Humans are peacefully with each other and only wage war against aliens or animals threatening to kill them.
Granted. Now there's no class war, and the rich fully exploit the poor knowing they are not in danger
(Sorry, some monkey's paw vibes)
No suffering, no dis-pleasurable state, no undesirable reality exists. Everything that is, is deemed good by all beings that can judge it (if any). This has, as a consequence, no moral dilemmas, no conflict of wills and interests, no tragedies, etc.

No more Pauli exclusion principle. I'm not smart enough to describe what that world would look like... which is exactly why I would do it.

Is hard to pick one.
Altruism is the default instead of selfishness
Cancer doesn't exist
No harm could come to children. No one would have wicked thoughts towards them. They'd fully recover from any non-lethal injury. They could get sick.
If you eat a piece of cheese, you get to levitate for 10 seconds no more, no less. Doesn't matter the size of the cheese or the type (this includes lactose free).

Gravity doesn’t exist. All matter interactions are by electromagnetism and Ver Der Waals forces only.
Granted. Matter never collects in a way that would allow for life to be created.

I was going to say this but for the weak nuclear force.
I'd create an actual god with morals of absolute good that rules over humans with an iron fist. Political debates? There's an objective answer and the god knows it. Do something wrong? Get warned. Do something very wrong? It's brainwash time.
being an asshole should be painful
Every time you’re unreasonably rude to someone, you feel a pinprick inside your nostril. If you’re a right jerk it’s more of a stab. When you assault someone the pin is a kitchen knife. Murder and rape make you feel a lance of fire in your sinuses. It could work, nothing else has

Honestly, i may be the most hardcore atheist, but it would be sweet if there was a God. You could know good and evil for sure, everyone gets what they deserve even if it's only in the afterlife, everything has a purpose...
I think it is objectively true that nature is chaos, we emerge from nature, and everything we believe in (currency, nations, laws, good and evil) are just social convention; all of that is the truth, and adapting to the truth helps me live a better life and make better decisions. But it's hard. It takes mental effort to accept that you're not the center of the universe and it's a disappointing thing to learn. I'm tired and i want someone to hand me meaning and purpose on a silver platter.
I personally think meaning is simply about cooperation. Pop-sci video explaining basically what I mean better than I probably could.

Any and all personal gain becomes mutual gain.
- If you don't intend to cheat anyone, the party you're interacting with gains in a similar "amount" as you
- If you achieve personal gain at the cost of someone else, their net gain will be even greater than yours
- In case there's no direct party you're interacting with while gaining (such as you running a red light when no one's around to be inconvenienced), society as a whole gains
So kind of enforcing karma as like a universal truth? I like it!
People can't hurt each other.
What if it is an accident? Do both parties just get erased from the universe? Or is all malice just gone from the human will?
No, it's more like
"teamplay": 1;
"coop": 1;
and then you punt your buddies into lava with the rocketlauncher.
Water freezes from the bottom up instead of top down.
I... Uh... Hm... 🤔
What does this do?
maybe it would look like a reverse snowfall underwater if the ice is buoyant? I imagine if the ice stayed at the bottom it would be interesting evolution wise since most things survive the cold by being at the bottom.
Is it your cake day? What's the cake next to your name mean?
If so, happy cake day!
