Yes. I'd like to be able to fly down the internet and beat people to death with a metal baseball bat.

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

To have powers on this planet, you must use them for good.  You must be at peace.

lol... I don't think it is possible to have an IQ of 1,000,000,000.



The maximum possible score might be 300 or so.  Grin

Only the possible score has the limit. They have no way of knowing the real IQ with those stupid IQ test. How would they measure an IQ 10 million times than their IQ. What possible test they could use to measure that kind of IQ.

Simple teleportation would be enough. Saves me time, can travel the world more, start a business with it, can get me out of life threatening situations. Practical and not too much downside.

Tell that to the guys in the movie Jumper (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0489099/).  Grin

EDIT: though his idea of starting a business was robbing banks, so there's that...

EDIT:
 I read the thread title and thought you were asking if we had the option to eliminate military superpowers, would we want none in the world. (Oops)

Here is a new related article:

The End of Ideology?

On our TV talk shows and op-ed pages, and in our think tanks here, there is rising alarm over events abroad. And President Obama is widely blamed for the perceived decline in worldwide respect for the United States.

Yet, still, one hears no clamor from Middle America for “Action This Day!” to alter the perception that America is in retreat.

If a single sentence could express the seeming indifference of the silent majority of Americans to what is going on abroad, it might be the simple question: “Why is this our problem?”

If a Russian or Ukrainian flag flies over Simferopol, why should that be of such concern to us that we send U.S. warships, guns or troops? If Japan and China fight over islets 10,000 miles away, islets that few Americans can find on a map, why should we get into it?

And, truth be told, the answers of our elites are unconvincing.

One explanation for America’s turning away from these wars is that we see no vital interest in these conflicts — from Syria to Crimea, Afghanistan to Iraq, the South China Sea to the Senkaku Islands.

Moreover, the prime motivator of a half-century of sacrifice in a Cold War that cost us trillions and 90,000 dead in Korea and Vietnam — the belief we were leading the forces of light in a struggle against the forces of darkness that ruled the Sino-Soviet Empire — is gone.

The great ideological struggle of the 20th century between totalitarianism and freedom, communism and capitalism, militant atheism and Christianity is over.

Do you want superpowers?
Do you want the USA to "police the world" or focus on a strong defense which keeps our people safe?

Starting a business as in deliveries to remote locations, urgent documents, import and exports... That sort of stuff. I know you are thinking of smuggling too, but I am not  Wink

Why of course I would, x-ray vision would be great for starters...

That would be the best one.
Besides the whole seeing all the boobs in the world, one could also become the world's greatest poker player.
Unlimited income at the blackjack table, etc.

x-ray vision is definitely the way to go!

Sorry to disappoint, but anybody who was lucky enough quickly gets a ban from casinos. They have a system of unofficial and shared blacklists. Roll Eyes

Superman is a good choice for an interesting part-time gig.
Being Satoshi would be exciting.  Smiley
