Bottom. No matter what your “real” number assignation in the queue is, theres an infinite number of people before the train gets to you. Therefore every single person will live a full life before the train reaches them.
In the end it depends on your definition of “bigger”. Traditionally, we use “bigger” to just refer to who has the highest number or count, but neither apply here.
Imagine we have a straight line of skittles. Lines with more are defined as “bigger”. Now imagine the line is expanded into another dimension, a square. Is it still “bigger”? Each line has the same count, so it’s traditional “bigness” value is unchanged…
The sizes of infinities are about set theory, and including more “dimensions” of number. Not really about which has “more” or “grows faster”. Your even v all integers is actually a classic example of two same-size infinities E.g. an infinite stack of one dollar bills and one of ten dollar bills are worth the same

This genuinely surprises me, I can understand having driver issues, but I honestly have had a perfect experience with extended desktop and screen mirroring, never a single problem. While finding Windows’ to be ass
