The ultimate conceit is that infinities are a wonderfully engaging concept, but truly comprehending them as a tangible thing is inherently futile. We want to make these comparisons. They do, in some ways, hold some kind of meaningful as a concept, because we like one thing to be bigger or better than the other. But, at the scale of infinity, these comparisons are arbitrary and largely meaningless in any practical way.

The mind-bending thing about it is thus: there are an infinite multitude of "you" throughout the multiverse expressing every "you" that could, or even could not, be. However, there are infinitely more realities with no "you" at all. The set of infinities containing an expression of "you" is necessarily smaller than the set of infinities that do not contain an expression of "you" simply owing to the very narrow nature of eventualities required to express "you" into existence. In point of fact, that set if infinitesimal labeled "you" is infinitesimal in comparison to the set labeled "not you", and yet still uncountable in its infinity.

I'm thoroughly enjoying it.

Wow, I had forgotten about how much I loved these. My favorite phone ever was the HTC G2. LOVED that keyboard!

Add in an IR blaster, and that's my whole list.

I drive a Ford F-550 every day. To drive 20 special needs people to work and back. Because it's a bus.

Mythbusters really was the best TV has ever had to offer in its heyday.

1/4"? Feh. I use only XLR for my audio needs. /elitist audiophile

I bought a USB-to-aux adapter because my current phone does not have a headphone jack and my vehicle doesn't have Bluetooth. I use it literally every day, sometimes for hours. It's utter nonsense that they are getting rid of them.

The Statue of Liberty was at least original. The Daleks have been "wiped out" so many times, only to reappear with either minimal handwaving to explain how, or with explanations that take entore story arcs to explain only to be retconned two seasons later. They are the original 'somehow Palpatine returned'. It's tired. The Cybermen are almost the exact same story.
