minus-squaredeaf_fish@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·9 hours agoI suspect these lines are straight on a sphere. What we’re seeing is a square on a projected sphere.
minus-squareiAmTheTot@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·18 hours agoI’m not aware of any shape that is defined by the angles of its outsides.
minus-squareSterile_Technique@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·18 hours agoI think what the previous poster is saying is that the image does not have four 90° angles, but instead it has two 90° and two 270° angles. …I have no idea if that’s an actual deal breaker, but the logic is sound.
Lol
