Easy peezy, lemon squeezy!

It's the sixty degree angles that bother me the most about that. You just can't do those angles with Legos.

@JeffGrigg I suppose the 'nice' thing about a Penrose triangle is that the inner angles are 90 degrees at the vertices.

Love that that site exists

LEGO not Legos

LEGO® is a registered trademark of the LEGO group, but all too often it is referred to incorrectly as Legos or LEGOs. This is a simple site to help people understand the difference.

@benteg @catsalad You've been to Ikea again, haven't you.
@anne_twain @catsalad To the lego store.
But there's some funny mind-blowing stuff at ikea too.
(Don't search for "ikea paradöx", I warned you)

You are all gonna make my brain asplode!
@dianea
It’s the wrong side around, you have to try again. 🤷‍♂️

A toy from young Escher.
@dianea @benteg @catsalad @aks the most upsetting thing about this are the fake Lego blocks.
@kitschpig those are Duplo bricks, a brand of Lego for toddlers
@jakjak nice try - Lego for toddlers and would be smaller, not bigger, to fit their tiny hands.
@kitschpig you're right... Likely pleasantly flavoured too, to entice the young ones

Attached: 1 image Penrose triangle rendered using cubes. This is impossible to render by depth sorting cube primitives or by using a conventional z-buffer. There was some trickery involved that I was unsure would work as well as it did #genuary #genuary11 #genuary2025 #processing #CreativeCoding #GenArt #GenerativeArt

@benteg @catsalad excellent lego bill cipher!

My brain just had an adverse reaction to LEGO, which is a new one.

@benteg @catsalad

@benteg @catsalad Brick Bending (on youtube) could do it I’m sure!

@rl_dane @benteg @catsalad Have you ever played Echochrome (on Sony PSP)? ​

@cinnamon @catsalad @benteg

No, but I have seen demos of non-Euclidean minecraft mods, and they were pretty trippy. ;)

@benteg @catsalad ahh, this brings back fond memories of making a 3-d model of this shape in AutoCAD in high-school drafting class

@benteg @catsalad

ist das das erste Aufgabenblatt in der MPU? Hatte mal sowas ähnliches gehört: hier hamm'se 3 Kugeln; jetzt stapeln sie die mal....

wer anfängt darf aufstehen und gehen.
Kann aber auch beim Einstellungstest in der Personalabtelung gewesen sein, oder???
