Stop the calculation... Your cat needs help!
(lemmy.world)
"Assume a spherical cow"
"In a frictionless vacuum"
A spherical cow of uniform density in a frictionless vacuum.
(Stolen from Lemmy)
I know how to solve this, but my solution only works for spherical cubes in a vacuum.
Huh, I thought cats were a liquid.
Put it in a box. Problem solved.
Anyone seen Space Truckers?
The only thing I remember from that movie is the gas powered wang
Of papa Lannister, no less.
Is cube a simple shape in physics? It' 3-dimensional and It's gonna do all sort of crazy flips due to aerodynamics and moment of inertia. I would prefer a 1-dimensional point like cat.
How would a point like cat be one dimensional? It would be zero dimensional. A one dimensional cat would be a line.
sorry. 0-dimensional cat moving in 2-dimensional space.
Weren't the cats 3 dimensional? Dude this water sure is messing my percepcion of reality, for a moment I really tought we were living in a capitalist dystopia, uff.
I prefer 'cubiform', but I never realized that cubicle could be an adjective.
Not spelled that way
There was a newspaper article about flying cats, where journalists assumed them flat and rectangular to simplify calculations
TIL that cubicle is an adjective and a noun. I was calling things "cube like" until now
Cubicle is the noun (mini office); cubical is the adjective (having cube-like properties). :)
Oh, the spelling difference got me. Thank you!
lmao true
