The honey one is just as useless as the honey extension itself, otherwise the YouTube one seems like it would be super op for studying topics en-mass

[-] kayaven@lemmy.world 20 points 10 months ago

I'll have to disagree with you. You could buy a lot of items cheaper than $1 for free (insert the I'll take your entire stock meme here).

You might not be able to sell them on, but you can probably solve world hunger with it by just giving it away. And if you insist of seeing personal benefit: surely the positive karma you get with people could get you something in return. Also no one said anything about trading instead of selling :)

[-] Scubus@sh.itjust.works 10 points 10 months ago

Yeah but you'll get spoiled on every show you watch, instantly comprehend the utter bullshit of any flat earth video that gets recommended, and you'll have seen so much celebrity worship.

Good God, kill me before I suffer

[-] shneancy@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

youtube for studying topics en-mass? my friend? have you forgotten that wikipedia is a website?

[-] olutukko@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

Well you don't see an ability to fly trough wikipedka articles on the list do you?

[-] shneancy@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

having omnescience about a website implies you learn things that are on it instantly, which means a short rabbit hole of clicking on wiki links has the ability to earn you multiple degrees in a week if you're smart enough to comperhand the topic (this said please don't use wikipedia as your sole resource)

and there's always the random article button if you run out of ideas of what to search

[-] HerbalGamer@sh.itjust.works 4 points 10 months ago

There's also a lot of websites with science papers so I'm guessing the knowledge would be nearly limitless.

[-] De_Narm@lemmy.world 55 points 10 months ago

Some are great. Take the Chrome one: Go to wikipedia and know something about pretty much everything. A lot of knowledge is useful even if you don't properly understand everything.

Youtube is a lesser version of Chrome.

What'sApp entirely depends on how easily gullible rich people would give you money. You could probably just sell those information too.

Netflix and Amazon could yield some nice money.

Spotify would massively decrease the barrier of learning new instruments if you're into that. But many of the benefits can be achieved by scrolling through notes/lyrics with the Chrome benefit.

[-] MimicJar@lemmy.world 19 points 10 months ago

Chrome + Wikipedia was my plan. Plus "website" is so vague I could also read millions of books. Grab a spot on a show like Jeopardy and become the new chanp.

[-] nul9o9@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Reading technical documentation on Chrome would make you an incredible subject matter expert. At the very least, you'd be able to get degrees and certifications pretty easily.

[-] redempt@lemmy.world 33 points 10 months ago

the YouTube one, are you kidding me? I could find a free course on how to do nearly anything, I could just scroll through a playlist and instantly learn months worth of material.

[-] BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee 8 points 9 months ago

im going to watch so many elder scrolls lore videos

YouTube is just a better Spotify you can look at music thumbnails and just fly through instrument and music theory tutorials

Tiktok is tempting if you could get a job as a social media manager

[-] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 13 points 10 months ago

Yeah, and with the way social media works, there's a decent chance that after establishing a pattern of being able to predict trends, you'll be able to choose them. You don't even have to be a social media manager to make money from that. Sell celebrity status. Or don't when someone comes to you but you can't predict them going viral.

Or on a different angle, you could predict stocks that are about to go viral. Depending on how far in advance, you'll also be able to predict future events and things like election outcomes. If you use your power to become well known on social media and can get stuff about yourself trending, you'll be able to predict your own life. And if you can set trends with self-fulfilling prophecies, you could start revolutions or bring down regimes (or at least generate popular opposition).

[-] cooljacob204@kbin.social 11 points 10 months ago

Tiktok one is by far the best. Downside barely there.

[-] turddle@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Yeah people are hopping on the Amazon one (which isn’t a bad choice) but predicting the future of trends like that is powerful. Especially once you become accustomed to it and can capitalize on them

[-] wesker@lemmy.sdf.org 11 points 10 months ago

Virtually any kind of business or marketing advisor gig, really. You'd be a golden goose.

[-] casmael@startrek.website 18 points 10 months ago

I think the loophole here is Spotify, because with all that knowledge, you are two or three relatively minor skill issues away from total musical mastery

[-] generic@iusearchlinux.fyi 18 points 10 months ago

I pick Firefox, what does that get me?

[-] clubb@lemmy.world 19 points 10 months ago

It gives you the brain to not use the apps listed in the post!

[-] TheSlad@sh.itjust.works 16 points 10 months ago

Youtube. Would save me so much time...

But also the amazon one would be nice, it would just require a lot of careful planning.

[-] wesker@lemmy.sdf.org 15 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

A couple of these are really tempting. I need more information about Amazon, specifically do I get to choose the free items? There doesn't seem to be any stipulation that I can't resell them, so that's good.

[-] esc27@lemmy.world 15 points 10 months ago

Seems easy to loophole around as well. Since the downside is “you” can only shop at Amazon, you just need someone else to do your regular shopping. Of course you could be screwed if Amazon ever shuts down.

[-] BananaPeal@sh.itjust.works 13 points 10 months ago

Amazon will make me so much money that I can afford to hire people to shop other places for me.

[-] macaroni1556@lemmy.ca 6 points 10 months ago

You have to hire them on amazon though

The YouTube one is OP. I can learn so much.

[-] Aesk@lemmy.world 12 points 9 months ago

The Tiktok one is definitely underrated. You could start the most successful advertising company. Or grow a content farm worth billions.

YouTube would be insanely powerful, but only if you can control it. It could be a disaster if you open up YouTube and immediately fill your head with Jimmy Fellon clips and various Top 10 lists.

[-] JayJay@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

So uber is pretty much just gta in real life.

[-] Mediocre_Bard@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

The YouTube one, for sure. I could learn so much!

[-] ZOSTED@sh.itjust.works 9 points 10 months ago

But what if you're just glancing across the recommended thumbnails and learning things you don't want to know

I'll get the amazon one and totally undermine the company

[-] AgentGrimstone@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

Amazon seems like a no brainer compared to the others. The Youtube one is awful, I spend half the time trying to avoid videos, not watch them.

[-] hswolf@lemmy.world 12 points 10 months ago

Well, that power is amazing for studying and tutorials

YouTube. I don't want to drop shopping in stores for Amazon.

[-] atlasraven31@lemm.ee 10 points 10 months ago

Does AirBnb let me change houses every month. If so, that's what I pick.

Amazon has the best potential even if you limited the effect by 90% (one item a day). No stipulations about selling what you get

[-] spechter@lemmy.ml 10 points 10 months ago

I don't think I could sustain myself on one grocery item per day

[-] noli@programming.dev 10 points 10 months ago

One crate is still one item

[-] Tangent5280@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

One 500 gallon tank of lube. And yeah, this is a real thing.

Spotify. I can already sing, and do so semi-professionally. I can kinda play two instruments and would be down to become better at them through practice if I already know how to play every song.

[-] Cheskaz@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago

Yeah, plus it feels like the trends for my age group are just the trends from younger people, but with a slight delay

[-] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago

I pick Flappy Bird.

[-] Name@feddit.nu 7 points 10 months ago

Netflix if it allowes movies already watched. Give me them Marvel royalties. Otherwise Chrome for endless information gathering, or Spotify to revive lost songs and symphonies.

As a car enthusiast, the Uber one would be a dream. I could drive any car, including all the supercars and hypercars.

Easy, pick the youtube and binge-memorize all of MIT's curriculum

[-] ZOSTED@sh.itjust.works 5 points 10 months ago

Amazon, if I could figure out a way to cost them mad money, like getting AWS Snowball to ship servers back and forth, forever.

Otherwise the Chrome one sounds the best.

[-] SuicideSorcerer@lemm.ee 5 points 10 months ago

I don’t understand the Netflix one. Can someone explain?

[-] Stern@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

As I understand it:

  1. You imagine "Game of Thrones: But with a good ending".
  2. "Game of Thrones: But with a good ending" comes into existence.
  3. You can't watch "Game of Thrones: But with a good ending"
  4. The boatload of money that "Game of Thrones: But with a good ending" makes is yours.
