This didn't age well.
Speaking of the original post, seems like it may be possible to run a 2D CA on a total aperiodic tiling?(I think the spectre will be better to use,no chirality problems)
EDIT: Seems like this is not a new idea :)

To clarify, there is a forum called “Moderator discussion” (which unsurprisingly, only moderator can see and post in). The stuff in there is pretty boring based on screenshots, though users have joked about huge discoveries being hidden in there.

I don’t understand. Once I post this, I’ll have 170 posts and when I click on the link to search for them, it’ll still say that I have 170. Let me know if you see anything different.

Welcome to the forums! You have some pretty neat finds! Just so you know, according to forum rule 3a, try to avoid consecutively posting in the same thread without good reason. Also, I'm not sure if these patterns have been discovered already, so be sure to double check if they've already been found.
Nice to see more new members in the forums posting :mrgreen:
