Why? Does a cube floating in the void not have angles?

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world -4 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Without a distinction of where the cube begins or ends it does not because there is no cube and there are no angles.

Fun fact - there are no actual cubes anywhere in the universe. All geometric shapes are an abstraction. There are no cubes and no angles, so that checks out.

The cube begins where the void ends and ends where the void begins.
