    @stefano Reading ability on some platforms is worrying. At the top of that post it says 10 min read. Whole 10 min worth of words. And there're no "Summarize it with ${MODEL_NAME} buttons". How are you supposed to read it? :)

    LEGO Machine Plays Tic-Tac-Toe Without ElectronicsTic-Tac-Toe is a relatively simple game, and one of the few which has effectively been solved for perfect play. The nature of the game made it possible for [Joost van Velzen] to create a LEGO machine that can play the game properly in an entirely mechanical fashion.The build features no electronics to speak of. Instead, it uses 52 mechanical logic gates and 204 bits of mechanical memory to understand and process the game state and respond with appropriate moves in turn. There are some limitations to the build, however—the game state always begins with the machine taking the center square. Furthermore, the initial move must always be played on one of two squares—given the nature of the game though, this doesn’t really make a difference.It’s also worth heading over to the Flickr page for the project just to appreciate the aesthetics of the build. It’s styled in the fashion of an 18th-century automaton or similar. It’s also been shared on LEGO Ideas where it’s raised quite a profile.If you’ve ever wanted to think about computing in a mechanical sense, this build is a great example of how it can be done. We often see some fun LEGO machines around these parts, from massive parts sorters to somewhat-functional typewriters.youtube.com/embed/soklpa_JZOI?…hackaday.com/2026/03/16/lego-m…

    @evan thanks so much! I tried to replace the generic document symbol with a better card, but it still needs some tweaks. I also got no notification about your comment. And replies are out of order, which I'm trying to figure out if that's how it needs to work or if it can be improved. There's some work to do, but I appreciate the support!
