minus-squareiAmTheTot@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·26 days agoI’m not aware of any shape that is defined by the angles of its outsides.
minus-squareSterile_Technique@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·26 days agoI think what the previous poster is saying is that the image does not have four 90° angles, but instead it has two 90° and two 270° angles. …I have no idea if that’s an actual deal breaker, but the logic is sound.

Lol
