FFS that's fucking beautiful. Plato was right about his solids being fundamental concepts of the universe. Geometry is beautiful. I made a simulation rendered in 3d with opengl, with 1000s of particles set with chaotic starting conditions and had the only forces acting on them be determined by the equation of coulombs law of electrostatic attraction.

Orbits begin to form over time around the particles with the largest charges and mass, but what's interesting is if you then draw the planes in which the particles are contained and bound by the particles orbiting, they begin to form basic polygons

the more you know niggers

yeah, no. brainlet single-mom-child/underage tier thinking. you can't even explain why the hair on your arm grows - the concept of god is that it is an intelligent being which programmed the universe from a different plane of reality. if you can't explain the code, you aren't the coder.

I got mine when I tagged along with my sister to a hippie holistics expo. There was a whole booth with stuff like that. I remember there were some more interesting shapes for like $5-$30, but I liked the simple cube the most. It's exactly 9/16ths on every side. pretty cool.

I used to do the same, but now I have this weird skin layer under my nails that grows along with it.

For the last half year I switched from biting to good ol' clipping, but the prolonged skin is still under every nail.

Lesson: Don' t bite your nails.

>As far as materialistic atomism goes: this is one of the most well-refuted things in existence. In Europe these days, nobody in the scholarly community is likely to be so unscholarly as to attach any real significance to it, except as a handy household tool (that is, as an abbreviated figure of speech). For this, we can thank that Pole, Boscovich, who, together with the Pole, Copernicus, was the greatest, most successful opponent of the visual evidence.

>... Boscovich taught us to renounce belief in the last bit of earth that did "stand still," the belief in "matter," in the "material," in the residual piece of earth and clump of an atom
