    What a wild counter-idea. "Go back in time and kill Hitler": played out.
    "Go back in time and clash with the invading aliens who have sent their own people back in time to destroy us from the past by installing players that will wreck us as a species over time": oh. As I say it, this is half-way to This is How You Lose the Time War

      humans are the same

      Only bevause we make tgem that way. You haven't seen enoufh variety to know what's software and what's hardware. Thats what im saying.

      Like having only ever run windows computers with x86 processors, from ms-DOS to win11, but only windows. Maybe you've seen a server edition, but more likely you haven't.

      There are underoying rules and underlying fundamental limits, and functions of what happens and is easy/hard are based on the x86 instruction set, but you have no way to know what's that and whats a microsoft windows thing.

      And im telking you, as someone who used os/2 back in the mists of time and linux mint a couple times and raspbian on ARM once, a couple versions of android, ios for a month, even saw someone run slackware once and had to work wirh a RISC based microcontroller:

      i dont know that I know enough to say what fundamental behavior is, but i know with certainty that you dont even have those glimpses into other worlds and ways of being that ive had. I just know it isn't what you're claiming.

      my life experiences

      Yes im sure youve seen subjected people in both koreas china japan vietnam and thailand, india and pakistan and armenia and yemen and jordan and south africa and bolivia and france and ireland and portugul and canada. And for some things those differences matter! But this variable is one you have not seen a range of.

      Your seemingly desperate need to impress - along with a number of other clues - strongly suggest to me that you're... shall we say... "not entirely truthful"?

      This is pointless. Go ahead & get it out of your system: enjoy one last opportunity to give me another fake Internet demerit as if it meant anything (note that I've not done the same - those you've received weren't from me). Just another of the several hints you've provided regarding how seriously to take your claims and assertions.

      Once again, good night.

        Anyone care to explain what a geometric rate is?

          not entirely truthful

          About what? The operating system i use? That was a metaphor!

            I skipped the metaphor entirely because it made no sense - particularly in this context (among other reasons). i was referring to several of your prior responses cumulatively.

                  that's assuming they are properly maintained and tire pressure is ideal. the nature of the car precludes this.

                      Yeah, that's basically how I remember it, though it's not always stats--the terms are used in other fields of math as well. A first calculus class typically includes a proof that the limit of the sum of an infinite geometric series (a + ar + ar^2 + ar^3 + ...) tends towards a/(1-r) where a is the first term and r is the ratio of successive terms, provided that -1 < r < 1. (Otherwise the series diverges and the limit isn't defined.)

                      Absolutely! I vaguely remember a discussion of geometric growth in at least one other course, but I was doing my best to give a thorough layperson’s explanation without getting into more analytic definitions for geometric series or the concept of continuity. I studied abstract/theoretical mathematics in my undergraduate degree, so I only really remember seeing geometric growth defined in statistics courses as far as applied mathematics goes as I avoided those courses where I could. I’m not in academia, and I did not pursue a further degree, so my apologies if I wasn’t entirely accurate. My mathematical theory is very rusty these days. lol

                            Oh, I only minored in math, I'm no expert either! Yeah, your explanation was really fine, I just thought the "sum of a geometric series" thing might ring a bell for some readers.
