Is this satire? SoaD is one of the most political bands I know?

Imagine a pizza. The pizza is 1. You cut the pizza into three slices: two slices are 1/4 (0.25) of the size of the pizza, the other slice is 2/4 (0.5) of the size of the pizza. We'll ignore one of the 1/4 slices for this question, as we don't need it.

Compare the 0.25 slice and the 0.5 slice, this problem is essentially asking "how many times can I fit the 0.5 slice into the 0.25 slice?", the answer to this is obviously... 0, if you're thinking in integers. Okay, but how much of the 0.5 slice could you fit in...? Half (0.5) of it. So 0.5 fits 0.5 times into 0.25.

Half of the slice that's twice as big as the 0.25 slice fits into the 0.25 slice.

Edit: Gone back and read other comments and... Holy shit y'all, have some compassion for people who struggle with maths? Nobody is helped or motivated by snarky comments. A concept that is easy to grasp for you might be difficult to understand for someone else for a variety of reasons. Somewhat relevant xkcd.

I told myself the same lie, week after week, until some day I realised it wasn't a lie anymore.

I'm not sure if this is a joke or not, but in case it isn't: Windows isn't stable at all, third party drivers or not. I've never had a Windows PC that I would describe as stable, including the preconfigured laptops and towers I've had. They all bluescreen and crash or freeze more or less regularly (but stability isn't what I care about when I run Windows).

Whatever the fuck my brain runs. It's done a pretty okay job keeping me alive, and that's worth something, right?
