4d

bro did you really just say the fourth dimension is time. bro this isn't relativity class the fourth dimension is not time but rather an additional dimension of space. what did you just say the fifth dimension was. no, that is it. i'm sending you into 196881-dimensional space until you learn your lesson.

- A message from 23 nights temple -

“When you feel empty, look up to the sky full of stars on that dark night, chant the Heart Sutra aloud. And listen to the vibrations and sounds of higher dimensions, three generations of the Buddhas* replying from hundreds of billions of light years away.”

(* three generations of Buddhas = all Buddhas existing over three lifetimes, past, present and future.)

-二十三夜堂からのメッセージ-

“空しくなったらあの無明の夜の満天の星を仰いで、声高らかに心経を唱え、何千億光年の彼方から返ってくる3世諸仏光音の響き��聴け”

(＊三世諸仏＝過去・現在・未来の3世にわたって存在する一切の仏)

Ya'll be caring about being judged by the most basic bitches and regular lame ass human beings .

Don't do that .

A circle inscribed in a square covers 79% of the square. A ball inscribed in a cube fills 52% of the cube. A 4-ball inscribed in a hypercube fills 31% of the hypercube. A 5-ball inscribed in a 5-cube fills 16% of the 5-cube...

A 9-ball inscribed in a 9-cube fills it up less than 1% of the way. Yet there's no room to fit a second same sized ball without intersecting the first - which contradicts my intuition of balls as especially compact shapes.

In dimensions 23 and up you can fit a little cube in the corner of the diagram that has a larger volume than the inscribed ball! Which is especially disconcerting, because the 23-cube has 8,388,608 corners. And even if you inscribe the little cubes in all eight million corners, your big cube will still be 99.5% empty space.

Why Pawns are the Worst 5D Chess Pieces

Pawns fuck everything up. They are my most favorite and most hated piece on the board. On one hand, they’re complicated, which is pretty interesting. On the other hand, they’re fucking complicated, which is infuriating. Let me explain why. Point one: Pawns are the only piece that make a distinction between “forward“ and “backward.“ When extending to higher dimensional space, the addition of extra directions begs the question, what does forward mean? Well, it depends on the layout of the board. Take this for example

We see that the x, z, and v axes do not bring us any closer to the opponents side, yet the y and w directions do. So should be allow a pawn to be able to move two “forward” directions (y-w) at once to capture? Obviously not! It breaks the balance of the game. Should we consider that restriction for all pieces? This is a fierce debate between me, and literally everyone I’ve every explained this to. I think we should. Point two: Pawns are a combination of 3 different pieces, each with unique conditions to their moves that almost no other piece has.

When actually coding an engine, you need to add all sorts of conditions that take this into account. The way I’ve done it is make the pawn a composite piece, consisting of a non-capture forward motion, a capturing forward-diagonal motion, or a starting double forward non-capturing motion. If we take this approach though, both queens, shogi pieces, and a check detector moveset can be defined as composites of other simpler pieces, with shogi pieces also utilizing “forward“ directions.

So complicated, but useful. Fine pawns, you win this one. Its interesting and actually not too hard, once you figure out all the fucked up conditions... for the most part...

Then you realize they can En Passant AND they’re the only piece to promote. Great, the promotion condition is made easy by defining extra-dimensional forwards, but the actual moves are worse. Not only is En passant only valid for one turn, but it also requires another piece be in a different location than the target motion, and captures a piece that it doesnt directly land on. No other piece capture works like this. Castling works fairly similar, and we can draw parallels to the two. You can view En Passant as first moving the pawn horizontally to capture, then moving it forward in a second command. Promoting is moving the pawn forward, and then moving a friendly queen on top of it. This also neatly applies to shogi drops. Castling is just moving the king and rook accordingly on the same turn, but like en passant requires another piece to be in a specific space other than where the king lands, and has non-checking conditions. Not that I want to think about Castling on a 5D Chess board, god forbid anyone fucking suggests it again. But what we learn from this is you need to break moves up into something smaller, that I call commands. A simple piece from ,piece to, coordinate from, coordinate to. By making moves out of these, they are also completely reversible. So great, moves are made of commands, we’re done here right? Not yet because this problem is made worst by the parallel universes.

See once we start introducing an actual multiverse, we start to need to perform multiple moves within a single turn, then submit our turn when all those moves are complete. Its not too bad if you’ve understood the move break down, but its still slightly annoying. Then comes the network. God fucking help me with the networking. Currently I’m writing a serializer that converts a turn into a series of integers and the nested structure is not conductive to that. This wouldnt be a fucking problem if it weren’t for the god damn pawns though. Note some of these are actually reverse pawns as well, so they can go the opposite direction around the torus.

Hyperseity / n-seity (Hyperseic / n-seic)

An ipseity centered around higher dimensions. One may feel as though they belong in a higher dimension, that they originally came from a higher dimension, or that their sense of self is influenced by forces that reside in higher dimensions, among many other possibilities.

N-simplex? Actually I find it quite complicated.

Imagine an ancient building that has been there for centuries has to be torn down because it's falling apart, but when they start to clear away the rubble, a strange, completely unmovable object suddenly appears out of nowhere, and nothing anyone does can get it to move. It just sits in the very center of where the building used to be, surrounded by cracked and broken stone. It is made of some solid, mysterious material unknown to current science, it doesn't seem to do anything except sit there, doesn't seem to be dangerous, but is completely and endlessly a mystery.....

aperiodic voxels

Aperiodic Voxels is the name of a Minecraft-like that someone is making.

It's called Aperiodic Voxels because it uses an aperiodic voxel grid.

that's the video of devlog 1

there's also a discord in its description

I love my 3-dimensional son, I love watching him grow up, and sideways, and backwards.

If only he’d mature on the inside.

Story prompt: A species of alien beings that understand all the complexities of the universe and have mastered space and interdimensional travel because they can think in such an abstract way and comprehend higher dimensions that are inconceivable to humans - but are critically inefficient and disorganized in fuck all else because they lack the linear thinking and lower-dimensional reasoning that humans have.

Human: So this is your ship! Amazing! What a wonder of technology! I can’t wait to learn all about it!

Alien: Thank you, btw watch out for that corridor, we must stoop to go through it.

Human: Then…why did you design it that way…why didn’t you build it high enough for you to walk through?

Alien: Huh, didn’t think of that.

Human: *glances over* Hold on, why is the pantry on the bridge? And why are there socks in the pantry? WHY IS THERE MILK IN THE SOCKS?

Human: *opens electrical panel* Oh my fucking god. Someone get me a toolbox this shit is atrocious.

"In a few years' time everything will change. Imagine yourself in the golden ray, imagine this golden ray is penetrating earth. What would you say if you see the golden ray is coming on earth, or in another scenario, imagine human-like hight vibrational people on earth. Imagine yourself on a different planet, what would be your reaction, would you be curious? Would you like to touch everything or everyone, or would you ask the questions about the life, about what they are doing, what they are thinking? We simply are on earth, in a different form, in the energy form, but we also have our lives on the ships sometimes, sometimes we don't have ships because as we travel, as the body shapeshifting. We have this ability; we also want to know people that whatever is coming is coming, so, maybe they can ask the question what do they expect to themselves, in their lives, to change. Why do they need extraterrestrials to show them the new way of living, of being? What do they expect to see on a different planet? We are truly family, we are truly family, we are truly family, every particle of Source is in humans in us, every particle is exceptionally, exceptionally, exceptionally loving and unique. We have only one message. Andromedas, Pleiadeans, Lyrans, are in support for human heart evolution. As every ray of light has different meaning in vibration, so we do. With our abilities, way of living, connections with others, how we see the world. We wish to address a stream of unconditional love is coming on earth right now, in people hearts is the connection with us, in people heart is all the information they need to connect with us, in people hearts through the mind, we can build together the fundamental change, fundamental change for this generation forward. People underestimate themselves; they think law about themselves, still, they believe in us as hyper humans, but we are not. We are species evolved from with they DNA, graciously, humbly in service we are to humans. If you wonna know more, ask." my personal experience during quantum hypnosis session, message came through from our galactic hybrid family
