ttfn, have fun with each other 🙂

2019-10-30 11:31:43 UTC  

there is no definitive change that tells you when an altitude should be called space

2019-10-30 11:31:48 UTC  

its a continious change

2019-10-30 11:32:09 UTC  

so where space begins is arbitrary

2019-10-30 11:32:28 UTC  

how big a rock has to be to be a boulder is arbitrary

2019-10-30 11:32:50 UTC  

62 miles is an arbitrary choice

"its arbitray therefore it dosnt exist"

2019-10-30 11:35:18 UTC  

our inability to define what point something begins dosnt mean it dosnt exist or its nonsense

2019-10-30 11:35:50 UTC  

the deffinition of a meter is arbitrary

2019-10-30 11:36:00 UTC  

the deffinition of a second is arbitrary

2019-10-30 11:36:46 UTC  

the deffinition of a pound is arbirary

2019-10-30 11:37:10 UTC  

arbitrary dosnt mean vague or subjective

2019-10-30 11:41:03 UTC  

at what point does a swamp become a desert

2019-10-30 11:44:50 UTC  

it certainly doesn't

2019-10-30 11:45:54 UTC  

But at least use arbitrary measurements that you can easily work with and is easily converted, unlike the imperial system

2019-10-30 11:50:04 UTC  

space is just a different type of environment
like swamp vs desert

how dry and hot does a desert have to be to be called a desert

2019-10-30 12:28:38 UTC  

Deserts generally receive less than 250 mm (10 in) of precipitation each year. -https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desert

2019-10-30 12:28:51 UTC  

as for temperature, it doesn't really matter

2019-10-30 12:29:20 UTC  

Antartica is a desert just like the Sahara, it's just that one of them is extremely hot and dry while the other is cold and dry

2019-10-30 12:34:17 UTC  

they have to draw a line somewhere

2019-10-30 12:34:53 UTC  

so yes, that 250mm is arbitrary but it's still where they draw that line

2019-10-30 12:37:22 UTC  

as for those other definitions, yes, they are arbitrary. However, they work and are the best we have. You can't really have a definition there that isn't arbitrary.

hey

"look at all these globeheads reassuring eachother on there religion"

2019-10-30 16:20:48 UTC  

u think GE is a religion?

2019-10-30 16:21:01 UTC  

guess its a valid assumtion from FE pov

2019-10-30 16:21:23 UTC  

notice I put quote marks

2019-10-30 16:21:34 UTC  

truther

2019-10-30 16:21:36 UTC  

😛

2019-10-30 16:21:47 UTC  

i somewhat view that as negative

2019-10-30 16:22:09 UTC  

but its meaning being a sceptic here right?

2019-10-30 16:23:29 UTC  

they never give a consisnent deffinition

2019-10-30 16:24:03 UTC  

the most common usage I've seen is one that values truth

2019-10-30 16:24:18 UTC  

so I use it because that's the deffinition they gave

2019-10-30 16:24:47 UTC  

then they get mad that I use the lable

2019-10-30 16:25:35 UTC  

annother deffinition I've seen is simply someone who values truth and believes conspiracy theories

2019-10-30 16:26:08 UTC  

Wich is odd because those 2 are unrelated so it's wierd

2019-10-30 16:27:28 UTC  

not really
