A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Get rid of videos and we probably still could.

Wikipedia is ridiculously small

No it wouldn't since it wasn't made at thr time.

English not your first language? No worries, see the "would have"? That phrase signifies a hypothetical - I'll leave you to ponder what hypothetical situation could be meant in this particular case, but spoiler: it involves comparing features of things that were constructed in different time frames.

Why don't you go figure out what a shower thought is before berating this guy.

[โ€“] [email protected] -1 points 8 months ago

I'm not berating, I'm helping clear up some confusion about the conditionals.

No it doesn't

That's just the intermediate value theorem.

If we define the size of the Internet as a continuous function, and it started at zero and currently doesn't fit in your phone then yeah, no shit, at some point it fit in your phone.

If it's truly continuous there was an exact point where it would exactly fill up your phone with no room left over.
