What's the simplest thing humans are too dumb to grasp? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

.333... Not .333

The "..." Here represents an infinitely repeating number.

In this context 1/3 = .333...

There's lots of proofs for this but this is the simplest one.

.333... = 1/3
.333... • 3 = .999...
1/3 • 3 = 1
Therefore .999... = 1

With EVGA out of the GPU market, what brands are good options for a new GPU purchase? in c/PCGaming@kbin.social

I was a long time EVGA user. I bought a Zotac 4090 (AMP OC) on a whim when I saw them in stock a Microcenter. It was sitting 2 feet away from me in my open air case for 3 months before my waterblock arrived and I could barely hear it even at full tilt.
