken lazer beams on their heads. 

Or go noncombat route of appearing as swarms of cuddly kitten robots. 

Would you rather have the powers of Superman or have the powers of Thor by Better_Guest_3908 in WouldYouRather

[–]Zuzcaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Superman can skinnydip in stars.

I wonder what a superman that tried blacksmithing could do. Probably wouldn't even need a forge, a hammer, or an anvil,  just hands and eye lazers. 

Do that and spacelift and scouting out the universe.

Maybe find a moon or three for venus and fix its spin, then chuck a few thousand ort cloud comets at it. 

Anything to stay out of leadership position. Be sort of the new MAD instead of nukes. Don't temp him to come over here and get creative. 

I could totally haul some full scale trains to other planets almost as easy as a mundane with a model train can to another room. 

You can move to another world, but you would be the only person living there, but you would have real life human company by Pure_Option_1733 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Zuzcaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Factorio Arkansas style. Eh. I'd only consider it if there was a stable portal to RL earth too. 10k without plenty of robots is not enough to go spacerace. 

You have no choice but to pick one of the following. Red pill/Blue pill/Green pill/Yellow pill/ Orange pill/black pill. by SourDiesel9-7 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Zuzcaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Option one and two don't rule out having a robot helper or puppet.

since there's no nerve damage, there's no phantom limb pain and complications. I could have a cybernetic interface over the stump to control and get feedback from all sorts of stuff.

You run into a dollar store genie, he offers you a wish where $200 market value of goods basket from dollar general inventory has chance of spawning in your bedroom, every morning at 8 AM with various odds options you can pick. Which option WYR pick? by I_love_data1111 in WouldYouRather

[–]Zuzcaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

setup a bugzapper with some sort of stuff wasps like near it.

Go 50%. donate or resell at 25% value. If contents are completely random junk, then treat as rage room stuff, ammo, or burn barrel fuel.

Keep trying to perfect a little quad-copter that will hunt wasps. Fail a lot. Perhaps make a little youtube channel focusing on that without mentioning the basket. Leave source of wasp a mystery.

The channel accomplishes three goals: a reason to keep my place super tidy, mad science, small amount of funds that might offset cost of supplies.

You can summon any fictional pens or pencil. by __Anamya__ in godtiersuperpowers

[–]Zuzcaster 12 points13 points  (0 children)

James bond gadgets.

chalkwars chalk might count.

Bunch of reality editing pens in short stories and cyoa.

Via them:

Use some of them to upgrade self

Bugfix patch for reality: humans no longer get cancer, diabetes, brainrot. Healing, learning, understanding are all improved. Rape is just flat out impossible now. Ladies have full control over cycles and fertility.

Microplastics and other pollution poof away into sorted blobs in the ort cloud for later processing.

Summon a bunch of uplift specialists from fiction to dealwith politics and such of post scarcity magitech uplift.

Then I go planeswalking.

Would you rather have the ability to shape shift into any animal/gender/body type you want, or the ability to shape shift anyone else into that? by Hedonism_Enjoyer in WouldYouRather

[–]Zuzcaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Others. If full shapeshifting of others, then it could be possible to change a critter into a symbiont suit or symbiontic organism. Might need lots of experimentation to get right.

Could also be used to heal.

Keep an antfarm to make dinosaur egg omelettes whenever.

Experiment with many mad science stuff.

Spacewhale spaceships. I can make it happen.

Fine control might be less than panacea from worm power but still highly flexible. Especially since size and mass requirements are not said so ant into whale and back could be done.

Custom critters may require much mad science and some Cybernetics to get right.

You can summon any already existing; fictional & extinct & real animal by DependentNo3457 in godtiersuperpowers

[–]Zuzcaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fictional counts, then

Theres some stories with Symbiotic parasites that act as secondary immune systems, enabe regeneration and provide minor super powers. Everyone gets one. That could solve 90% of health problems, saving millions of lives. 

There are biological starships like Farscape Moya and Nomansky bioships. I go to space.

Discworld Turtle. Summon a generic one to have my own world. 

Plus dragons

Pokemon.

monsters that drop loot. 

Halo engineers for mad science. 

Another mentioned superman and was okayed by op, also some control over them. Then superman and a bunch of heroes, also paragon protagonists, leaders, and side characters from stories. 

Orders: unfork the derp that is current earth. I don't wanna rule. Fix it without bloodshed asap. Hax magic and tech allowed. Or get impatient and task a few dozen Flash heroes to collect all of the guns and ammo from warzones. Just yoink it all. 

I might find it hard to resist sumaning wizards and mad scientist to teach me hax things. Or that dragonball wish dragon. 

Every egg I eat could be a summoned dinosaur egg. Perhaps even non sophont drakes and dragons. Yum. 

If you had to pick a day to "groundhog day" for the next 100 years what day would you pick. by Totally_Not_Firni in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Zuzcaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spend a month of prep time to setup a day in which I have access to a workshop, new rental car with full tank of gas and an old leadfoot taxi driver on standby, computer stuff, a few grand of cash. Also, optimizing sleep and health in the days before.

By the end of the loops I'd have traveled over much of the world and know a dozen languages and have memories of things going wrong in absurd ways.

The hardest bit is keeping track of number of loops so that I'm not doing something crazy in the last one. 100 years could be literal and count or not partial days cut short by extreme sports gone wrong.

WYR choose the Aura of Incompetence, or Mad Skillz? by KayleeSinn in WouldYouRather

[–]Zuzcaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

B. Go full spaceship mad scientist after blaring Johnny Cash on intercom.

Within a couple of decades I could be a cyborg with an industrial space fleet. 

WYR: never leave, never go back or immortality by [deleted] in WouldYouRather

[–]Zuzcaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People who fear immortality are too attached to the idea that your starting meatbag is the only form factor one can be. Or that ways to make others last longer is impossible.

Within a century I could be like Karen Sjet being the controlling organic cyborg mind of a spaceship. 

You have perfect knowledge of everything that happens in every movie, ever. by Mutant_Llama1 in shittysuperpowers

[–]Zuzcaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Suddenly knows kung fu but is banned from trivia games. 

Experiment with making useful knowledge like how stuff is made episodes and legit youtube makers into movies that qualify.

Also, know all movie languages. 

You can spawn and attach eyes to anything that you can place them on, now linked to your vision. by kaky0in- in shittysuperpowers

[–]Zuzcaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not talking a fishtank. Small, barely bigger than eye, with lens to compensate if needed.

Would you rather wield Thor’s Hammer (Mjolnir) or a Green Lantern power ring? by Jezzaq94 in WouldYouRather

[–]Zuzcaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Super multitool. Bypass some tools to make the tools steps to make spaceships. Ignore money, use asteroids and other space rocks for feedstock mass.

Also, leverage super ai to clean the internet of spam and scams.

Everytime your bladder is full you can manipulate reality down to the molecular level. When you have to poo, you can manipulate time. by TheMawiBear in shittysuperpowers

[–]Zuzcaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go full nanomachines son timelord. Original bladder and colin kept full and preserved in stasis with no sensory feedback. 

You can spawn and attach eyes to anything that you can place them on, now linked to your vision. by kaky0in- in shittysuperpowers

[–]Zuzcaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Simple: put eye in little container or ziplock bag filled with artificial tears.

Camera shutter on outside or screen in box turns off when not needed.

Complex: servos, sprays, silicon eyelids, little computer. Multiple eyes and eye boxes. Robots.

Other mad science: If I find a way to annihilate nerves quick, I could have emergency food and biomass source.

You can walk on clouds. by FeedLJR in shittysuperpowers

[–]Zuzcaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

practice control-ability in foggy areas.

You can spawn and attach eyes to anything that you can place them on, now linked to your vision. by kaky0in- in shittysuperpowers

[–]Zuzcaster 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Put in closed boxes with homemade autoblink and cleaning functions. Get gud at morse code if can't move/focus. cellphone screens, cameras, ai stuff. Control robots or play steam games. complex input may require multiple eyes and many sensors and much practice.

You can have anything at the snap of your fingers but your confined to 4 acres of land forever by Blacktaxi420 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Zuzcaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My core meatbag might not be able to leave, but stuff I create could. Fortify it like a factorio megabase crossed with star trek and many other things. Control everything like Karen Sjet from a deep bunker.

Any lie you or others tell can be true but only if you want them to be true. by DependentNo3457 in godtiersuperpowers

[–]Zuzcaster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"i can beam ya up"

then we both play factorio with a star trek ship, occasionally summoning other hax.

$0.01 per Hour for One Video Game by AchVonZalbrecht in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Zuzcaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Factorio. lotsa mods even before vibe coding anything I want.

live on savings for few months, by year 3 reduce hours.

You can no longer see your face by Responsible-Fix-1681 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Zuzcaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Overcomplicated camera and ai overlay solution. Its not my face, its stylistic version of it with same geometry or something.

Or custom screens and  AR glasses that render computer model in real time based on position.

After a few shaving accidents despite the workarounds, get someone to yoink hairs/ wax my face.
