The Tauglboden Formation is a geologic formation in Tirol, Austria. It preserves fossils dating back to the Oxfordian stage of the Jurassic period. The radiolarites were deposited in a deep marine environment.

gollark: Lines can be highly diagonal. I'll retrieve the visualization.
gollark: 4^4.
gollark: So it's tic-tac-toe, but generalized to 4 dimensions.
gollark: The minimax thing I ported from 3DTTT is unusably slow because combinatorial explosion.
gollark: Well, I need an algorithm for AI in 4DTTT.
