    Sure, you are now the owner (of a copy) of the "Rex Nihilio" album from Massachusetts death metal/deathcore band "Obliviation".

    A little rough around the edges, but solid stuff, no complaints. Really not bad for a monkey paw thing.

      Hmm, I was going to say you go insane but I see you've covered that. Okay, nice. Any question you ask will receive a safe response (answered if possible). However, you must ask the questions out loud and every answer given will be in a booming voice that nearly everyone hears around the world. The answers do not physically or mentally harm you, but other people may have psychotic breaks depending on the questions you ask:

      (To be clear, the wish doesn't give you the second ability to talk to animals or transmit thoughts. You'll have to ask about whether those things are possible.)

      Fair. I would argue that "many people going insane" would be covered under the sacrifice clause, but hey, this seems like the best of all possible outcomes from mucking about with reality.

        For the lazy, here is the summarization of my local AI:

        You'd like to have a powerful ability: being able to ask the universe any question in modern English at any time, without limitations or rituals, and receive an answer that's:

        1. Understandable by your current self (no significant changes to physical or mental stability)
        2. Delivered within 3600 seconds (an hour) of asking
        3. Reformatted if necessary to protect your stability
        4. Includes explanations for unknowable questions
        5. Avoids circular logic
        6. Doesn't require an unreasonable sacrifice (if a sacrifice is needed, you'll be informed)
        7. Allows transfer of answers to another individual, as long as they can understand the answer and meet the previous conditions.

        In essence, you want to have direct access to all knowledge in the universe, without any negative consequences or sacrifices that might harm your well-being or stability.

        Yes, unlimited access to universal truth, with error reporting, but I've read enough monkey's paws to know how this goes.

                don't.

                if you didn't think it worth the time to write it, why should i take the time to read it? surely it will be worthless.

                i'm not here for the bots.

                          I'm fine with them knowing, at 0.9c subjective time they would only know for the rest of their lives, which is just 4 minutes
                          Assuming you did not accelerate the Earth to 0.9c but changing the inertial speed and trajectory of Earth.

                            Get the audiobooks. Listen to it in the car. But yeah, one of the plot points is basically exactly this, where people can effectively have a "save point" in life. I won't spoil it, but it's great.
