Where does the gravel come from? Am I making the Earth heavier when I use this power?
Gravel ofc. Just imagine being able to provide every construction site on earth with cheap gravel with no cost at all. I’d be the first billionaire on earth who didn’t fuck other people over to be absurdly rich.
Thought the same thing but it doesn’t say how the gravel is obtained. I assume there’s still going to be transportation costs and “life” could be as short as how long it takes to be smothered by a heap of free gravel. I am suspicious.
Teleport 7in away, un governable
Gravel is expensive if you’re doing a lot of landscaping. I’ll supply all of the entrepeneurs in the area and make a fortune.
For real, free gravel for life is the choice. You can start a gravel business and sell that shit. According to Google a 100ft driveway can cost upwards of $3k to gravel.
The real question is, does free gravel mean you can spawn gravel? Or buy it for free? Both require a good amount of logistical planning to take advantage of to build a gravel empire
If you can spawn it, you technically have the solution to entropy, possibly also free energy.
what if you have to pass it piece by piece from your bladder
Let’s hear what the oysters are up to…
The logistics isn’t that much of a problem. Start small and make yourself a name by being trustworthy and way cheaper than the competition. If you succeed at this stage you can hire people and expand in no time.
With a 12ft width, that’s about 15-18” subbase, which is overkill. Wondering if that $3k includes installation.
This.
Free gravel for life is OP! (probly gets nerfed in the next update)
3 for sure. Depending on how teleporting into other objects works, and how fast you can spam it, you could get some serious work done with a power like that.
yeah, #3 is a time machine if you can spam it faster than light can travel 7 inches
When you play Noita you discover that the way to move fast is to teleport shorter distance possible and spam it. It is also better for avoiding obstacles
Number three will get you through most all fences, walls, and locked doors. Become ungovernable.
Hopefully it’s a7 inch gap, if it’s 7 inches from center mass you’re not really fully shifting position.
And the minute you do it wrong you’ve fused with a fence or a steel door or something and are probably dead so it would require a ton of practice to know your limits
Being able to teleport into a region already containing air without creating a nuclear blast requires that you can already either instantly displace the air in the target region (which would make a Very Loud Noise) or switch places with it, so there are possible interpretations of the power where teleporting into a fence would leave behind a detached section of fence or bend it out of your way
I think I’m normal teleporting scenarios it doesn’t allow you to teleport into ‘objects’, though obviously there has to be some exception for air or it’s basically worthless. I don’t think I’ve ever seen any scenario where you displace anything other than gas?
You would still need to be able to displace suspended particles, bacteria, and small insects, otherwise you wouldn’t be able to teleport outside of a clean room
True, but have you ever seen it depicted where someone transported into a solid object wasnt basically killed? Outside of whatever mechanism somehow explains the background air/insects/etc?
My guess is that easily movable things are explained by some vague bubble or displacement mechanism where the transported person/object starts as a point and as long as the medium is compressible or movable, things just shift out of the way to make room. As long as it’s not instantaneous, and the object isn’t gigantic, there’s no risk of moving into to area to fast and at most there is some air movement associated with the shift.
The alternative is that the displaced environment trades places with the transported object, so the air/bugs/parts of the wall show up where the person/object transported from. Guessing this mechanism isn’t since it opens up a lot of options like using it for mining or kidnapping/theft/etc.
True, so I guess in this case the possibility would be that you could get stuck in an object by displacing it, but by continuously displacing, theoretically you could get unstuck
You could pass through anything as long as you’re willing to destroy it in the process
If you work in demolition you could take out a wall by continuously teleporting through it, if you wanted to do typical superhero stuff it would be good in a fight but nonlethal attacks aren’t really an option
True, though this doesn’t cover whether you’d feel the effects of the teleportation, or I guess also how fast you could teleport. Teleporting through air is probably not crazy, but if only every atom of you teleports into solid steel or rock, you’ll basically be stuck for as long as your brain takes to process the next teleportation. If you don’t do it with a full breath you can’t breath in, your hairs might get stuck from tiny muscle movements, if your eyes are open, they are now just touching rock or steel, I think it would require some practice to know the right like “body preparation” to do without harming yourself.
What you gotta do is carry a small object and hold it in front of you, and then teleport forward and back so that the object goes into and out of the lock, breaking it.
True true
I too assume it’s 7" from center of mass. So not even beyond the boundary of my body.
Number seven. And then piss off every “pea under shell” trickster, because you can see which shells are empty.
I’ll give you a hint, they’re all empty.
But aren’t the shells more covers than containers?
Can I use .3 as some sort of short-range contiguous Alcubierre drive, by using it repeatedly very fast?
How does the free gravel thing work? Can I just summon it in a location of my choice? Or is there a guy who delivers it to me?
It spawns in your gizzard
Can run as fast as Albert Einstein
Now, or when he was alive?
yes.
A manga artist would find a way to make one of these the most op power in their entire universe. “I can fill anyones lungs with gravel with just a thought” or " i teleported 5 cms into you and severed a nerve in your spine that paralyzes you for life"
Shhh! Thats Elasta-girl’s big secret!
3 or 7.
Doesn’t mention any cooldown on the teleport so I could probably spam it which would make it useful.
7 sounds stupid but it could be actually useful in some situations.
Most humans can already teleport 7 inches instantly… It’s called walking. The free gravel is where it’s at!
Do you use a different definition of ‘instantly’ or do you have some secret arcane knowledge
I ran the quarter mile in 1 pico-second back in school.
So, both?
Number 7 might let you cheat at some carnival/gambling games. Which of these 1000 boxes has the million dollars in it? The one I can’t see through, of course!
Play carnival game
Guess the box!
Only one box isn’t empty
Open it
Tissue paper
“Better luck next time!”
But… no container is truly empty.
Usually they contain air, but even in space there’d be one or two molecules banging around inside.
You’d never see anything.
Teleporting 7 inches still sounds kinda badass, would be very useful in a fight or you could just stand and repeatedly teleport to recreate that OK GO video.
If I grow a second nose, will it also be stuffed up? If so, I choose teleportation. I know it’s only 7 inches but that’s enough to get around most doors so it’s still useful.
That depends on how thick both you and the door are. Still, its probably the best one there.
Both noses will be running all the time, but just as fast as the noses of Albert Einstein.
