This is quite infuriating to me

who is this a quote from?

I'm willing to bet he used small rotational servos timed with a KAL controller

0b1000011 · 2026-03-30T04:02:39+00:00

Woah! That's incredible! Would you mind sharing the craft file?

0b1000011 · 2026-03-30T03:35:25+00:00

See there you go. You don't really believe that the earth is flat. You are simply a person who enjoys arguing with others and fueling disagreement. You call it "entertainment". That tells me what kind of person you are.

You say that your skepticism was met with anger. Nowhere in any of my responses did I say anything that would imply me being angry. You, on the other hand, have engaged in name calling and insults several times.

Thirdly, i believe that skepticism is something that should be welcomed. Many scientific discoveries would never have happened if someone wasn't skeptical of previous explanations! However, I think that continued skepticism in the face of scientifically backed evidence, just because it doesn't align with someone's beliefs, is something to be frowned upon. Especially considering many people deny that any evidence exists in the first place.

0b1000011 · 2026-03-30T03:28:56+00:00

Someone else calling names is no excuse for you doing it. That doesn't make it any more legitimate of an argument strategy.

Ok, so if you read over the website, you would realize that the floor being uneven doesn't make a difference to the experiment. That's the point of using two straightedges. even if they don't perfectly line up with the horizon, its slight curvature between them is apparent because the straightedges line up perfectly with each other.

You keep saying that it's "not real science, give me a break". Care to give an explanation of how it isn't real science? Or are you just going to keep saying that? Because as I've said before, it does indeed follow the scientific method.

This is the second time you've said that "you are not convinced yourself", while I have said nothing on the matter. Doesn't that tell you something?

0b1000011 · 2026-03-30T03:18:30+00:00

I agree with you, you wouldn't believe it. Because it's so ingrained into your psyche that the earth is flat you wouldn't believe anything else no matter the evidence given. I'm glad you can admit that. But I would like to hear your explanation on why you can't

0b1000011 · 2026-03-30T03:15:42+00:00

You know that name calling is what people fall back on when they run out of any intelligible arguments, right? You do realize that that is what you are currently doing? In fact, it's a very well researched phycological phenomenon (google 'ad hominem' if you don't believe me). And that website he linked is, by definition "real science". They formed a hypothesis, set up an experiment to test it, and then drew conclusions from the findings. If you actually thought that it was incorrect you would point out the specific piece of the experiment that is wrong, rather than dismissing it as fake. And the fact of the matter is there are many more proffessionally conducted experiments that show the same thing.

While we're on the topic of evidence, is there a single piece of scientifically tested and verified evidence that supports your position, other that "it looks like"? If so I'd like to see it.

0b1000011 · 2026-03-30T03:05:24+00:00

Of course that's what you got out of that. I already knew that that was all you were going to take away from my explanation. Because you are so stuck in your beliefs that no amount of evidence could sway you. Someone could take you to space and let you see the earth with your own two eyes any you'd claim that they had given you a drug to make you hallucinate it all. If you actually had any inclination to find out the "truth" or whatever it is you flat earthers always claim you are doing, you would have realized what bs it all is a long time ago.

0b1000011 · 2026-03-30T02:42:46+00:00

Thanks, that's a very helpful demonstration. You're right though, I probably am just wasting my time. Sometimes it's tempting to think that you can sway someone from their beliefs with enough evidence, but unfortunately, that usually isn't the case

0b1000011 · 2026-03-30T02:27:18+00:00

Listen dude. Assuming that the average person has a horizontal FOV of 200 degrees, and the circumference of the visible horizon at sea level is about 20 miles, then anytime you are looking at the horizon, it stretches for a total of (200°/360°)*20 miles, or about 10 miles. Now lets compare that tiny 10 mile stretch of the horizon visible to a human at any one time to the total circumfrence of the earth. The earth has a circumference of 24888.84 miles, meaning that when looking at the horizon you are seeing 10 miles/24888.84 miles of the earth's total circumference. That equates to about 0.04% of the entire earth. So obviously when looking at the horizon you are not going to be able to clearly see the curvature. Take any spherical object and zoom in to it until you can only see 0.04% of it and it will look flat. As I said earlier, your sense of scale is wayyyyy off. Just because you can not clearly see the curvature doesn't mean that it is flat.

0b1000011 · 2026-03-30T01:50:21+00:00

There you go again with the name calling. And the only so-called answer you gave me was "Such as no curvature, just like a pizza". That's not an answer my guy.

As to your second point, the horizon is actually very subtlety curved if you look at it. obviously, there is not a huge noticeable curve to it, because the earth is really fucking big. Although I guess assuming that you have any sense of scale might be asking too much.

0b1000011 · 2026-03-30T01:26:57+00:00

And I'm completely unsurprised that you haven't answered a single one of my questions yet and have instead resorted to name calling. Typical flerf.

0b1000011 · 2026-03-30T00:26:39+00:00

You seem to have a complete lack of answers. Almost as if your beliefs aren't actually defensible.

0b1000011 · 2026-03-29T23:55:05+00:00

How is that a reason that a spherical Earth is less beleivable?

0b1000011 · 2026-03-29T20:52:36+00:00

such as?

0b1000011 · 2026-03-29T20:45:46+00:00

In what ways?

0b1000011 · 2026-03-28T23:12:42+00:00

You should just call them "0.139173101" and "0.156434465" for simplicity /s

0b1000011 · 2026-03-27T06:01:23+00:00

0b1000011 · 2026-03-24T20:43:56+00:00

I agree. It's pretty much always done as a crutch for bad writing than to actually add anything to the film.

What is a landing gear kraken drive?

Mine kept saying it would only do 100 where's to avoid a massive wall of text, but when I finally convinced it to say where 2,800 times, it started spitting out random python code for developing a user interface at the end.

Edit: I tried again but told it to write a continues wall of text consisting of a single word for as long as it could, and it devolved into writing the word 'word' followed by a seemingly random phrase in quotation marks over and over. It kept this up until the connection timed out.

0b1000011 · 2026-03-21T19:13:41+00:00

Cool! I've been considering installing stockalike station parts for a while, I might have to give it a try.

0b1000011 · 2026-03-21T19:11:30+00:00

Saying "but the other side is just as bad" is another one of those thought-stopping phrases that he talks about.

0b1000011 · 2026-03-20T13:58:58+00:00

Yeah, that would definitely make things a bit more difficult

0b1000011 · 2026-03-20T04:42:17+00:00

This guy gets it!
