Nope
This one only has like 3k apparently
"only"
Yea
Try accidentally pissing off 27k
Its not great
just say globe
Eh
They all wanted me to prove one of their most beloved experiments wrong by a supposed 'PhD'
They have a phd and were fe
how can u get a PhD in fe
You talking about Dr. John D?
?
@AstralSentient yea that guy
oof
Spamming the living hecc out of me
What argument did you disprove?
Dr. John D isn't FE btw
The perth lake one or whatever
He disapproves standard refraction models because he thinks they are pseudoscience
...
.......................
oh dear
h
Speaking of that, I should watch through his videos, was gonna do that awhile back
He had this dispute with Mick West, made numerous vids on it
Thats legit part of fe
Ffs
Dont even get me started on refraction jesus christ
Pi
Oi
how can they disprove refraction
what is there explanation for it o-0
Well ive learned pretty much everything about it
Not disprove, just point out that isn't currently valid based on how it is a reification, like the 7/6R rule of thumb. Note that it isn't the same as snell's law, supposedly, 'isotopic media' is an invalid description for the atmosphere so there is a concept of "atmospheric refraction"
Anyways, the explanation given is that the local surface is flat if you are talking about the laser test
Well yea... Snells law says that through each medium entered by a light wave there is a angle of refraction based on the medium index of refraction x sin(θ{i,r}) and the sin of the angle of the incident ray when entered
well they say that when u watch boats go over the curve that is exactly what it is boats going over the curve. they say its impossible for it to be perspective or refraction or angular resolution. whenever we see a city skyline at the horizon that we shouldnt be able to see becuase its too far its an illusion but the boats is not an illusion thats really whats happenning.
all the mountains and cities u can see too far that appear perfectly displayed for u at the horizon thats an illusion and not real the boats going over the curve is real
