i_shot_the_sherry, in If you could have one small thing as a superpower. What would it be and why?

Being able to choose the best fruits/vegetables when shopping for groceries. No more moldy Avocados.

I know that there are indicators that I can already use to determine this, but I want to be able to just pick the best ones every time on first try without even thinking or touching them all.

Not needing to sleep.

I could save so much time if I could tell how much voltage is in a circuit just by touching it

lazylion_ca,

Oh that’s easy:

A little.

A lot.

TOO MUCH!

Isn’t it unsafe to touch a circuit?

(Or is that the joke?)

It’s adorable that you think OP has ever been touched by a woman that wasn’t his mom.

pinwurm, in Do you have a sibling? What is the relationship like?
@pinwurm@lemmy.world avatar

I have an older brother by 4-5 years.

We didn’t really get along when we were young. Fought over things - games, TV remote, CD player, etc.

But when he left for college, we grew closer. He still lived nearby, and my folks encouraged us hanging out. It was sort of an escape. Home life wasn’t great, and he and his friends were fun. He was around for a lot of my pivotal life moments. When I finally got to college, I moved in with him as roommates. Worked well.

We’re friends, basically. We have very different personalities - but we understand each other very well.

Now we live in different cities, hours apart. He’s married with a kid. I’m married and childfree. We see each other a few times a year. We text and call regularly.

I guess in this sense, I’m quite lucky.

Add +1 to the Credit Score of anyone I positively interact with.

Forestwalking, in If you could have one small thing as a superpower. What would it be and why?

Only needing an hour or two of sleep per night, but getting all the rejuvenating effects of a perfect night’s sleep. I hope I would be productive with that time.

I would ABUSE this power

VelvetStorm,

Why not just get rid of the need for sleep all together but still have the ability to sleep when you want if you want to?

rclkrtrzckr, in If you could have one small thing as a superpower. What would it be and why?

I’d like to relax people around me, make them happy and communicative. Imagine entering public transport during rush hour, and all of a sudden, everyone around you puts away the phone and people start to talk to eachother, with a smile on their face.

AstroTravellin,

Put some MDMA in a spray bottle.

VelvetStorm,

That’s my nightmare scenario. I just want to get where I’m going with as little interaction as possible 90% of the time.

Crackhappy,
@Crackhappy@lemmy.world avatar

When extrovert and introvert collide.

rclkrtrzckr,

That’s the whole point of this superpower. No nightmares.

Sabre363,

But some of us get stressed out when people try to talk to us.

rclkrtrzckr,

If you’re there, you’ll enjoy the conversation :) Superpower, remember?

JoeClu, in How do I learn to detect logical fallacies in a conversation?
@JoeClu@lemmy.world avatar

We learned to recognize a lot of them in college Philosophy 101.

housepanther, in Part time tech work?
@housepanther@lemmy.goblackcat.com avatar

I honestly had my sights set on doing some sales and consulting based on the ERPnext platform, an open source solution that uses Frappe. I am still working out some of the wrinkles but I am wondering there might be a business opportunity because ERPnext looks like it could literally be game-changin.

Num10ck, in If you could have one small thing as a superpower. What would it be and why?

i could see lies

riskable,
@riskable@programming.dev avatar

Even better would be to make people’s lies visible to everyone.

“Something’s going on with this politician! It looks like he’s sweating literal bullshit all over his face! Oh my God the smell! The smell is awful! Oh the humanity!”

ahal, in If you could have one small thing as a superpower. What would it be and why?

To get my kids to fall asleep at their bed time.

mycoxadril,

You’re thinking too small. You’ve got to ask to have your kids do everything you ask them to do.

So you say bedtime, they go to sleep. You say sit still and quiet for this particular moment, they listen. You say look here and smile, bam, instant beautiful family picture.

I’d settle for them listening after the third time I asked them to do something. I’m not greedy.

For the sleep thing, melatonin is magical. 1/4 of a 1mg melatonin chewable is barely anything but it’ll knock them out because they think it’s supposed to. I could switch to gummy bears now and I bet it would still work on them.
