Anarchimedes (circa 1618) extracting computational energy from peasants.
March 16, 2020: Evidence emerges that rogue mathematician and alleged time-traveler Anarchimedes is constructing a LEGO-powered doomsday weapon.

Anarchimedes is a rogue mathematician, unlicensed transdimensional corporation, and alleged supervillain.

Anarchimedes has long history of planning, organizing, and committing crimes against mathematical constants, mainly shape theft.

He is particularly notorious for planning and implementing crimes against eclipses, both solar and lunar.

Give me enough Lego pieces and a place to stand (probably somewhere in the Oort cloud), and I will move the earth.
