      What Your Favorite Map Projection Says About You

      Dymaxian

      You like Isaac Asimov, XML, and shoes with toes. You think the Segway got a bad rap. You own 3D goggles, which you use to view rotating models of better 3D goggles. You type in Dvorak.

        That can’t be right. Nobody likes XML.

          XML is fine when used in spaces it suits, though JSON is generally better

        Ooh so this sent me down a Wikipedia rabbit hole and it’s so fun! I’m deciding my favorite between:

        • Strebe 1995
        • Robinson
        • Goode homolosine
        • Waterman Butterfly

        They seem intuitive without much if any distortion. Really cool stuff!

        Funnily enough, I typed in Dvorak for years before I ever selected Dymaxion on that comic, but I have never viewed VR goggles in VR (my first 3d goggles were in the Pentium-1-with-small-hundreds-of-MHz-of-clock era)

        I needed a Trinitron monitor to get 60hz refresh in each eye
