PLEASE CHECK THIS OUT. Our own Aeronmelon is going through some shit at the moment and could use some help. Check it out here and consider an upvote or a comment to push it into activity. Sorry, not something I do often or will be spamming. But I care about my friend and if I can get a couple more eyes on his situation then I’m going to try to do what I can.
I found this to help me imagine the shape:

Wouldn’t that make the face on the right non-planar?
That scutoid (possibly all of them, I don’t know) is just a pentagonal prism with a corner cut off.
If you’re free to put the center vertex anywhere, then I’d think you could position it to avoid that…
Cylinder side also non-planar, yet not a problem. Paper sheet area does not change when curved.
STOP MAKING NEW SHAPES.
WE HAVE ENOUGH SHAPES.
The Universe: fuck you, i do what i want
Cybertruckoid.
SEE?
END THE MADNESS.
im playinf way too much shapez 2 atm. cool game, i recommend
Scutoid these nuts, lmao
Polygottem lmao
scutoids be like



Jesus Christ lmao
The area is very easy to calc, its only adding clear poligons, basic geometry. Somewhat harder to calculate the volumen of this thing.
Volume is also nothing but polygons, where accuracy depends on number of slices.
Or: dump it in a water tub and measure height of water line.
Yeah, the easy way, but not so easy with pen and paper (also only basic math, but a lot)
Hard to say if the integral can be solved analytically or not.
It’s not hard to say at all, “if the integral can be solved analytically or not” is hardly a tongue twister
Try “she sells sea shells by the sea shore.” Now that’s hard to say

Scutoid is best toid!
Better than rheumatoid stuff.
What other toids are there?
It’s just a joke on the “hexagon is bestagon” saying.
I know, but I wanna know about the other toids, to see if the scutoid is really the bestoid.
Altoids
No Crtltoids or Youngtoids or sum?
Looks like a bunch of triangles to me
You may ignore curvature for this assignment
Ma’am before you said that I had already started to convert to a flat earther our education system thanks you.
honestly not even sure how i remember doing complex math in hs
I used to be pretty good at math, especially when it comes to shapes. The other day i had to calculate a triangle to order bricks, i almost lost my damn mind.
Wake up everyone, a new shape just dropped!
Wasn’t this discovered years ago?
God damn your spam is everywhere
Just block them and move on if you think their posts are spam
They’re commenting on the text that I made to two rounds of post trying to help a friend escape an abusive relationship. They’re quite angry about it and, in yelling at me for spamming it, has resorted to spamming the same comment over and over again on every post I’ve made.

Looks like you did manage to help them though - so just ignore the troll.
FWIW I’d only seen one of your posts. Glad to see your friend has a a way out.
Oh I’ve been around on lemmy for a couple years now and trolls like that aren’t exactly a threat. I don’t mean to sound full of myself, but I just post way too often for them to even noticed anymore. I usually get sent screenshots or links on Matrix/Discord like “LOL did you see this?” to which I definitely did not. Was just hard to ignore every single post having a single comment on it, something that isn’t really that typical for Lemmy. Especially not that quickly. I keep an eye on general trends of things. If people don’t like a thing I stop posting the thing. But individual children screaming into the night? Meh. All I see in my head is just a giant filter with [REDDITOR] written over it half the time.
But.
Even if I did give the remotest of a shit about a toddler, I don’t care about this circumstance. I post a lot and I made a deal to myself that I’d take two rounds of posting and add in a link to Aeronmelons post. He made it a week ago and didn’t get a ton of attention. That combined with a ko-fi issue meant that things weren’t super awesome for him. So I wanted to boost it again a little bit. Bump the thread. He’s going through hell right now and I went through something similar but far less brutal. I’ll do a lot for my friends and this? Isn’t much. So even if I did care about people getting angry at me on the internet, I don’t care when it means that there is a chance to help him. WELL worth the trade off, as far as I’m concerned. I’d gladly do it again.
Doing nothing is easier and might make people happier but doesn’t get anything done. If I piss off a few people then oh well. I’m sorry for that. Hope they forgive me. But I’m not sorry I did it. I hope they can understand that, even if they don’t respect or agree with it.
I think maybe people sometimes forget the other posters are people, and (I see this way too often) get offended if you break internet etiquette or their own sense of ‘how to behave’ - in reaching out and trying to make - or help - genuine connections.
In short, taking themselves online too seriously.
Considering the fact that like… I barely talk with anyone from Lemmy? Accurate. I’ll send messages to people because I’m either bored or lonely and we hit it off with some comments or something and everytime the reaction is just “Wait why are you messaging me?” and it’s like “No one ever messages me first.” I don’t know why. I adore it when a user joins lemmy and sees my username, reaches out, and then asks for a couple times. A few people have done that, a few sticking around too like IninewCrow, and it’s one of the few times that I feel like a user too and not just a poster. Was really fucking weird at the start when I was commenting in other peoples posts and having reactions like “STAMETS KNOWS WHO I AM” and like… I do use this website too. So when there’s a dude on Lemmy who I’ve had a good connection with who is going through HELL I’m going to try and use the position that I’ve apparently got to try and help him out just a little bit. Not constantly and not spamming it on every post today, but a couple times to hopefully bring some attention to it and help him out. Even if it’s just a tiny bit then I did something and I can stop hating myself quite as much.
I do love it when a bit of humanity shines through. Especially what with all the doom posting. Not that there isn’t doom to post about but you know what I mean.
Looks like a pentagon on one side and hexagon on the other, aka soccerball pattern. I would be very surprised if the volumes don’t work out close enough just approximating them with [average area of ends] x [length]
