    Does 3 cost me any energy, or are there any other limitations on how quickly I can teleport?

    Yeah it’s a little annoying to only be able to go seven inches at a time, but if there’s no limitations or cooldowns, you can move seven inches every ~250 milliseconds. That’s pretty close to a mile and a half a minute. If it doesn’t exhaust you, that’s still a pretty efficient and speedy method of travel.

        Sure, but that depends on the person. You shouldn’t get that much more motion sick than you would be traveling in a car at 80 mph.

        You also aren’t technically moving, which is an interesting thing to think about. You’re standing still the whole time, and magically appearing seven inches ahead as fast as you can react. Your vestibular system shouldn’t actually detect any movement at all, so maybe people sensitive to carsickness would still be okay.

          Instant teleportation also would result in the sudden creation of a vaccum at your prior location, only 7 inches away. This cavitation would then immediately collapse in on itself from the surrounding air, and would likely result in some not nice things happening to your body as you experienced that shockwave. I guess you could continue to instantly teleport if the cooldown is basically zero, but no matter when you stop, you’ll always be seven inches away from your latest hole.

            surely it means you’re swapping places with the matter that’s in the way right? Otherwise your body combining with the air molecules would be pretty violent by itself

              Okay, but if we allow this then that means you are now an unstoppable war machine who can instantaneously rip apart any structure by teleporting into it, and moving those molecules several inches away. Kill anyone in an extremely violent partial teleport, destroy tanks, collapse skyscrapers, the world is your oyster! Being some demigod tier entity sounds too cool compared to the others though, easiest pill choice of your life.

    Can I manifest the gravel or is it like I can just jedi mind trick the delivery driver?

    Listen, teleporting is always so busted that even 7 inches is enough to teleport through doors, fences, or restraints.

    Only if your skinny and tuck your feet to the side though, even not though you’ll at least be able to jump higher.

    Imagine being ably to hook up a bunch of toasters to a computer and then being able to control the computer with them!

    I will build a mech from toasters. I will implant tiny toasters on to satellites and rockets to control the world from space.

    Are babies toasters? I will use my toaster powers to change the definition of toasters in all major dictionaries. The sun is a toaster. People are toasters. I control all life. Mortality is a toaster. There is no bread, only toast. Press the lever down again. The brave little toaster is a global icon. Press the lever down again. We are the immoral children of a loafing god. Press the lever down again. Mosquitos no longer exist, or maybe they do, they’ve just been transtoastified into kittens. Push the lever down again. No more paper cuts. Push the lever down again. Now I have a nice hat. Push the lever down again.

    Push the lever down again…

    Seeing inside an empty container might have a niche usecase where you can infer which containers are not empty, because you can’t see inside of them instantly. Maybe if you’re doing a job where you have to put away all empty containers, this would save time.

    You now can start a gravel delivery business with no overhead of having to quarry and crush rock. Massive profits while you undercut your competitors. Your rock gets magically delivered on Sundays you give all your employees off. A (magically) honest living.

      This certainly seems like the best out of these options. Start a gravel company. Infinite stock. If you can just create it out of nothing at the location of your choosing, you don’t even have to pay for trucks, which I imagine is probably a greater cost in the gravel industry than the gravel itself.
