ttfn, have fun with each other 🙂
there is no definitive change that tells you when an altitude should be called space
its a continious change
so where space begins is arbitrary
how big a rock has to be to be a boulder is arbitrary
62 miles is an arbitrary choice

"its arbitray therefore it dosnt exist"
<:lul:484994724118134784>
our inability to define what point something begins dosnt mean it dosnt exist or its nonsense
the deffinition of a meter is arbitrary
the deffinition of a second is arbitrary
the deffinition of a pound is arbirary
arbitrary dosnt mean vague or subjective
at what point does a swamp become a desert
it certainly doesn't
But at least use arbitrary measurements that you can easily work with and is easily converted, unlike the imperial system
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
Deserts generally receive less than 250 mm (10 in) of precipitation each year. -https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desert
as for temperature, it doesn't really matter
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
they have to draw a line somewhere
so yes, that 250mm is arbitrary but it's still where they draw that line
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"
u think GE is a religion?
guess its a valid assumtion from FE pov
notice I put quote marks
truther
😛
i somewhat view that as negative
but its meaning being a sceptic here right?
they never give a consisnent deffinition
the most common usage I've seen is one that values truth
so I use it because that's the deffinition they gave
then they get mad that I use the lable
annother deffinition I've seen is simply someone who values truth and believes conspiracy theories
Wich is odd because those 2 are unrelated so it's wierd
not really
