You take one trip on the plane, and there are 1000 other people on it. Your chance of death is 50%.

You take a second trip on the same plane, having survived the first trip, and this time there are 1,000,000 other people on that plane. Your chance of dying in that second trip is still 50%.

It really is that simple.
You don't understand. The plane's chance of crashing on any one flight is not what is being asked. That's why I said he worded it poorly, because it sounds like you're just getting on a plane that has a 50% chance of crashing. Again, that is not the question.

I thought I explained it clearly, so I'll try again.

In half the cases in which this plane flies, it never lands a single time. In all of those cases, you are the one passenger on that flight, because the problem says so.

In the 50% of cases that make it past the first trip, half of those crash. Those crashes represent 25% of all possible cases. Within that 25% of cases you have a 2/3 chance of death. You were either on the first flight alone and landed, or you were one of the two who died on the second flight.

The pattern continues.

You've fallen for the misdirection in the OP. For any one person taking one or more trips on the plane, the number of other passengers is completely irrelevant.

The number of passengers only matters for questions like "What's the expected number of deaths in this fact pattern?"
My (correct) answer assumes each passenger is a unique individual. All that matters is that you are one of the total population.

I think the answer approaches about 80.33% chance of dying. I forgot this is the internet and you can just google "sum calculator".

The way you worded it, it is 50%.

I'll answer it based on how I think it was meant to be.

In 1/2 of scenarios, 1/1 passengers die. That's you. You're already dead half the time.

In 1/4 of scenarios, 2/3 passengers die. (First passenger makes it, the next two die).

in 1/8 of scenarios, 4/7 passengers die.

In 1/16 of scenarios, 8/15 passengers die.

I think you get it.

So to calculate the odds of you dying, you add (1/2) + (1/4 * 2/3) + (1/8 * 4/7) + (1/16 * 8/15) + ...

or

1/2 + 1/6 + 1/14 + 1/30 + 1/62 + 1/126 + 1/254 + 1/510 + ...

The numbers will continue to get smaller, but you are fucked.

buncha oldheads itt
As an oldhead, I will note that I don't have many issues with new slang or new jargon, so I will explain my answers.

"Feels". This term wreaks of insecurity; which automatically makes it uncool. I have no doubt 95% of the people who've said it are men, because women wouldn't feel the need to avoid saying "my feelings" or "I was emotional". The childish tone of the word emphasizes how immature the user is. It's a lot like "preggers", a word teenagers have used because it mitigates the seriousness of a very serious situation.

"Let's Go!". I hear children say this a lot. Sounds normal from them. But every time I hear an adult say it, it's clearly planned, forced, not genuine. Adults shouldn't feel the need to do that. Either you're fake, or still way too impressionable. You're the mom trying to fit in with her daughter's friends.

"Breed". It just sounds dumb. There are a million ways to say "fuck", and you picked the one that makes you sound like you cum in under a minute. Also it's just bad sounding. Like, "breed her with whom, or what"?

TC isn't upset about antisemitism. They're upset about something they wrongly think is antisemitic.
I'm not speaking for him since I haven't read this whole thread. But pointing out how antisemitism bubbles to the surface when Israel does something terrible, is not the same thing as saying criticizing Israel is antisemitic. Yet if you do express concern about antisemitism giant straw men are cast upon you. Why that is, should be addressed.

Amazing how being upset about antisemitism means people will accuse you of supporting what Israel is doing. Remember when we were concerned about Islamophobia after 9/11, because it could lead to our fellow citizens being harmed; and we didn't accuse people of supporting terrorism just because they feared Islamophobia? Allegedly liberal antisemites sure have different values when Jew is involved. Yall are some straight up Tucker Carlsons when it comes to one specific form of bigotry.

In this day and age criticizing Israel means you get a pass if you throw in antisemitic rhetoric. Then a bunch of antisemitists will insist that nobody ever does that, because their biases prevent them from recognizing it, and antisemitism isn't real unless it's explicit and literal; despite being the same people who would argue about how subtle and nuanced other prejudices are. But they're antisemitic, so their standards change when they hear "Jew".

This board's consistent denial of antisemitism is disgusting.

No, what was scummy as fuck was the previous system of releasing a full priced game, adding four new fighters, and releasing an entirely new full priced game. What we currently have is much, much better. Why would you apparently want to return to that over being able to add them via DLC? Why would we want to return to fifty versions of Street Fighter 2, over just being able to choose to buy new fighters individually? Unless you're going to say new characters simply... Shouldn't be added at all, and people should just have to wait 3-4 years until the next game comes out?

EDIT: And before you say it, no, "Just add new characters and support the game for five years entirely for free" is not an option, because that's literally saying the devs should do work for you for free.
You really don't get it. It is their business model to stagger completing projects with when they are released. They aren't postponing releasing content out of necessity. Releasing them late is the plan. They have the same amount of time to work regardless if they choose to milk more money from older games instead of working on the next game. The amount of content they can make is the same; they just found a way to scam people.

Yes, it does, because if you bought the game, then you deemed it a full enough game to warrant your purchase. If it wasn't enough, then why did you buy it?
"Full enough" doesn't even make sense. A game is either full or not. If you don't have access to all the fighters in a fighting game, you don't have the full game. You bought it because you want the new Street Fighter or whatever. Selling a fighting game for $70 and charging extra for literal fighters is scummy as fuck.
