Without time, there's no heat.
And the air itself would be like impenetrable concrete.
And there would be no light, as it would be standing still.
So you'd be unable to see, unable to breathe, unable to move, in absolute zero.
wrong. Time is relative.
such a machine, if it existed, would make you go(occulate) at 1.5 times the speed of light while retaining all preceptive inputs. at such speed your preception of time would be so finite that to you, time would stop, but to every one else less it would go on normal.

it is like a camera. We normally experience things at 30 frames per second. but if you took a high speed camera and made it film 30,000 frames per second, but played it back at 30 frames per second, the high speed film would have 16 minutes of content while the normal camera would have 1 second of content.

simply said, you experience 24 hours, but for every one else, only 1 second has passed.

the only problem with this is that either you're unable to interact with anything as you're occulating at too high a frequency (you would pass right through things). or because your physical entity is moving at 1.5 times the speed of light, the first thing you touch would cause an explosion that rivals the big bang.
That's not how time relativity works.
Yes, 'your' time would flow like normal, but the surrounding you're in cannot possibly support your life any more.
To 'normal' time, you would indeed be moving at the speed of light.
You'd also burst into a ball of pure energy because such a massive amount of movement/heat cannot be contained by any single body.
The heat would also likely ignite the atmosphere, but that's all beside the point.
To 'your' time, your surrounding would be frozen, like I said.
No light (because the photons would be hovering in mid-air, or move at the same speed as you. kinda like the doppler effect applied to an extreme), no heat (because from your perspective, because everything is standing still, and since heat=movement of atoms, no heat), no air (because, again, it can't move and the friction would be impossibly high, and you would be encased in it. it stands to reason that you would not be able to breathe air that doesn't move).
The world would not magically adapt to support your life.
Acctually, that is exactly how realitivity works.

Do something painful. pain releases chemicals that increase your focus and dull your preception. that painful act, be it a stomach ache, a gunshot wound, or touching a hotplate feels like it 'lasts for ever'

minutes turn into hours for you while you sit writhing in pain.

do something fun or pleasing. endorphines are released which increase your preception and relax your focus. be it a hot date, your most favorate food, or a slow dance with your most loved individual it will all 'end too soon'.

hours melt away like minutes and before you know it, the time has come to part.

Time is relative to the beholders preception of it.
a Bird experiences the world at half the speed humans do.
a snail experiences the world at twice the speed humans do.

but neither of them are in some sort of temporal anomoly.

as to your arguments against the physics behind it...
that is arguable.

if such a mechanism made you a 4th demensional being then you would see all time as it stands at all times, and thus by focusing on a single point you could experience everything of a single frame of time in the same way a 2 demensional picture looks to us.

it becomes hard to really wrap your mind around because we are 3 demensional beings, and our interaction with the demension above ours is mearly the perception of a single frame at any given time.

Is it wrong that the first thing I thought of was to grab (make) some thermite (okay, a metric fuckton of the stuff), head to Kansas, steal all of the cash from the WBC, then relieve them of their worldly possessions? (With holy fire, of course.)

No, I don't mean kill them, I'm no murderer, but I would leave them with as little as I could. If they complained about it then people could tell them that it was God's will that they were left with nothing.

If I had the time I'd do the same to Chris-chan, that jackass needs to man the fuck up and get a goddamn job.

For if there are multiple uses of the device: I would prey upon the people that abuse the welfare system until they wised up and got their asses in gear.

Wow, a lot of people here would steal stuff... I'm not sure what I'd do if I had 24 hours of frozen time. I'd save it for something important, like save the world... or something.

Pull a shit ton of pranks. Swap peoples shoes so their on the wrong feet, tie their shoelaces together as examples.
Probably steal some pretty stuffs as well.

Most likely it would be the most fun day ever, even if I am all by myself.

activate it in a shopping street and steal lots of money.
and maybe pants a few people for the hell of it.
also can I return to the machine and use up any time I have left later on?

Steal.

And sabotage police equipment.

That's about it I think.

I love how a lot of people are either stealing stuff, touching other people's bodies, or just generally messing things up. I've seen a few good samaritans in here so I haven't lost all hope XP

Ah, I love this one. Basically tell someone "If you were in a situation where you could get away with ANYTHING what would you do?" and watch them turn into the worst kinds of id-controlled pricks.
I know I'm not immune. Steal everything, molest everything else. Touching boobies is the starting point. Oh yeah, and find and smack around a few of the people who need a good smacking.
