  • No. That is not my logic. It’s the logic of Rene Descartes who invented the thing you are trying to talk about.

    And because gaslighting attempts online are hilarious, I’ll assume you just didn’t read so good and will repeat myself again; we tend to rest the plane on the floor, as it is in our reality with gravity it is easier to conceive. Like modelling a car, it’s wheels on the screen spend most of the time pointed down.

    You don’t have to. You can model it any direction you want, but most people find it easy in an orientation that mimics common perspective. But however you do it, you still can’t have a Z axis without a plane. That’s the point. Grid is plane and plane is needed for Z. If you have a grid on Z it’s representing an infinitely possible slice through extrusion and that’s basically a concept behind some fractals, which introduces a new vector for new XYZ points within.

    I know you really want to be right but this is very long-standing foundational and basic stuff we just do. It isn’t my logic or opinion, I’m sharing this knowledge to you, something you can very easily look up yourself right now and forget I even exist—which would be neat.


  • You’re mixing up perspective with the object’s actual coordinates system. The “left-right-up-down” are your perspective or computer screen and do not define the axes of the object itself. The object has its own.

    If I rotate a map on a table, it’s X and Y don’t suddenly flip. The coordinates belong to the object, I’m just viewing them from a different perspective now.

    In mathematics, the Z axis only exists because it’s defined as being perpendicular to an existing plane (the plane X and Y form). The gridlines represent that plane and Z’s extrusion values reference it. Your perspective or viewing angle don’t influence these coordinates at all.

    Commonly we face the XY plane down as it’s “floor”. We build things from the ground up. We draw from top down. It’s just how gravity brought the standard around. You can flip it however you want, though. But if you see a grid, that’s a plane and Z is extrusion off that.


  • I know Z as upward. X and Y were always on the base plane representing length and width. Z comes in being all like, “Now we’re being 3D!”

    So wherever the “floor” is, represented with gridlines, boundary, canvas, etc. that’s where they live. That is Flatland where there is no up or down. It is 2D where most of my work is. If you try tell me Y is Z, I’d ask “wtf is a Z?”


  • It’s already more appealing for the private individual, which makes you wonder how businesses aren’t in the same boat, being all for profit and whatnot. I think it’s just old business mindset of the support being worth the cost, but that can come for internal hire with more intimate knowledge/speed of the environment, resulting and less downtime/issue/progress, obviously paying itself off very quickly.


  • I think that’s specific to mammals. Just off the top of my head…

    Invertebrates? No. All out

    Fish? No. Also a Hammerhead would’ve really sold this comic lol.

    Birds? No. Though, even on the side they do often have a tilt toward frontal in a lot of predatory birds. It could be argued…

    Reptiles? No.

    Amphibians? No. There’s no even trying to place rules on that optical chaos.

    Mammals? Yeah, pretty much. Can’t think of an outlier but I’m sure there’s plenty of obvious ones.

    Edit’ Ah, there we go. Of course marine mammals are an exception. But back in land, as too are llamas. Makes you wonder…what are the llamas plotting?




  • Show us how the strongest and fittest do it with that esteemed advantage of “basic science”.

    Fuck the ecoologists. We await you and your cat’s venture into the realm of 5d natural selection chess. May all living things not deemed cute and cuddly disappear so the strongest and fittest live on, unhindered forever more.

    And you have had two scientific studies presented to you at this point, so, we’re sorry we failed in presenting arguments. Backhanded comments is all we have left now. It’s what plants need.



  • All of Oceania is this. There’s a lot of unique land animals that evolved with no threat. European colonisation really fucked that entire region and the ecosystems within.

    On average, each roaming, hunting pet cat kills more than three animals every week. The numbers add up. On average, over a year each roaming and hunting pet cat in Australia kills 186 animals. This number includes 110 native animals (40 reptiles, 38 birds and 32 mammals).

    That’s for Australia’s 3.7M pet cats that aren’t kept indoors 24/7. So that’s approx 407M native animals killed each year by cat lovers that don’t responsibly take care of their cat—71% of cat owners. Factor in other contamination and habitat destruction, you can expect that to be closer or even over half a billion native animals killed each year.

    So, yeah, Oceania countries will hunt and kill cats. And anyone that doesn’t keep their cat inside or at least bell it’s collar, is a real piece of shit. Certainly doesn’t give a fuck about animals and the environment. It’s a totally different part of the world to Eurasia where it’s fine to just have strays all over the countryside because they’re actually a part of the functioning ecosystem.
