[QUOTE=Novangel;48938686]If your nipples don't distort the very fabric of reality and drive men insane at their gaze it's just not enough.[/QUOTE] Sounds like the city of R'lyeh from Lovecraftian literature, a city composed of buildings which occupy non-Euclidean space. It's said that if humans even gaze at this city, they'll be driven insane.

[QUOTE=Novangel;48940256]Hence the transdimensional breasts part :v:[/QUOTE] Figured that's what you were referencing! I just happened to read about non-Euclidean geometry today, since my friend is working on something involving it, and I ran across that little tidbit.
[QUOTE=Joxalot;48940090]holy shit these threads still exist[/QUOTE] No. You're just seeing things.

I (ALMOST) dont remember any of you but picture 2 large arms enbracing your entire body cause I kinda missed this place too :c
Well I just accidentally ratted myself out for dicking around instead of working. :idiotcull:

[QUOTE=MEOWTFLOL;48940338]but how :huh::huh: god damnit math why are you so confusing[/QUOTE] Well first of all, non-Euclidean geometry is impossible, so we have to rely on tricks to actually illustrate it. This is easy to achieve in pictures through clever shadowing and perspective, which tricks the viewer into believing that the image is possible. In the video I showed, non-Euclidean geometry is illustrated by a portal behind the columns, where if you go through it, it actually takes you to another part of the map.

[QUOTE=matt000024;48940379]despite looking funny it is still euclidean.[/QUOTE] Elliptical and hyperbollic surfaces aren't Euclidean iirc Like if you drew a triangle on the surface of a sphere the angles inside would be greater than 180 Of course 4th dimensional objects are non-euclidean too

It's just impossible to build in 3D with current human technology.

[QUOTE=MEOWTFLOL;48940427]:huh:[/QUOTE] For non-euclidean 4th dimensional objects it's best not to think about it since we'd never understand it since we've been living in a third dimensional world all our life. It's like trying to imagine what a 1 dimensional world would be like Imagine seeing every surface of an object from one angle without moving it. It's just impossible to think about.
hello
i spend too much money too quickly it sucks

Also four-dimensional objects, at least Euclidean ones, are definitely worth thinking about. We discovered quaternions through them. I don't understand them at all, but my point still stands.
