I didn't say infinity was a real number. I said there were infinite real numbers and proving the assumptions true would take forever, that you could never increment to the one single case where "infinite" 9's could, under your tard misinterpretation of infinity, prove it false by acknowledging infinity-1 isn't intelligible. You can't increment to infinity, so you can only infinitely forever prove that more and more and more and ever more 9's in a number of 0.9+n9's × 10 would equal 9.9+(n-1)9's.

You not only dont rationalize infinity correctly, you can't identify when i'm abiding by classical definitions and when i'm not. You dont even understand infinity at a basic level that could offer you an edge of comparison. You just literally don't even know what infinity is or even might or could be.

Define the curve and it can probably be done with algebra

My favorite part about stars is how they all seem to have an orbital plane conveniently relative to earth. Really makes it easy to discover extrasolar planets and transsolar debris

n:1 = 1/(1/1) = 1 +
n:2 = 1/(1/2) = 2 + 1
n:3 = 1/(1/3) = 3.3 + 2 + 1
n:4 = 1/(1/4) = 4 + 3.3 + 2 + 1

No one has ever measured the speed of light m8. You've been lied to about lightspeed.

So you're saying the universe has infinite energy?

A few years back I read an article about portable toilet companies filtering the contents of their tanks and then selling the resultant proteins to pharmaceutical companies for huge profits.

I haven't been able to find any other information about this practice, so maybe it's not true. It sounds feasible, though, doesn't it? Has anyone here heard of such a thing?

Ive heard that one before
