Quarter order-6 square tiling
In geometry, the quarter order-6 square tiling is a uniform tiling of the hyperbolic plane. It has Schläfli symbol of q{4,6}. It is constructed from *3232 orbifold notation, and can be seen as a half symmetry of *443 and *662, and quarter symmetry of *642.

gollark: There are plenty of applications where you can get away with "looks pretty much okay", too.
gollark: Well, you can ask people to not put irrelevant random images in, but they'll probably do it for some stupid reason, and it's good if they can at least be mildly more efficient about it.
gollark: There's JPEG-XL or something, which will apparently allow *lossless* higher-efficiency representation of existing JPEGs. Very exciting.
gollark: Consider all those annoying mostly irrelevant images in articles. Those don't really need to actually be very high quality, and if you can lossily compress them to 20KB or so you can really shave off loading times.
gollark: Although vector graphics would often be nicer, they're not always practical.
