More. I love places like this so much! They are full of junk and treasure, the mundane and the mystical. I’ve been to antique markets in Lagos, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and now… Kochi. 😃

Spinel:
- An oxide mineral
- Forms via metamorphism
- Can be various colours due to impurities
- Its name comes from the Latin word "spinella" (little thorn) because of its pointy octahedral shape #minerals

squirreled away somewhere i’ve got a promo cd the mars volta released for i think octahedron that had one song etched into vinyl on the outer ring of the cd, but it also plays in a cd player
No, these are not 7 inches. Target is selling tiny mini-CD records at 33 RPM that hold one song on each side for $15.

I drew in 2 days Olympia with the Aramis school outfit and I learned two things with that drawing :

1- I really need to make the base canvas bigger, I like details but my canvases are always too small to allow detail

2- I might try to mainly do pixel art, I feel like it might fit more how I draw.

🗽 Skip that geometry LOD and let #AmplifyImpostors(▶️ 50% OFF◀️ ) for #Unity3d do its magic! 🇺🇸 Or skip geometry LODs all together, experiment to see what works best with Octahedron(smooth transition between views) and Spherical(lightweight) impostors.

anyway thats the vibes. i just put anything i want, some of it will just be low effort sketches, please enjoy if you want or don't if you don't want. here's an octahedron floating in clouds

@ericaklarreich.bsky.social Have you ever seen these geometries: 1) Five tetrahedrons, on top of five octahedron on top of five tetrahedrons with a natural gap online here: 81018.com/15-2/ or 2) a dynamic gif you can see at 81018.com/planck-polyh... It is all quite fascinating. -Bruce

Fine, let's try a new ray guiding idea: store 8 directional weights (1 per octahedron face) in each probe, and use them to guide random ray generation. Here's what the "best random ray direction" looks like once the weights more or less converge:

I’m voting for the only Co ore in the Ore Cup, the superconductor mineral #Carrollite. Co serves many industrial, medical, and artistic applications, from battery and magnet technology, to radiotherapy, to glass and ceramic glaze coloring agent.

Sometimes we tell simple, but misleading stories about scientific progress.

First he argued that the spacing of the 6 known planets from the Sun were related to the 5 Platonic solids, each encased in a sphere and nested one inside another. He had to order them selectively: octahedron, icosahedron,

Apparently a d8 shape is called a regular octahedron

The shape of the ship on the back cover is a stellated octahedron, a geometric figure that dates back over 500 years. You can look at it as two intersecting tetrahedrons (triangular pyramids) or the 3-dimensional equivalent of a hexagram. 2/4

The tetrahedron, cube, and octahedron were known since time immemorial. As for the other Platonic solids, the ancient Greeks discovered the dodecahedron by looking at pyrite crystals (which frequently take this arrangement) and the icosahedron by examining the T4 bacteriophage.

which means, among other things, that if you put a point at the center of each of the faces of a cube and connect it to the adjacent faces, you get an octahedron. 3/
