Nah, you can always rely on the Hilbert Hotel for a good night's rest. Your room is down the hall, just keep walking, you'll find it.

This hallway will always feel like home to me
All you gotta do is ask everyone to scoot down a room (or two, not sure if Sis and the boulder are looking to share a room) and you'll find there's plenty of room.
I won't have the heart to separate Sis and his lil boulder
Given an infinite number of rooms and guests, it is highly likely both he and the boulder are already there. So he should go to the hotel where he already is and has a room
Happy comes from hap, which is essentially luck. So happy can imply lucky or fortunate. If he gets to the hotel and finds he already is checked into his room in an otherwise full hotel, then he is indeed lucky and likely happy.
An infinite set doesn't necessarily contain every number. And the Grand Hilbert Hotel is known for having a strict policy against Tartarus convict's
Given an infinite number of rooms and guests, it is highly likely both he and the boulder are already there.
I don’t follow. He’s clearly not there already, being at the switch instead of at the hotel.
But if there are infinite guests, could he not have a reservation?
Have to ask all current infinite reservations to move to x 2, now you’ve got 2x the open rooms as all current infinite reservations are even rooms only.
A hotel room being "full doesn't necessarily mean the guest is in the room at that very moment, just that the room us reserved. And given infinite rooms it's basically guaranteed one of those reservations is for sisyphus
Since the potential of not being accommodated is given, we must assume he doesn’t have a reservation.
Not pictured but relevant: the lever controls a mechanism which exposes a switch to a subatomic particle- the switch is triggered depending upon the state of the particle, and will release a poison into a sealed box containing a cat. Depending upon the status of the cat (alive or dead), Sisyphus’s boulder will be diverted.
Everyone in the hotel shifts two rooms down. Sis and boulder take rooms 1 and 2, now empty, respectively.
You have made infinite people unhappy by forcing them to change rooms. But Sisyphus is happy so who cares about the rest of them
but the room two rooms down is always occupied, for eternity. If you were to instruct everyone to pack their bags, exit in exactly 10 minutes and move two rooms up, you're always going to have people being late and not vacating the room, so you'll be dealing with people at reception complaining that they don't have a room, or that there's someone in their room. If you're telling people (or indeed boulders) to move into occupied rooms anyway, then just tell sis & boulder to move into the first two rooms without moving anyone. If you're not, then wait for someone to check out, as they'd have to wait for a nondeterminate length of time anyway.
Send him to the hotel and call ahead to ask the bellhop to ask the guests to all move to the room that's numbered twice the one they're currently staying in.
Nice hotel stays make most people at least happier, plus now half (minus one) of the rooms will have opened up for the evening!
"yes because he's rolling it down a hill for once"
- someone on tumblr
What part of "one must imagine Sisyphus happy" isn't clear? You've got to do it!
Bang a rang
Irrelevant Sisyphus is always happy because he's always working out.
It's okay, he'll always have Bouldy there to lean into.
If Sisyphus wants destruction, then I think diverting it is the best. Even though the ship has no original parts, it is still a ship, even if it is a model of the original ship.
Happy doesn't even mean anything. Sisyphus has purpose, and that is enough.
I fucking love trolley memes
Sisyphus would only be happy if he ends up on a game show where he can win a car if he picks which one of the three doors is correct. Sisyphus picks door number 1 and then the host reveals door number 3 as one of the doors that does not have the car. The host gives Sisyphus a chance to change his pick to door number 2. Does Sisyphus change his pick?
He doesn't change his pick. He just divides his decision into an infinite field of points, moving half of them to door #2, allowing him to fully choose both doors.
Sisyphus could try to change his pick, but he could never get there. He could only change half his pick, then half his remaining pick, then half the remaining remaining pick, and so on until nearly all his pick is changed. It could never be entirely changed though. It also comes with free choice of topping.
Zeno says hi
he can try
Let’s cut all the philosophical crap and focus on what is most important here.
Would you still love me, now that I’m a worm?
Yeah.
I'm in for the infinite cruise ship of David Theseus.
Thats fine. Give us all your source code then, asshole.
