Hey guys

New to this server

Looking for serious but relaxed debates

Anything

Is this channel dedicated to the voice?

Alright i will get this out of the way then. Hello I'm a glober.

How do I block a user from my phone app?

Yes

Thanks

I dont believe the earth was made in 6 days

I tend to believe Adam and Eve were at least 100,000 years ago.

I think the Bible is a book of everything.

A book of books

I dont believe Trump is any Bible figure.

I think Trump is simply an answer to prayer and an act of mercy from God.

People who get caught up in prophecy are in danger of the warnings given by Jesus in Matthew 24.

By the way, I cant select a main role because I cant relate to any of the options.

Hello

Interesting questions of the day.

I am pleased with most of the responses.

I think naziism was the result of hitlers obsession with the occult world as he believed he was dealing with alien powers that would grant him superior power.

My social security number is...

Birds can fly for the same reason helicopters and airplanes can fly. Work is performed to push down on air with a force greater than equal to its own weight.

You ever stood under the moving blades of a helicopter?

I have stood under the moving blades of a helicopter shortly before take-off.

Feel the wind being pushed down.

it was a medivac helicopter

gravity results in the helicopter having weight

the helicopter just needs to push down on air with a force greater than its own weight to take off.

When you're standing on a moving airplane around a constant 600 mph, do you feel 600 mph wind? And if you jump on the airplane, how come you land at the same spot?

I mean you land at the same spot relative to the airplane.

You and the air around you is moving with the surface of the earth at 1000 mph (at the equator), so if you were to jump, you will land at the same spot relative to the ground.

And yes, the helicopter is moving with the surface of the Earth (there is still drift as helicopters can't remain perfectly still)

some helicopters (if not all) have computers to keep making small adjustments to keep the helicopter hovering stable

but if Oak is not providing evidence either, how does he win?

then let me scroll up to find it

You want me to record a video of myself jumping?

and make some smoke so you can visualize the air too?

What really matters is the airplane speed relative to the air around it.

First, am I able to post pictures?

An airplane parked on the ground is still moving with the ground.

even if the ground is moving 1 nanometer per year, they're still moving together.

move a bottle of water, does the water inside the bottle move with it?

When you're sitting in a moving car, don't you move with it?

it's the same concept

it does not even matter if the Earth is moving or not

Only the relative speed matters. And as far as how much the rotation of the Earth matters only affects centripetal acceleration (or if you want to say, centrifugal). And even at 1000 mph at the equator, the resulting centripetal acceleration is insignificant compared to the rate that things fall.

The bumps you feel while driving down the road have more acceleration with them than the centripetal acceleration of Earth's rotation. At the 'accepted' speed of Earth's rotation, it's just not significant enough. Also, the rotation of Earth doesn't have anything to do with gravity.

As far as I know.

The 'core' claim I'm making is that *it does not matter if the Earth is rotating at all*, unless the Earth is rotating rapid enough for the resulting centripetal acceleration to be comparable to the acceleration of gravity.

it's not the 1000 mph that matters

1000 mph is not acceleration

a = v^2 / r, where a is centripetal acceleration, v is tangential speed, and r is radius (or distance from center of rotation)

convert 1000 mph to feet per second

and plug in the radius of the earth in feet, and you get the centripetal acceleration in feet per second per second

sorry, made some mistakes (corrected)

you mean a satellite?

For us who can't afford to send a probe up "into" outer space, we're just suckers left to choose to believe or not believe that NASA and other agencies have sent up probes.

I do believe that gravity is a real phenomenon. I do believe that Newtonian equations we learned in school are good approximations describing the behavior of matter under the influence of gravity. I do NOT believe that any of your teachers in school or the scientists that publish articles have any accurate idea of *what* gravity is *why* it is.

And with my last statement, anyone that gives you some simple explanation of gravity as if he understands it, is lying.

Prove the firmament exists

You ever take a trip on an elevator to the top of a tall building? What happens to your ears and why?

Your ears pop yes? because the atmospheric pressure is lower at a higher altitude.

If you keep going up and up, the pressure keeps decaying towards zero. And once the pressure is close enough to zero, it can be considered a vacuum (not a true vacuum), and by then you're practically already in 'outer space'.

And so, going up in an elevator to the top of a tall building already proves that you don't need a "firmament" to contain the atmosphere.

Decaying pressure as a function of altitude proves you don't need a firmament, and also logically predicts that if you keep going up, you will reach 'outer space' without ever needing to hit a firmament.

Newtonian mechanics works well for speeds much less than the speed of light

Newtonian mechanics loses accuracy as you deal with speeds comparable to the speed of light.

And so, equations or models serve as approximations.

And there are boundaries where one model or equation loses its accuracy and another model or equation takes over.

And so some equations are just good approximations that only work within certain boundaries

The only theoretically-true black body is a black hole.

So, black body calculations make good approximations

but haha, sorry I mentioned black hole, because black holes are contradictions to them being black bodies

black holes are true black bodies in the sense they absorb 100% of the light coming in

but they are contradictions to black bodies because they do not radiate light

honestly, I don't think any scientists truly understands black holes even if they were real

they say the light from a black hole comes from the matter around the black hole, not the black hole itself

my point was, some equations give exact calculations while other equations are just good approximations

Admiral Byrd went to the south pole while he claimed he went to the north pole. It was intentional disinformation to mislead foreign powers. His mission to the south pole was supposed to be covert.

@🎃Oakheart🎃 I was under the impression that Byrd was hunting for german U-boats that purportedly found an entrance under the ice

I think the fear was that the Nazi's had possibly built an underwater base under the ice

I don't really know

I do have an old video if a fleet taking a trip to antarctica

and a flight that finds dry land with warm water in the middle of nowhere in antarctica

@oƃǝW I think it's the interpretations of quantum mechanics that's nonsensical science

If you want my personal theory on what I think the universe really is....

like a crack in a piece of glass, the universe is a crack in absolute-nothingness

@oƃǝW I think quantum mechanics makes perfect sense when you are able to model all particles as waves that are always at the speed of light, but in 4 or more dimensions.

And when you are able to break down the wave fronts into their component 'intersection' waves which are each faster than the speed of light.

for me, there's nothing really strange about quantum mechanics

it's how people interpret quantum mechanics thats very strange

@ShyGuyfromUpHigh not if you break it down into waves

a "particle" is the sum of an infinite number of waves

Hey, that FLAT horizon looks pretty curved to me

do 'who' understand 'what'?

Have you ever heard of the Fourier Series?
