Given infinite time, all things possible are inevitable, infinite times.

SantalBlush•29m ago

Given infinite time, is it possible to randomly draw a rational (instead of an irrational) from the interval [0, 1]? And if so, is it possible infinite times?

katzgrau•25m ago

Or, there is no time. Awareness traverses the grand graph of possibility.

Disclaimer: total armchair philosophy.
