I also spent some replying
Finite but not fixed, maybe the time spent on this caused me to miss some rendezvous with fate I otherwise had and so gained a great many seconds by it.
Thanks for wasting my time!
/s
This, but serious.
“The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time.” — Bertrand Russell or something. Also while finite, it is still very big number.
Another point, I am already on lemmy, I am here exactly for this purpose. Gonna read all comments too.
Are you going to read this one?
And reply too
Jokes on you, I’m here doubling down, spending more seconds posting this comment:
Have a great and fruitful rest of your life, dear internet stranger!
Eh, I wasn’t using them.
You were worth every single second
Eh, I watched Tron.
I was shitting at the same time, so whats your point? 😀
Yeah, it was this or the shampoo bottle label
*is a finite number of seconds
Either is correct because the sentence can be read with either number or seconds as the subject:
There are (a finite number of) seconds…
There is a finite number [measuring the] seconds
You bastard, you stole 14 seconds from me! I want them back, do you hear?!
You don’t read too good, do ya?
It took you 14 seconds to read that!?!?
3 times in the last 3h
Seems worthwhile.
It’s alright if it’s company time.
Thanks dick
You’re welcome.
