Okay so this thread is for pictures that are not really funny but just look cool. Animations are perfectly acceptable.
Here is my first one. It's an animation of a 4D hypercube I found on wikipedia.

EDIT: I will periodically be quoting pics which should go in FUNNY PICTURES instead. :mischief: ;)

Strange, I was looking at exactly this picture earlier today, in Wiki too. :crazyeye:

I used to write fractal generators on my Amiga when I wasn't playing Civ (That's Civ1).

Edit: now in spoilers, it's a bit big sorry.

Ahh I have some I wondered about posting but what is the defining line between funny and cool?



I find this cool as it is an actual worker overseeing some very cool robots....

That sort of interface could one day run lumber harvesting robots like this one
(though this one is meant to be run by an onboard human.
future bots of a similar build may one day harvest the moon etc.
That is if the military will let it go. Its stuck with them now apparently)

What would it be harvesting? There isn't any lumber on the moon.
