The growth rate of items per day may may seem absurd, but it's actually much less than the acceleration in the 12 Days of Christmas song.

Infinite calendarception… but do you get any chocolate in this setup?

Once you reach infinity

[-] Hamartiogonic@sopuli.xyz 2 points 8 months ago

Sure, no problem. That’s only going to take an infinite amount of time, so we’re all good.

[-] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 2 points 8 months ago

Think of the chocolate at the end tho

[-] Hamartiogonic@sopuli.xyz 2 points 8 months ago

There is no end. Kinda essential part of the definition of infinity.

[-] murmelade@lemmy.ml 3 points 8 months ago

Only on Sundays but you get infinite chocolates.

[-] Hamartiogonic@sopuli.xyz 2 points 8 months ago

Fair enough, as long as it’s a countably infinite amount of chocolate.

Depends on the final advent calendars. I've seen one where the final product is an electric screwdriver, with screw bits and all.
