What If You Could Choose Any Superpower?

oooooooo this is hard. List, 1-10 (Any powers that have the same numbers are a tie. I just can't decide between em!)
I'd have to choose:
1. Omnipotence
2. Time control
2. Matter manipulation
3. Omni-intelligence
3. Teleportation
3. Omnipresence
3. Portal creation
4. Control/manipulation over luck
5. Sense manipulation
5. Extreme persuasion
6. Density control
7. Absolute control over electronic devices
7. Gravity control
8. Sound-to-light conversion
9. Radiation manipulation
10. Hard-light creation/manipulation

 

and cause a paradox in the process

 

Teleportation. So I am always able to get to @CuddleDragonHoke :3

 

So you're saying it's weak, but it's not? What?

By time control, I meant total control. As in, stopping/starting, speeding up, slowing down, going back in time, going to the future, etc. etc. while also being able to control who and what it affects

 

Immunity to the banhammer. I'm a simple man, all i want is roof over the head and a computer to shitpost on.

 

if you controled time over the whole world at once it won't do anything.
if it's in a smaller area effects will be kinda visible.
if you mean moving "normaly" while stopping time you'll destroy existence.

 

Small problem with that; tests aren't based on randomness normally. They're based on knowledge, so manipulating the odds won't actually help. As for a superpower, I would like the ability to control the flow of time (slowing it down for other people, being able to reverse it, etc.) because the laws of time means that punching someone while time is slowed makes you hit like a a nuke.

 

That's all highly theoretical, who knows if you'll blow the universe apart.
Honestly, if you were still able to move while stopping time over the entire world, moving through air (assuming universe still intact) would be you most major problem. You'd create massive vacuums and crash billions of molecules into your body meaning INTENSE nuclear fusion energy would be unleashed as soon as time resumed

 

Actually, relativity does sort of allow for the manipulation of spacetime (time dilation), so it IS possible.

 

Eh, if you were moving normally and the entire universe was stopped in time that would mean everything but you was moving at the speed of light (impossible)

________________________________

Being able to control probability would probably be my choice. It is literally the most op thing in existence. With it you could just give yourself any superpower you wanted and make anything you want happen. You'd need extremely fine control over collapsing wave functions for much bigger things though.
I guess it would be being able to control probability effortlessly

 

That's not how nuclear fusion works, you know. Billions of molecules are already crashing into you at any given second. You would need to be hotter than the core of the sun to fuse oxygen, and by then you'd have bigger problems. Like death. And the fact that the universe would never be unfrozen without you.

true, but slowing time is still possible. Slowing it so you might as well have frozen time is also possible, as you will just be moving NEAR light speed.

 

I mean... that depends.
One interesting hypothesis that I saw was: If time machines exist, when you go back/forward in time (say kill grandmother, get knowledge) you are going to an alternate universe where this happened so your original universe is intact and nothing really paradoxifiesesealjdfae;ijdfea;dsfeaw

 

________________________________

 

1. Think about it this way. Assume the time stop isn't total time stop, just INSANE time slowing. Then, it'd be as if I was moving at like .99 c and would mean that any molecules crashing into each other at that speed would DEFINITELY cause nuclear fusion.
an interesting read on that: https://what-if.xkcd.com/1/ (@The One-eyed Guy do you read xkcd what if?)

2. Moving at near light speed slows time for you, not the rest of the universe

 

Again, by then you would have much bigger problems than vacuums. Such as the end of the universe.

 

so pretty much a better explained version of what i said...?

 

Also, why are we debating superpowers in the first place?

________________________________

Yep

 

I'm gonna assume you were talking about my first comment.
Any discussion on time travel and time stopping is highly hypothetical and frankly we have no idea what would happen if we stopped time for everything but one sack of molecules.
Honestly we're just debating our own hypotheses

 

Yep, and that's what scientists do. We are officially physicists! :)

Also, my second superpower would be havingthe ability to create food at will, but it would destroy the world's economy and violate the law of conservation of mass

 

if you stop time and are able to move you literally went zero to a handred nigga real quick.
if you moved one meter while timr stopped you moved one meter in 0 seconds. your velocity is 1/0 (undefined/infinite) you create so much energy that the universe will be destroyed.
