I think you guys are underrating a few of these

  • 8 could be useful if you’re a spy and want to have your own private documents that noone can read
  • 1 you could leave oysters in places suited for eavesdropping, and maybe even coordinate billions of them to tackle down ships etc (?)
  • 5 It would be possible to all of the sudden communicate with all humanity in morse code by turning them on and off, you would hit headlines and maybe demand a crazy amount of money in cardano/bitcoin or else you’ll just blow up the toast industry. Plus, this morse code thing could lead to a cult where you might have fanatics at your advantage

3 and 7, teleporting a short distance like that can be extremely useful to get past roors and fences. Identifying whether a container was empty or not reliably is good enough proof to clean out this listwithout being powerful enough that the majority of people would actually believe I have magic, plus I don’t have to reveal my teleporting ability.

5 and 8. Imagine being able to spook people out all around the world by making their toaster go off in the middle of the night. Also, speaking in dead languages will make me very interesting at parties.

2 and 5

2 because gravel can be sold

5 because imagine you’re in a hotel and just mess with people

    No, the container has to be empty for you to see through it.

    As someone with a gravel driveway, I will take free gravel for life. Lump sum is okay but installments are prefured.

    1 and 7. Knowing if things are empty might be marginally useful. Communicating with oysters seems fascinating. Oysters are similar to coral in that they are an important part of forming habits for fish. Being able to ask them what’s troubling them could be useful for conservation efforts.

    3 and 5.

    5 because it would even work on toasters that can do more than just toast, i.e. a toaster plus computer.

    3 because the other pills don’t sound useful. And it doesn’t say how often I can use this teleportation. So I assume through repeated teleportation I’d be super fast. If it doesn’t also teleport my cloths, I’d probably not use it too often though, apart from changing cloths (the 17.78 cm should be barely enough). It would also be interesting to fly using repeated teleportation. Though if my speed is not also reset through teleportation, I’d still fall, and landing would be dangerous. And if cloths and similar are not teleported with me, I also couldn’t take a parachute or wings with me.

    3 and 5 are the best, if you ever find yourself held captive. 7 inches can get you out of a cell, also cuffs if your clothes don’t teleport too. You can manipulate the toaster as a distraction or to start a fire.

    100% my choice.

    JackbyDev ,

    I hereby call bullshit on your reasoning for number five. The pill gods will give you control of traditional toasters only. In the event of toasters attached to other things you may only control the toasting elements. We preemptively declare CPUs are not toasting elements.

    Insig ,

    My cpu says otherwise, while playing some poe, could easily toast some nice batch bread while grinding out maps.

    arefx ,

    3 and 7 could be useful

    sharktongue ,

    Steal, get caught, escape.

    Lolors17 ,

    Apart fron all the others, number 7 seems kinda useful.

    brlemworld ,

    Yep. This cup has the ball in it because I can see inside the others. Give me my $20.

    3 and 7

    3 and 5

    Define container; reasonably, a room could be defined as a container. A container of what? And furthermore, define empty! Knowing when something’s “empty” has all kinds of applications. That and teleporting, even a few inches could be incredible, especially dependent on how often/quickly you could do it. 3 & 7, hands down

    Thorny_Insight ,

    The person making this has never had gravel delivered for their driveway

    Yep. I’m gonna dominate the gravel markets!

    Froglich ,

    Exactly, I’ll happily take that pill!

    Mobiuthuselah ,

    I saw that and thought, I’ll take two loads right now! No, three!

    Gravel is a very important construction aggregate.

    Although it depends on the mechanics for how useful 2 would be. Does the gravel just like appear near you? Is there just a guy who gives you bags of gravel? Do you have to go to a specific location to get it? Is there a limit to the through put? What’s the volume of output of the gravel. what type of gravel is it? Could it be processed for other minerals?

    Like, free gravel sounds pretty damn awesome based on the mechanics.

    ohlaph ,

    There is a guy who hands you handful of gravel, but no one else can see him. We’ll call the gravel type base gravel.

    After taking the pill, a pile of gravel the exact size and weight to be just enough to kill you lands on you immediately.
