The punchline here is a little compact. I don't feel like it really gives the closure I need. Maybe if the basis for the joke had more continuity the humor would be less discrete.

...Just kidding.

You are just wrong.

The rigorous explanation for why 0.999...=1 is that 0.999... represents a geometric series of the form 9/10+9/10^2+... by definition, i.e. this is what that notation literally means. The sum of this series follows by taking the limit of the corresponding partial sums of this series (see here) which happens to evaluate to 1 in the particular case of 0.999... this step is by definition of a convergent infinite series.

He is right. 1 approximates 1 to any accuracy you like.

I don't see the acorn criminal around anywhere? I heard they haven't even found the body.

These are not mutually exclusive. Believe in yourself.

There's approx 14 million Palestinian people. To claim all of them are as bad as a group like Hamas is either incredibly stupid or incredibly bigoted.

Helping "bad people"? There's nothing inherently more bad about Palestinians than any other nationality.

Did you actually read the OP? OP is talking about specific kinds of social media that exclude Lemmy among others.
