over the long haul, you can see we don't live on a globe just by looking at the horizon

2018-10-06 18:47:42 UTC  

Wait... So you admit hills aren't flat so is it possible you don't know

2018-10-06 18:47:52 UTC  

Hills are hills

2018-10-06 18:48:06 UTC  

To be fair, curved terrain doesn't actually contradict the claims of flat-earthers, it only contradicts @Human Sheeple's

2018-10-06 18:48:07 UTC  

if you lived on a globe, and this is testable, you would notice it falling away, not rising to eye level

2018-10-06 18:48:45 UTC  

But the earth is flat therefore hills can't be flat. If you say a flat floor contradicts globe earth them a round hill must contradict a flat earth. It's the same logic

2018-10-06 18:48:49 UTC  

horizon doesn't rise to eye level

2018-10-06 18:48:53 UTC  

Why aren't frozen lakes conforming to a sphere 40,070km in circumference, 6,370km in radius? If Earth is a sphere of those dimensions we should be able to derive curvature which is approximately 8cm per km squared, it isn't there.

2018-10-06 18:48:56 UTC  

🤦

2018-10-06 18:49:00 UTC  

the horizen wouldn't be flat like that so far out too; after like a few hundered miles you'd clearly see a warping curve

2018-10-06 18:49:02 UTC  

if any of you are gamers, if you ever played in a game that tried to emulate the sphere we supposedly lived on, you would realize quickly that it doesn't represent our reality

2018-10-06 18:49:09 UTC  

we don't live on a sphere, gaming shows this

2018-10-06 18:49:12 UTC  

skyrim is flat

2018-10-06 18:49:15 UTC  

KSP?

2018-10-06 18:49:17 UTC  

therefore, earth is flat

Kevin do you know how video games work

2018-10-06 18:49:32 UTC  

There are more reasons then that but ok

2018-10-06 18:49:46 UTC  

3 KSP Flat Earth Proofs:
1. LOST THE TECHNOLOGY..... Even without super heavy lift capability it is possible to create a modularly assembled star ship for relatively low cost using existing technology. This could take man to the moon and beyond WHY HASN'T ANYONE DONE IT?
2. 2ND LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS..... Fly at a circular orbit of 70,000m and notice you can orbit infinitely. Fly at a circular orbit of 69,999m and watch yourself spiral into the ground. How is gas next to no gas possible?
3. STRAIGHT AND LEVEL FLIGHT..... Build an SSTO, fly at the horizon and watch the artificial horizon slowly get lower and lower as you fly off at a tangent, notice how real aircraft don't do this and wonder how straight and level flight is possible on a globe earth.3 KSP Flat

@ShadyMasterJ I agree—I think it's just that the more, and I do regret the choice of term, sophisticated flat-earthers essentially argue there's a bump-map of sorts on a round yet horizontal and non-globular Earth.

2018-10-06 18:50:02 UTC  

I know how 3D modeling works and I bought space engineers when it was being made

2018-10-06 18:50:14 UTC  

they tried to make planets and it was sad and pathetic in their early attempts

2018-10-06 18:50:24 UTC  

too round

2018-10-06 18:50:31 UTC  

Human Sheeple quit gish galloping

2018-10-06 18:50:33 UTC  

they were trying to put us on a ball

2018-10-06 18:50:50 UTC  

Sad!

2018-10-06 18:51:06 UTC  

too much of a ball, that isn't reality

2018-10-06 18:51:12 UTC  

You can go outside and try and see the curve with unbiased on for once Shady

2018-10-06 18:51:17 UTC  

You won't find what you are looking for

2018-10-06 18:51:23 UTC  

They have simulations of globes that work far better than a flat one. I could create one in a unity engine

3D engines don't represent reality because over long distances light bends an enormous amount

2018-10-06 18:51:47 UTC  

Too much of a ball, that isn't GOD

2018-10-06 18:52:23 UTC  

oh look

2018-10-06 18:52:29 UTC  

horizon doesnt rise to eye level

2018-10-06 18:52:42 UTC  

@Hugh Ignore the lift bending the wing up ha ha

2018-10-06 18:52:50 UTC  

human eyes are circular in nature and most people have two of them

2018-10-06 18:52:54 UTC  

Hugh, that's just an optical illusion created by fish eye lenses c'mon

2018-10-06 18:52:58 UTC  

We all know that!
