I think the ... here is meant to represent repeating digits.
Yes, but why am I being downvoted? My point was only that .9 repeating is still less than 1 in tangible measurement, did I misunderstand the meme? The whole joke (I thought) was about being pedantic
If someone could let me know where I got lost, I would appreciate it because being down voted feels... really bad
You're being downvoted because you're wrong.

If it's less than 1, then it isn't repeating indefinitely, which is what the ellipsis indicates.
I appreciate you taking the time, and I understand where I was wrong. Thank you
EDIT I'm going to take down my comments because it's affecting my mental health, so for those of you that see it as deleted by creator, I made an incorrect statement, was given information on why I was wrong, and that's about it. Please just downvote this to oblivion instead, I think I will process this being down voted better
This is the third time today I've seen someone admit they were wrong and thank the person that explained it to them. I know lemmy is different from reddit but holy hell that's unheard of on the internet in general.
Keep being excellent, you and everyone else on this site.
