If you could have any superpower related to technology, what would it be and how would you use it?

just a fun question to spark some conversation and maybe some interesting answers lol

I'm thinking X-Ray vision (that I can enable / disable at will) would suffice.  If somebody is packing heat, I certainly don't want to start an argument with them.

If they're packing heat, lower the volume a tad.If they're packing heat, lower the volume a tad.

I'd want the computing power of Data off Star Trek Next Generation.

The ability to clear CMOS on people brains. 

Once they start being too much of a hassle, back to defaults.

I would go with the ability to manufacture things like jetpacks or other tech using only everyday materials and my mind. Basically, I want mind controlled nanites. 

Oh no I'm having car trouble! Nanites do your thing. My GPU failed! Let's go nanites!

Maybe have the ability to encrypt my words so I can talk to someone in public about something private or personal without having to worry about others knowing what I'm saying. Of course the person I'm talking to would have to have the ability to decrypt my words so they could understand what I'm saying. Also, although this is not really a super power, I would LOVE the ability to copy text or ULR off lets say my phones touch screen with my fingers and then past it to my pc, only using my fingers. Basically grabing text off one screen and pasting it to other.

Maybe the ability to project any visuals out of my head/eyes. Want to watch a movie? Who needs a TV, I'll just project one onto the wall in front of me. I suppose I'd need to have some kind of capability to store this kind of data, but basically, I'd want to be a walking Netflix or even a gaming console (play games on the fly).

Put your memories into live video projected from your eyes. Now that would be awesome.

A mute/close button for my thoughts. Oh man I have so many thoughts running through my head all the time. Also I constantly have music playing in my head. Not sure if it's related to ADHD or not, but I hate it lol.

This got me thinking... the ability to actually "Shut Down" at night for bed in an instant. 😂 

That sounds like the best one yet!!!😁

Never thought of my brain like that. Sound like a pretty good interpretation of my mind at times!😄

A superpower related to technology ... Hm.  I liked @cpurpe91's nanite idea.  But I'd want to use it to help others, like cleaning up the planet for various pollutions (and maybe the polluters?).  I could program them to remove the micro plastic particles in the water, or clean the air for CO2 and such things.

The FPS player in me wants a wired in Aimbot and wall hacks 🙂

Unlimited respawns would be cool, too. That way I could do all the stupid things I wanted to do and NOT chicken out. 🤣

Performance over Pretty.
