you were talking about video games, now it's "3d space in computers"?

Video games are made in a pure x,y,z coordinate mapping model because it makes coding them significantly easier and it doesnt effect gameplay in any video game. For example: why would the Madden programmers add a quart of an inch of curve to the football field? it would make programming coordinates that much more difficult, and would serve zero purpose.

now if you're talking about drawing a sphere the size of the earth then zooming into the surface with your view and testing to see if objects of different sizes disappear over the horizon Leevee is of course correct.


Of course neither you or Levee are correct - you provided no source for your biased blind opinions.

And actually demonstrable with something like Google Earth VR. I have an Oculus Rift at home, and it's trivial to demonstrate how the horizon works on a spherical earth as you move closer or further away from the ground.
Of course anyone who actually wanted to see this could go to their local VR arcade and see it for themselves for a few bucks, but let's be honest here - if there was irrefutable proof of a spherical earth directly behind card's back and all he needed to do was turn around to see it, he would stay firmly glued to the monitor and the keyboard, claiming that the proof doesn't exist.

why would i provide you with a picture when your next step is to just say "that picture is altered" then when i make a video you say "that video is altered" then when i show it's not you'll say "that whole program is altered"? I provided you with a source YOU can use, so that YOU can't claim I am altering anything. ANY 3d drafting software, some are even freeware, and have youtube tutorials to walk you through drawing a sphere and setting your viewports.

yet you'll still ask for a picture, and call me the lazy one, because:

first that flight is advertising but it rarely flies, flight are 2-3 transfers usually, it takes 5 hours longer to fly one way than it does the other, i didn't make up jet streams - look it up, it seems your limited to do 3 seconds of research to think you understand something when you clearly dont.

Commercial Planes flying with no passengers - doubt that would ever happen bu plane do not fly whichever flight route they choose - air space and paths are controlled - why dont you research into who controls it - think your in for a shock.


Oh well since it rarely flies that of course is a really good point.

Hey guys, we have a flight here that proves the earth isn't flat! This flight couldn't possibly work on a flat earth! Oh... but... it only flies 5 times a week. Sorry, my bad, I guess nothing to see here after all. If only it flew more often, then it would mean something. If any person can buy a ticket and conclusively disprove the flat earth only 5 times a week, then are we really disproving it at all?

you cant provide a source for your claims cause you know you are wrong. No source = blatant liar.

your point is trivial, explain the horizon

i provided a source, any 3d drafting program. the one i'm personally using is Inventor. Perhaps a starter program would be better for you such as Solid Edge though if you have no 3d drafting experience.

Believe it or not there are other sources then youtube and articles. Source simply means where someone got information from, i got the information from pure observation of a 3d drafting program. You can too.

So if something is advertised on the internet - that proves the flight actually exists?
so if the flight flies 5 times a week - why did you post flight times in March and April

uses a youtube video as "proof"

claims anything on the internet can be faked

So you cant replicate or show your supposed curve on a 3d drafting program

You are off to a good start sir, but you have a long way to go. If you're anything like me, you will have a very long list of questions regarding the FE theory/concept.....write them all down and research each one individually.
It will require long hours and much patience to find the answers. There is deliberate false information designed to confuse and dissuade people who search FE using google search engine ( and it is recommended to ignore the first 5-10 pages of all search results)
Good luck on your truth journey sir, and post questions or pm me if u get stuck or need some info.

Thanks you for your kind words, indeed a long way to go ( just digging into this stuff :lol: )

Could you confirm that the map below is somehow correct, else could you point me out for a more representative one ?

Now wondering what if someone want to travel from A to B ... - https://i.imgur.com/wxWddvm.gif

and find out that the shorten path is going through the Antarctica ?

The flight from A to B cannot be accomplished by any existing aircraft on a flat earth. If the earth really is flat, then no commercial jet can fly fast enough or carry enough fuel for that journey.
You can buy the ticket here: https://www.farecompare.com/flights/Santiago-SCL/Sydney-SYD/market.html#quote?quoteKey=CSCLCSYD20180102R20180109P1CTF

Well, it was about the shorter path, not taking into account the means ~ ( just theoretical for now & details later :) )

No need tickets thanks :P

bad pic, bad understanding

sounds like you read some troll page

bad research, try again

harsh but i'll take it :blink:
