Imagine being the first one being killed on any of these tracks.
The probability of that is...?
Mathematicians tell me, please, because my mind is breaking.

What about a time loop where only one person dies, but infinite times?
Actually... this means there are infinite people so:
Let X be the number of people killed = (-infinity)
As infity is defined :
infinity + X = infinity
infinity + (-infinity) =
infinity - infinity = infinty
So no people would have died black guy pointing at his head meme
Desnt work when they're different classes of infinity.
Okay, so what’s the point of “proving” that there some “infinities” are “bigger” than others? What’s the practical application here? Because an infinite hotel with an infinite number of guests is physically impossible, so I don’t see the point.
Practical application in math tends to be like three degrees of separation and half a century removed from the math at play. In this case, all of modern mathematics is based on set theory, so it's more that this stuff allows us to do other, more practically useful math while knowing what we're talking about.
i asked myself: wwjd? and now i ask you because i have no idea
I do what I always do: run to the trolley, then jump up and pull the emergency stop because I hate false dilemmas.
It'll make it through maybe 3 infinities before derailing. Go bottom, end it faster.
Like everything else in this holographic universe we live in, I’d just close my eyes and believe the bodies I’m trampling are imaginary.
Hold the lever halfway so the trolley picks both rails at the same time, to ensure highest possible kill comboq
Geez, disconnect the trains so you can hit both lines at the same time, obviously.
Can I group the people into groups of 1, then 2, then 3 and so forth? When the trolley is done with the killing, it will have killed -1/12 people.
I use the lever to kill the train driver.
