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

smashed



claims he saw something on a computer

cant reproduce it or show it

lol

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.


if you wont accept a satellite image as "proof" why would you accept a simple photo that could be altered much easier as "proof"?

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

:rofl:

no i use irl 3d perspective - you're equating that to an opengl computer 2d projection - so a false equivalency to equate your 2d understanding with 2d on a computer

Ships dont disappear beyond the horizon, if you still believe they do you're either just trolling or not very smart

Video games cant be based on assumed curvature because there is no curvature IRL and computers cant be taught to think stupid like humans can.

You also dodged my question, keep dodging



yes it called Jet steams

nothing you said in that post made any sense

like x y z having to do with physics

:wacko:


You are trying really, really hard to avoid discussing actual arguments. You've now pulled in games (red herring), pretended that ships do not disappear behind the horizon (probably being pedantic about words, aka a strawman and a red herring) while calling me an idiot (ad hominem), and pretended not to use the "perspectives planes" argument (backpedalling).

Each and every thing you said was another logical fallacy, attempting to steer the conversation away from actual logic.

Congratulations on showing that you have no proof.

your point is trivial, explain the horizon

dont dodge

Look at a ball. Any ball. Can you see the entire surface area of it all at once? No. The edge of the area you CAN see is the horizon. This experiment takes literally seconds. Literally, actually, seconds.

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 ?




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

No need tickets thanks :P


Well FE'ers are not map makers - you should look into who controls maps

The Ae Equidistance Projection is the model that is most popular but there are other that use a square map or the Peirce quincuncial projection

also planes are not allowed to fly over the North pole or over the South pole - should tell you somethings up

courts won't accept satellite images as proof of land claims - i just asked you to describe or show your ideas of why we see the horizon with some examples - i know you cant because it would show how silly you are

So you think the horizon is due to curve, that you travel up to the horizon and then down over the curve

omfg - thats for proving you have the iq of a DODO bird.

i did describe them, then u asked for a source that proves it, then i told you a source, now you're asking me to describe them again.

you're not dodging, you're running around in a circle. but its a lot easier to shoot at someone with a known vector, so ty.

why do you keep saying "up" and "down" when all points of a sphere are equal distance from it's center?
