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 :)
Inflation would stop that eventually.
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
youtube for studying topics en-mass? my friend? have you forgotten that wikipedia is a website?
Well you don't see an ability to fly trough wikipedka articles on the list do you?
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
There's also a lot of websites with science papers so I'm guessing the knowledge would be nearly limitless.
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.
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.
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.
Amazon, 100%. Bezos doesn't get any money out of me, and Amazon has fucking everything. Sure, the quality varies sometimes, but who cares if you end up with a dud item when you can just try another listing for free? I'd order shit on the daily just for the fun of it, maybe start an unboxing channel even.
Do they sell food?
Yup. Whole Foods.
Yes but they also sell food online on their website (obviously only packaged and durable foods, nothing fresh).
That is correct, yes.
They have Amazon Fresh, Groceries on Amazon, and Whole Foods, as various options for fresh food ordered and delivered online. Many areas have same/next day delivery (free with prime+order min), I have noticed there is a difference in overlap between service areas with Whole Foods usually having biggest delivery radius/availability.

Yeah Morrisons, but you have to be a prime member.
You could also just order something super expensive for free and just resell it
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.
im going to watch so many elder scrolls lore videos
I'll finally get what dark souls 2 lore is about
All fun and games until you open a link to some playlists of nazi conspiracies
YouTube is just a better Spotify you can look at music thumbnails and just fly through instrument and music theory tutorials
Then the algorithm fucks you up and starts throwing Joe Rogan bullshit at you.
I'd just use Piped and adblock to control which ones I actually absorb.
While that's happening, I never considered scrolling through playlists of multiple mechanical and scientific shit and basically becoming Jimmy Neutron overnight. By then you'd be the greatest inventor/handyman/musician and I doubt a stray video about bullshit would ruin all of that
Tiktok is tempting if you could get a job as a social media manager
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).
Virtually any kind of business or marketing advisor gig, really. You'd be a golden goose.
Tiktok one is by far the best. Downside barely there.
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
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
My question is how would you know exactly how to play a song but not be able to play any instruments. That doesn't make any sense.
If you know how to play the chords for the verse, chorus and bridge then you know how to play it on guitar.
I think it would be like drawing. If you don't have aphantasia and have an epic image in mind, and basically only be able to put it down in stick figures.
In this case, you might know what strings to press and how hard to strum those strings. But you still need to get your fingers on those strings without tangling them and know how to pluck and strum them.
Oh man, as an artist and musician I feel this
As soon as you learn the instrument you know how to play every song on it, but that doesn't mean you have the skill necessary to play it
Muscular dystrophy.
Oh good one. Didn't think about that.
Or paralyzed from the neck down.
Not if you don't know which strings to press and where.
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.
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.
I pick Firefox, what does that get me?
It gives you the brain to not use the apps listed in the post!
Youtube. Would save me so much time...
But also the amazon one would be nice, it would just require a lot of careful planning.
Amazon will make me so much money that I can afford to hire people to shop other places for me.
You have to hire them on amazon though
No shopping involved if I just hire friends and family.
Only if you can buy friends and family on amazon ™
Amazon. I can have anything. Even if restaurants count as stores, I can cook. I can also sell my free cars to buy drugs or whatever from places that aren't stores. Heck, I can trade or pay individuals to do whatever.
It doesn't specify stores
It does say shop.
verb
So where you shop would be considered a shop. Sending someone else isn't really shopping.
The YouTube one is OP. I can learn so much.
So uber is pretty much just gta in real life.
YouTube. I don't want to drop shopping in stores for Amazon.
I'll get the amazon one and totally undermine the company
The YouTube one, for sure. I could learn so much!
But what if you're just glancing across the recommended thumbnails and learning things you don't want to know
I want to know everything.
Amazon has the best potential even if you limited the effect by 90% (one item a day). No stipulations about selling what you get
I don't think I could sustain myself on one grocery item per day
One crate is still one item
One 500 gallon tank of lube. And yeah, this is a real thing.
what's the point of selling when you can only buy from Amazon
Because only 10 of the items per day are free, and counting groceries you might want more.
Does AirBnb let me change houses every month. If so, that's what I pick.
Yeah, but you have to spend the last week cleaning it.
And you also have to pay for it being cleaned.
If not it’s the worst one by far
Yea.. Free housing forever? Fuck yea! There's enough nice houses in the world to keep me housed in luxury for the rest of my life.
I assume so, you can just never go back.
No problem if you just hop between copy and paste houses.
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.
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.
Well, that power is amazing for studying and tutorials
Seems like it would be perfect for you then, as you would never have to watch any video there, ever again.
AirBnB?
You can't buy a house on amazon...
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.
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.
Yeah, plus it feels like the trends for my age group are just the trends from younger people, but with a slight delay
I don’t understand the Netflix one. Can someone explain?
As I understand it:
You imagine "Game of Thrones: But with a good ending".
"Game of Thrones: But with a good ending" comes into existence.
You can't watch "Game of Thrones: But with a good ending"
The boatload of money that "Game of Thrones: But with a good ending" makes is yours.
Can I have any actor in it? This is just free money forever without consequences. Can't you pay another director to make his own version of your work so you can kinda see it? Sounds easy exploitable
As a car enthusiast, the Uber one would be a dream. I could drive any car, including all the supercars and hypercars.
If that's your thing there's companies that will let you pay a few bucks to take a super car around the track
I wouldn't call $250 "a few bucks." That's over 10% of the cost of my motorcycle which I've been saving for for a couple years. That $250 would be all for a glorious 10 minutes of driving one car, vs a year of riding my motorcycle for hundreds of hours.
I pick Flappy Bird.
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.
Easy, pick the youtube and binge-memorize all of MIT's curriculum
I can already sing and play the guitar, not brilliantly but idgaf, so the Spotify one is really tempting. But I learned to play the Guitar from YouTube, and also how to speed solve a Rubik's cube and pick a lock, so that one would be super useful too. In fact I could just type in "How to play X song on the guitar"
So one of those two I guess, probably the YouTube one because job interviews would be way easier after a quick scroll through the thumbnails of a quick search before going in.
Everything in the spotify one can be done with youtube, which is in turn superceded by the Chrome one.
I do not agree.
Chrome: I know everything about every web page I have ever seen but don't understand it.
So I don't understand how to play a song.
YouTube: I know everything in the video from the thumbnail.
Closer, but I have to rely on the people on YouTube knowing wtf they're talking about, meaning I gain knowledge about a lot of shit, and incorrect knowledge too
So the Spotify one, combined with the knowledge I already have of music, makes more sense for learning music.
Obviously using Musical Knowledge as the example
