Person: If I start at 0 and count up in infinitesimal increments to the number one how many numbers must I count?
Wiseman: infinite
Person: and if i start at 0 and count up in infinitesimal increments an infinite number of times what number will I arrive at?
Wiseman: all of them
@2ck I think the failing in this whole narrative is the fallacy of singular causes... For every effect there are an infinite number of causes, no one any more "the" cause than any other. So right from the get go the logic falls apart as it assumes a statement like "humans caused it" has any real relevance other than being one of an infinite links in a chain.
@Wetrix Most games tend to bore me. The gun from minecraft though is once you learn all the recipies and get into the underworld. Beating the game isnt particularly easy but its more fun than just building random shit endlessly.
@1iceloops123 Its not italian anymore, nestle bought it up a while back. Still its not bad as far as sparking water goes.
Trump, like all idiots, occasionally had a good idea or two. The problem is he was piss poor at executing on them. Partly his fault for acting like a moron, partly everyone elses fault for stacking the deck against him and exagerating all his failures.
@freemo
To be fair, a lot of the rise in COVID cases is due to Texas and Florida being run by culture warrior lunatics...
Even so, Biden still could have done something earlier rather than remain hands off until his recent vaccine mandate orders, so he's not blame free here.
I'm more annoyed with Biden about the fact that the FCC head hasn't been appointed yet after 8 months.
@mathlover I agree, a lot of the rise in COVID cases are not Biden's fault, just as it wasnt Trump's fault for similar reasons. The issue I have is the hypocrisy of blaming one and not the other.
@lightone Your own link you just shared is 502 error btw.
@lightone sure let me fetch it for you when im by my computer again later today.
@freemo
I don't idolize people- but rather my perceived aspects of them and the particular attributes associated with those conceived images of them. Many parts of many to fit a singular whole.
@lightone A public hub listing would be nice. Also other mastodon servers are welcome to integrate our code and bring the directory to their local instance.
