If the universe were infinite what would be the average distance between identical copies of yourself?
>>
infinite
unless you want the distance between two almost (You)'s with their differency < some treshold

Are you sure that the universe being infinite implies identical copies of you? By what principle and why do you believe that principle?

Monkey on a typewriter kind of thing.

>>8289662

That seems very informal. Are you really sure that the universe is of similar density everywhere?

>>8289662
decimal representation of pi is infinite but it doesnt guarantee that it contains a certain finite subsequence

0.100111000011111[6*0][7*1]...
is infinite and non-periodic, but doesnt contain any 2's

>>8289676

Yeah, assuming the universe is "the same" everywhere. Same density, same fundamental particles and laws of physics etc
>>
why do you popsci retards always talk about the dumbest shit
>>
>>8289683

Lack of formal education

There's a youtube video that does some math assuming a human occupies roughly [math] 1 m^3 [/math] that there ought to be another copy of you within something like [math] 10^47 m [/math] away.

whoops [math] 10^{47} [/math] meters
