7 would be really useful for those games where you have to find the ball under the cup. You can instantly tell if you’re being swindled, and always win.

If there’s no cooldown and no cost on teleport, maximum distance doesn’t really make a difference
huquad@lemmy.ml 8 months ago
My thoughts exactly. Flying unlocked

Even with a cooldown or something like that, a real world ‘blink’ ability, even of just 7 inches, would be utterly devastating in hand to hand combat, as well as potentially in ranged/armed combat as well.
Just imagine scenes from John Wick but also, every 30 minutes, he can just ‘blink’ up to 7 inches to dodge or connect a punch, kick, grab, close range shot, move just a bit further into cover, etc.
Granted, you would also have to be very careful to not uh, Philadelphia Experiment / phase shift into a fucking wall or some other person or something.

Forget combat, how many times have you nearly missed slipping and falling while climbing stairs because of imperfect foot placement?
Well, for when you actually and up being in a bad enough position to slip, you get to save yourself, positioned perfectly for the next stride.

What if you can only teleport with a pill? What happens when you ingest a whole handful? Are you teleposing in different directions simultaneously?
Patches@ttrpg.network 8 months ago
Yes but they all cancel each other out leaving you unmoving.
Lemmyoutofhere@lemmy.ca 8 months ago
It does if trying to go through an 8” thick wall.
tatterdemalion@programming.dev 8 months ago
No you just immerse in the wall for a femtosecond.

If abusable the look 10 hours younger one could be sick to go along with this.

Seeing inside empty containers is way more useful than it seems.
8000gnat@reddthat.com 8 months ago
are clothes considered containers? asking for a friend
Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 8 months ago
Yes. Any empty clothes are yours to see inside.
lugal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 months ago
My thought exactly. You know immediately if it’s empty
SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 8 months ago
That whole Geraldo safe thing could have been avoided

#7 Can instantly see inside any empty container

Running as fast as Albert Einstein would be a considerable improvement.
Typhoon@lemmy.ca 8 months ago
Einstein can’t run at all. He died years ago.

Hey, it’s all relative.

Depending on if 3 has a cool down or energy cost, that’s probably the one.
Also they missed: 10. Milk
MotoAsh@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Is the 7 inches absolute, or distance apart? As in, could I teleport past a 7 inch thick wall, or just 7 inches from my current position? If I could get through the wall, that miiight be more abusable. Otherwise totally the gravel. Even if it doesn’t magically appear, gravel is useful for all sorts of stuff. Especially if you get to pick what type/grading/etc each load is like with purchased gravel. That’d be really useful.
Etterra@discuss.online 8 months ago
I’ll take 7 for sure. 2 or 3 depending on how the gravel is delivered and/or if I can chain teleport.

The empty part is probably more necessary to define.
You may only be able to see inside empty containers in a vacuum
rockerface@lemmy.cafe 8 months ago
Or being able to see everything because matter is mostly made of empty space

Teleport how often?
brap@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Easy, free gravel. Become a gravel salesman.
Would be interesting to see how it appears though. Can I get to just point to a spot and suddenly gravel? If so, charge people for the show too. Just rock up to their house, point at the driveway and boom, gravel. Easy money.
Added bonus: don’t like someone? Boom, house literally full of gravel.
Gravel.

The bonus is just how I kill people in minecraft.

You will have free grave in north Korea

I don’t want to deal with people tho
Stamets@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Just says that the gravel is free, not that you can generate it or make it appear
TheseusNow@lemmy.zip 8 months ago
What if it can’t change to paid gravel? Like you try to sell it and people are like if it was free I’d take it, but I won’t pay for that.
frezik@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 months ago
Built a greenhouse with a gravel foundation this summer. Doesn’t matter if I have to move it. Free gravel is useful.
TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 months ago
Still a free product. Normally gravel traders have to purchase the gravel, move it and sell it. Now you just have to move and sell it. Massive profits. Transport fees are for the customer too, so basically free as well.
Grostleton@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 months ago
Toss up between 3 and 7 for me, though the gravel one could have some niche uses.
TP can be abused pretty easy if there’s no physical impact on my body for doing it repeatedly.
sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 8 months ago
Teleport 7 inches only because doing so in quick succession could look really funny
Valmond@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Go slim under 7 inches and teleport through very thin walls.
Psionicsickness@reddthat.com 8 months ago
That’s not very thin walls though. Average walls are 4.5”. Walls with things like plumbing are usually only 6.5”. Teleporting 7 inches would be hella useful.
