I've started asking people the thought experiment "are there more doors or wheels on planet earth?".

@saxnot @fesshole does a voltage gated ion channel count as a door?

@Anke @michael @fesshole Aeroplane wheels. Some of those big ones have hundreds! (Antonov, Galaxy) Plus those low loader trucks and trailers with around a million wheels!

@fesshole Wheels. Many things have doors but no obvious wheels (houses, f'rex) but many houses also contain wheels — in the form of toys, collectables, model cars/planes/trains that have functioning wheels but non-functioning doors. Also, depending on if an entrance needs a solid covering to be a door, then that also discounts parts of the world where fabric or beads are used as doors, along with any open doorways.

Only a moron would ask chatGPT when it's far more interesting to think.

@Anke @michael @fesshole

Most office chairs have double wheels. One each side with the support in the middle.

So 2*5 = 10 wheels.

Then there are all sorts of wheel like things in industrial processes.

Everyone is forgetting to count the little doors on advent calendars.

@NormanDunbar @Anke @michael @fesshole I assumed they were talking about exercise wheels
Edit: like this

[arrrg@kolektiva.social]

@fesshole obviously there are more windows than doors.

@fesshole

My first thought was 'are gears wheels?'

Are gates also doors, or does a door have to be in a wall and not a fence? Then what about all the doors at the lumber yard not yet installed?

The eyes are the doors to the soul. A lot of animals have eyes. Some of them are even compound

Fruit flies have 7-800 little eyes per big eye. That's 1400-1600 eyes per fly and no eye lids. Why doesn't Dr. Who carry an overripe banana around to keep the weeping angels away? Time flies like a banana

@gbargoud @michael @fesshole Lego is the largest manufacturer of tyres, so on that basis I'm going wheels

[timchaffee@ioc.exchange]

@michael @fesshole some windows have 2x pulley wheels....... Wheelbarrows, lawnmowers, my Legos have wheels and doors, if we count gears I think wheels win, but who knows and I wonder if different LLM would give different answers.

[xethos@mastodon.xethos.net]

@saxnot @fesshole It doesn't matter. "Are they asking follow-up questions or ChatGPT" is what's really being asked

[lunarloony@dosgame.club]

@ainmosni @michael @fesshole I suppose this is the point of the thought experiment!

[ainmosni@social.ainmosni.eu]

@lunarloony

I thought the point was to weed out the people who offload their thinking to an unethical misinformation machine.

"4 wheels…"

Are you ignoring the steering wheel, or do you just live somewhere where every car is a Reliant Robin? (With no spare wheel in the boot, either, obvs.) 🤪

[reallylazybear@mastodon.social]

@fesshole I'm guessing wheels cos most cars, even small ones with just 2 seats have 4. Obviously there's ones that have 2 and 3 wheels like that blue car on live action Mr. Bean show. There's prolly 6, 8, 10 wheelers and prolly a few more than 10

Number of doors depend on how big and/or tall the building is and how large the rooms inside are. I'm confident there are more cars than buildings, but idk.

I mean I'm dumb by myself but I'd never ask gptslop for that, what the actual fuck.

[renardboy@mastodon.social]

@fesshole okay, but do revolving doors count as both

[renardboy@mastodon.social]

@saxnot @DamonWakes @fesshole but does it count as one wheel, or one wheel per ball
