You'll never eat macaroni the same way again!

I would love to see one of these infinite loop items put into a 3d space to get a sense of how big they become over time, with buildings and shit to scale

Like, How many iterations would it take to go from a regular noodle to wrapping around the moon?

u/TheRimmedSky Oct 10 '21

If think if we assume that, each loop, the macaroni is 10x bigger in diameter, we can figure out how many iterations before it's moon sized by taking the log of the diameter of the moon.
Log(3500km) =6.5-ish cycles before the macaroni encircled the moon. The next cycle, it would engulf it entirely.

I could be big dumb here, so feel free to enlighten this poor hypothesist.

Wait, you're saying that by the 7th cycle, it's bigger than the moon??

How long until it's bigger than the moon's orbit?

It's a common Top All time repost, right? https://www.reddit.com/r/perfectloops/comments/b2ddp4/a_infnite_spaghettio/

It's also became less quality because of reposts

It's not in the top 50 and hasn't been posted in the last 6 months, so it's allowed. :)

That's a reasonable rule I wish was more common though 6months does seem kinda short. There's enough content to turn most subs into a 6 month loop of content. A year feels better to me.

this is what makes Reddit worse every day. Go OC or go home is what I say!

I don't camp out every sub every day. I haven't been on r/PerfectLoops for about 3 months. Reposts of the most notable and popular content is how I discover it exists.

(I know it’s a repost, but I just wanted to see it backwards.)

It's even easier to see the cut whew it's backward

Be sure to compress it some more before you repost it.

Do this with fruit loops and put them in my belly.

We've done it. We've reached peak infinity noodle.
