Let's play this game again

It's more funny that way.
It’s not. It’s predictable and pathetic. Typical reddit level stupidity.

Would your reaction time change? Maybe the neurons in your brain would be going at super speed, but maybe your peripheral nerves would still be slow. So, the time between hearing something and the signal getting to your brain would still take ages. Or, the light would hit your eyes, but it would be a long time before that was processed into a signal your ultra-fast brain could use.

If you can't perceive anything while time is frozen as a consequence of biological structure, then your "side-effect" is just complete nullification. You wouldn't be changing your perception of time at all. Not much of a side-effect.
If your brain and senses can act at super speed but everything else in your body acts in real time, you'd still have an advantage in reaction time as you would be able to recognize and initiate your first reaction near-instantly.

I can now shoot fresh spaghetti from my fingertips. Each fingertip shoots a continuous spaghetti noodle at an alarming rate with a range of about 4 feet. My thumbs will shoot a delicious meat sauce at a comparable rate and range.
You must drink copious amounts of water to convert into spaghetti and meat (but immunity to water intoxication).
It takes something like 1800 gallons of water to produce 1 pound of beef... but I feel like that's too extreme for a side-effect. Anyone care to suggest a good ratio?

you notice peculiar signs that foretell great calamities but you can never make sense of it
Wait isn't that neurodiversity? Or is this just a default state of all people?

The ability to get my DnD group to have a sensible, routine schedule, with no cancelations.
But they want to change their character every time.

With the snap of my fingers I can instantly cause the death of authoritarian dictators.
You can't control which authoritarian dictator or when

This sucks because all of the responses are negative.
Then start making positive ones

ability to make people say/do what you want them to
But its mechanism requires a deep understanding of your target and makes you empathetic to their needs and desires. Ultimately, you are just really good at reading people and empowering them to stand up for themselves.

You forget what you like if you are changed for too long and don't have a detailed enough reference

Ability to make cheese at will.
wrote on last edited by [email protected]As word of your power spreads across the world, you become a god to cows by providing means to an end to the rape and exslavement of their species.
The combined belief of billions of cows grants you accesss to the physical and mental powers of cows. If you work to free them, you will become more powerful. And if you don't, you will be cursed to live out the rest of your days in an abattoir, where the hopes and dreams of cows go to die.
Either way, the dairy lobbies aren't happy and assassins are after you.

You are also able to end all wars
And are reminded of this with every cheese you create.

Just gimme photographic memory.
Your eyes make a camera shutter noise every time you make a new memory.

You arrive to desolate and wonderfully silent Antarctica.
For a time you are alone and happy in your isolation. Soon enough, thoughts start to slowly infiltrate your sleep and later your waking world. You can't understand them. They are weird and very distressing. Over time you are having difficulty thinking clearly. You want to run but you cannot. You want to scream but you cannot for the thoughts are so upsetting. Your days and nights are spent in abject terror as you feel your mind slipping. Your essential nature being pulled away from you. Even more frightening is that you are starting to understand and interpret images, thoughts, and ideas, but they are so... Alien.
From the aliens.
The aliens that long ago crashed here on earth. To keep themselves alive they merged themselves with their spacecraft in an unholy combination of life and technology. They have been trapped by time, buried under the ice, waiting. Slowly the machine intelligence has been corrupted, the living minds fractured and the remaining combined intelligence is insane, mavolent, and hungry for new thoughts and ideas. Your mind is but the first. Your arrival has awoken them from a deep slumber. The ice that has kept them from humanity is melting.
You, (are you a individual any longer?) hunger with them for thoughts that are not your own.
Unholy union is as unholy union does. The machine elves have woken up, and they want to fuck.
