How about reply with a link here? I’m just curious now

quams69, (edited ) in Be honest: if you had the power to stop time, your morals would go out the window.

If I had the power to stop time I’d stop it, travel all around the world putting live grenades in the pockets of every type of evil greedy cunt I could find, then start it again and wait for the fireworks to ensue. Every time someone starts making psychopath money again? Suddenly a grenade appears in their pocket. Funding wars, poison and incarceration? Every person with a finger in haliburton or monsanto, turned into red mist at a board meeting. Shareholders, exploding in hot tubs, saudi princes splattered in their shitty lambos. Every jordan belfort wannabe fuckstick exquisitely morphed into charcuterie.

Grenade morality.

that would be extremely time consuming, imagine traveling around the world with every major transport frozen

and imagine the time It would take to actually find everyone who needs a pocket granade

A_Random_Idiot,

I think one of the necessary secondary support powers would be for time to flow normally for anything you touch.

Otherwise air would be frozen and you’d suffocate.

the_stat_man,

Also if air were frozen, it wouldn’t flow to move out of your way so you’d be locked in place.

I feel like after a while, and maybe with a few notes left behind, it would begin to have a chilling effect.

Tangent5280,

Would it really be time consuming? Depends on the ruleset of thw world I suppose. Do you age in this time frozen state?

PsychedSy,

I think you’d have to.

Tangent5280,

I think it can’t work without the “things Im touching are exempt” rule.

Cosmicomical,

If you can breathe and are not locked into your own clothes, you can surely use motor vehicles as well

Rooskie91,

How can you consume time if it is stopped?

PsychedSy,

Time is change. If you’re not aging then you’re not moving. Imagine destroying the universe by just stopping it.

bingbong,

Grenade morality.

Big grenade diplomacy

whats_all_this_then,

I’d vote for ya

archonet,

you paint a vivid mental image

I like that

Smoogs, (edited )

You’d need both the ability to stop time, create a time pocket for yourself and the ability to fly on your own

balderdash9,

The “Death Note” style of super powers lol

Lemvi, in What system or method do you use for your monthly budget or personal finance?

There are apps that can automatically track in- and outgoing payments for your account, as well as classify them to give you an overview. I use Finanzguru, though I suspect that’s only available in Germany.

If you’re struggling with money, here’s my approach: If it isn’t absolutely necessary to have, sleep on it at least once before buying it, no matter how cheap it is. Works quite well, its weird how much your perspective can often change within a day.

kn33, in Donald Trump May 'Turn Off the Internet'. How even? A thought experiment.

Probably fucking with BGP somehow but I don’t really know beyond that

silverdraco, in Out of all the cars you've owned, which one holds a special place in your heart as the absolute favourite.

07 Toyota Tacoma. Sold it with 190k miles on it. It was an amazing truck, but we needed something bigger.

bobo, in Out of all the cars you've owned, which one holds a special place in your heart as the absolute favourite.

I’ve had my 2004 Honda Element for 20 years now. Favorite car ever! I’ll drive it until it disintegrates.

CaptDust, in What do ridiculously rich people (like Bill Gates etc.) ask for/get for Christmas/birthdays/etc.?

No insights, but all the money and resources in the world couldn’t replicate a homemade customized gift of some kind. Probably end up with a lot of knitted scarves and hats lol.

balderdash9,

This. He probably keeps all the cards his kids made him

RampantParanoia2365, in Lesbians of lemmy, how do you introduce your SO to other people without getting them confused for just a friend?

I’m not a lesbian, but I’d probably just say girlfriend and expect people to be able to understand context.

weew,

I don’t know if it’s just a local slang, but most straight girls I know will refer to their close female friends as girlfriends.

Witchfire,
@Witchfire@lemmy.world avatar

That’s almost strictly a straight girl thing. When all your friends are queer or queer-adjacent, it’s usually understood what you mean.

RampantParanoia2365,

Yes. Hence context.

phoenixz, in Out of all the cars you've owned, which one holds a special place in your heart as the absolute favourite.

Nissan NX 2000, those were the days. I loved (and still love) the headlights

shinigamiookamiryuu, in What are some good places to advertise your personal blog?

This Discord server if you don’t mind doing it on Discord.

It has a section for promotions where everyone will see the advertisement you wish to put there.

Rhynoplaz, in What are some good places to advertise your personal blog?

Since it’s a personal blog, I would stick with personal social media. Facebook, Snapchat, X, places where people are following YOU, and would be more interested in hearing more about you.

If it’s going to have a consistent theme, you could post something in related communities if they allow it.

ParsnipWitch, in What is your unpopular flim opinion

Horror movies are unfairly judged because most people who do not like horror movies watch them for the wrong reasons.

Num10ck, in What do you follow to keep track of new media releases?

metacritic

MagneticFusion, in I want to study psychology but won't AI make it redundant in a couple of years?

A computer will never have emotions the same way a human has emotions. It is not a living creature. True and genuine human connection is something that will only become more invaluable with the rise of AI

dog,

Eh, I give it 5 years.

Never say never, because everything is possible given enough time. The only question being how much time.

MagneticFusion,

you are being wildly optimistic. AI confidently lies to you about purely objective things such as asking it to write a program and it confidently writes it wrong and tells you that it is correct over and over. Something like psychology and mental health is far from objective and is constantly evolving, and also differs from person to person based on a gazillion different variables, the most important of them being emotion, something a robot will most likely never have. Even some living animals do not have a wide range of emotions such as snakes that only feel fear and anger, they don’t feel sadness or happiness or anything. What would make you think that artificially created robots would have enough emotional intelligence to replace human psychologists within 5 years?

CaptObvious, in What companies have made your blacklist?

Chick-fil-A. Hobby Lobby. DeviantArt/Wix (any Israeli company, in fact, until Palestine is free).

20hzservers,

Wait Chick-fil-A is Israeli? /S

CaptObvious,

Chick-fil-A is owned and operated by homophobic douchebags.

Aremel,

What’s up with DeviantArt?

CaptObvious,

DeviantArt is wholly owned by Wix. It ceased being a US company in 2017.
