Show Contentrbn@sopuli.xyz208·9 days agoIt’s four-sided, not two-sided. If that one counts, you can also just use a regular six-sided one and just put three ‘ones’ and three ‘twos’ on it.
Show Contentmacniel@feddit.org221·9 days agoThis die can only ever land on two distinct sides so it has two sides.
Show ContentRhaedas@fedia.io172·9 days agoIncorrect. It can land on two different sides. Or it can roll off the table and under something, leaving you in a state of limbo.
Show Contenthemko@lemmy.dbzer0.comEnglish201·9 days agoIt has only 1 corner, and 2 surfaces, making it 2 sided. The 2 sides just happen to be curved
Show ContentArchpawn@lemmy.world17·9 days agoIt has two sides. They’re curved, and it doesn’t stay on the curve part, so you can effectively use it as a d4, but it’s still only two-sided. Sort of like how you can flip a Mobius strip like a coin and it will land one of two ways, but it still only has one side.

Ah, dice lawyering.
All dice are quantum dice!

define ‘side’.
How many sides on a ball?
Inside, outside, and, depending on the ball, offsides.
Fair point. A ball has either one or infinite sides from my perspective.
