Yes, because the device you started the game with can do THAT... besides, that will just make Ananke angry. Can you blow up the internet without hurting yourself?

Well no, but I happen to be made of squishy parts, not mechanical. So the 'Hacking' aspect is useless. Unless you hack other things to do whatever, but i suppose i could just 'snap' delete it, erase it from history, or just hack reality and make it retroactively loyal to me.

The thing about controlling reality is that EVERYTHING is reality.

But I won't because its godmodding unsportsmanlike. And it would be mean.

Also because it's still prototype and chances are, an overshoot will create a tiny momentary black hole in your brain that is instantly fatal :/

Well i technically CAN'T get overshoots.

I get -1's to all rolls involving the PRB.

It's for the 2 functionality but I like to think it's to prevent me getting an inflated sense of 'Punish all inferior mortals' thing.

You should just turn landfill into usable resources, then build a launch facility for your orbital death satellite.

I thought that rule only applied to GMs. I see no harm in giving you great ideas, since we're all allied in the name of SCIENCE!!! If it means I die to advance our goals, then so be it.

I should really start making the effects of 1's and 6's on the PRB worse. Thanks for reminding me that thing is hilariously overpowered.

on the bright-side you can't get a 6, on the bad side, if you get a 0 now it'll probably be insta-gib deathy goodness.
