1. Thanks to this community, I can post here again...🙂

  2. Didn't you used to claim you were not a flat earther (back when using the Ivanhoe account), merely a globe sceptic, or maybe a geocentrist, or whatever. Have things evolved?

  3. This is a great question for

  4. OP may want to come up with a different hypothetical than a meteor impact though. Flat earthers in general didn't believe in meteors (because space is fake) and struggle with the concept of entertaining hypothetical in general. In response to an OP like this one most flerfs would just get angry and not answer the underlying question

  5. Imagine how much faster science would progress under a flat-earther methodology.

  6. That works of the number of people doing the science is limited to 1. However when you have multiple people coming up with mutually contradictory crazy ideas, and then all anyone does is look at the mutually contradictory ideas and say "hmm, that's interesting. Something to think about", things don't progress very far. That is how the modern flat earth movement seems to operate.

  7. Empathizing with Dawn is not what goes on around these parts. We didn't take kindly to folks who empathize with Dawn around here. Now you gunna go ahead and find Dawn annoying and complain about her or we might start to have a problem by gum. You hear?

  8. the dinosaurs are probably on the other side of the earth thats what the government is hiding

  9. I thought all dinosaur fossils were fake, or possibly really dragons. Because dinosaurs are fake, but dragons are real. Or something.

  10. No evidence? What do you mean? This is The Simplest Irrefutable Flat Earth Proof.

  11. What can I tell you .... Glenn is most definitely not a fool.

  12. Okay that makes sense, I guess I misunderstood what they were asking. I thought they just wanted to see the curvature, not the whole damn globe, that would be crazy.

  13. Flat earthers, in general, don't know anything about rockets, orbits, satellites, geometry, optics or cameras. This makes it very hard for them to articulate exactly what they are looking for in a way that can be understood or makes logical sense. Even if they were honestly trying to stipulate their request (which in most cases is not likely to be what's going on) the average normal person would struggle to follow.

  14. Sunlight can only travel so far before it gets tired. And also there is a shape-shifing lampshade controlling where the sun shines on to. And also you're not properly taking the laws of perspective into account. And also there are atmospheric lensing effects to consider. And also you can only see things within your personal dome - this includes the sun.

  15. So what you're saying is you want to substantially increase NASA's annual budget?

  16. Insert classic segment of Nathan Oakley struggling to convert metres into kilometres:

  17. If workshop assets are properly labeled as growable assets, for example Residential Low, on the workshop then the default behaviour is that they will spawn randomly on the corresponding zoning squares along with the vanilla assets. So if you subscribe to enough growable assets these can replace the vanilla buildings and you could conceivably skip all of them.

  18. It's so ridiculous that they expect us to believe their theory that the earth is a spinning large formal gathering for social dancing.

  19. The flat earth model predicts that NASA LIES and that you should be ANGRY about it.

  20. I know, I put this up so people can see how people will believe anything you tell them, some people. How do you become an adult in 2024 and think that is a camera zooming into earth, it looks terrible.

  21. Exactly. It looks terrible. So therefore the earth is flat.

  22. Are people who don't think flat earthers are real even real, or do people just make posts asking that question as a joke to waste everyone's time?

  23. I was introduced to this sub like a week ago, and I'm still not sure if it's satire with trolls, satire with actual flat earthers, or a real sub for flat earthers, and just has people who come in to argue with them

  24. The earth is flat and stationary by default 🙂

  25. "Maths is just NASA conditioning! 1+1 can be anything you want it to be! Just flerf harder!"

  26. You're trying to out-dumb the flat earther. But the flat earther has got you covered.

  27. Simultanaety of events at different locations is not preserved across observers in different reference frames. Neither observation is more "right" or more "real" than the other.

  28. So what happens when the person in the train presents his clocks that have stopped at the same exact time, to the photographer that has a photograph of the same clocks? The one on the left showing a time that is in the future of the two physical clocks that are paused. The other clock on the right will be showing a pastime relative to the two paused clocks.

  29. You have required me to think about this for a minute - special relativity is not intuitive (but that doesn't mean we can just dismiss the experimental evidence for it). I am no relativity scholar but this is what I think you are missing...

  30. You could probably play around with Building Spawn Points to deal with this issue, by moving the garbage collection point to another street.
