The power to always pack exactly the right things that I will need when I go somewhere.

Photosynthesis would be really nice. Even if it didn't totally replace the need for food it would be cool.

I just want to get the USB in the right way on my first attempt. Is that too much to ask for?

[โ€“] Spasmolytic@lemm.ee 9 points 2 years ago

I wanted to reply with an image of USB C that appears Holy because it is your savior, but this was the closest thing I could find.

Having a hydrophobic presence covering me at all times, sans wanting to shower, drink water, etc. so I could run, bike, hike in the rain and never get wet, unless I wanted to.

Another fun one would be having the ability and skill to cook anything I want without training or recipes. However, I would gain an excessive amount of weight though.

I always thought it would be cool to be able to imitate any sound effect. Totally useless but perfect for jokes.

"always knows the right action" is a S tier power in the superhero book "Worm."

It basically meant the person could accomplish any goal, even if it took 1000 actions.

I alread have my super power and love it: high definition vision in low light conditions.

Bright lights hurt my eyes and I only get my supervision in b&w but it is really useful.

Hmmm.... I guess never having my shoes come untied. That seems B-tier enough lol

[โ€“] NorthWestWind@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

I already have. Things break 10 times faster when I touch them.

[โ€“] Kase@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

I'll take always being able to understand what people are saying, even if the voice is muffled or on a low quality recording or whatever. In conversations, I'd never have to ask people to repeat themselves.

(It doesn't mean I could understand any language or code, just that I can correctly make out the words.)

Gets the USB-A the right way the first time man, which is really an underlying true power of like a glove man, where no matter what it is, it will always fit - like a glove.
