a noose or an axe both put much more need on the skill of the executioner, while the guillotine puts more need on the skill of the engineer. both the axe and the noose are materially simpler, but still very fuckupable without special skills or training, while the guillotine, once built, is much more simply operated by one with less expertise. the guillotine is a tool of mass execution, and its apparent mechanical complexity is there to facilitate that, via ease of operation and resetability.

i’m actually curious what they think the third color is, cause, at least where i am, grocery stores almost always have green, red, yellow, and orange.

if we assume the bottom right corner is a right angle and is the center of the arc, then it is solvable in the manners that others here have already described. if either of those is not the case, and the image itself doesn’t state, then there is insufficient information to solve it.

when i got ghosted by my job, i wish i’d started looking for a new one sooner, before burning through so much of my savings.
