Yes. Writing with a pen on paper in school at all will become a thing of the past for the 'developed world' by year 2032.

There is no reason to order them alphabetically other than to appease OCD members. Ordering them by activity is much more practical; fact. Don't even deny.

What you are saying is, however, not true. The Sun is indeed slightly 'lower in the sky' when in a plane than when on a Ground. I would like to see where you get the idea that it appears exactly the same height and size from plane-height to ground.

@Nemiroff
It's not true. What you are describing is to do with perception. The reason for your dilemma is the same reason as why we can't see across the world to a mountain that's higher than everything else. There is a maximum range of vision, not even to do with eyesight but refraction of light itself across distances. It makes things appear to go 'down' the further we look no matter what height we're at and no matter how long-sighted our eyes are. A 'horizon' occurs over flat surfaces if you would walk back far enough.

@Nemiroff
Firstly please explain what you mean by 'in a plane it's just as high' and what you think you'd be able to see in a flat Earth instead. Do you know that over long distance things distort to make everything appear like it falls into the ground? In other words, over a maximum distance curving 'down' and horizon happens no matter what? I can show you a video with tennis balls if you want to see the effect at work in shorter distance (worked because it was a very sunny day allowing a mirage to form closer thant he entire distance it takes to perceive a horizon).

Flat Earth...

@Nemiroff
When the moon isn't lit by the sun it doesn't even mean the Earth is entirely covering it in any significant 180 degree line. It could just as easily be tilted 'this' or 'that' way as long as the Sun isn't directly shining on it, that's common in Round Earth scenario and wouldn't be significant. It's only significant if it's a flat Earth scenario, because it means the rotations are unusually completely out of range of one another.

@Nemiroff
Actually they do not make sense. "Lunar Eclipse" shouldn't even be a thing at all, it is just the moon not being lit up by the sun right? Now, for a second, I'd like you to consider an eclipse that happened: https://www.space.com/13856-total-lunar-eclipse-rare-senelion.html

That is from a biased source pro-NASA on everything and even it struggles to come up with bullshit to justify the eclipse where the sun and moon were in sky at same time (and at the very least were blatantly not in the way of one another).

You see, what you are seeing in an eclipse is completely possible in a flat Earth, because indeed the moon is slightly closer to us than the sun, they are more likely to be discs than spheres though, due to how they are shaped and as we only see one side ever of the moon (impossible to tell what 'side of the sun' we're seeing). They rotate by magnetism, something I can't fully explain, but it rotates around the North Star. Outside of the sky is still indeed something where being 'pulled down' is reduced but it's not mass-based gravity at all.

You had vulgar in-depth death threats and 'kys' sort of encouragement and tone from Ramshutu to Oromagi. It wasn't funny in the slightest. Parents read it and think 'shall I let my child use this debate website'.

I know, I have rap battles where some death threat me too, let's delete them and clean the site up, I agree thanks.

We’re having a discussion about your toxic behaviour, repeated call outs, the fact that you never justify any of your accusations and really just shrivel away when given the opportunity.

Basically, in case you still don't fully believe/understand it, you click 'preview' then don't publish it. It's then saved to your account, not even your browser cache, as far as I am aware.

Did it ever occur to you that the only reason you think you're 'winning' this is because a user named 3RU7AL who knows next to nothing of the DART-subforum politics decided to show up and is rallying behind you? Everyone else, while not upvoting me, shows up at times like the DART Hall-of-Fame voting and at other times to make you realise that you have support when the limelight shines, but I have support when lights go dark.

if you wish people to stop being critical of you, then you should stop acting in an overtly belligerent way that invites so much criticism. I can’t make your feelings not be hurt by me being overtly critical of your content; but the appropriate way to avert your feelings being hurt is either to adjust the content.

Imagine if MLK, Nelson Mandela, Rosa Parks, Gandhi, LGBT activists and so many others thought this way. What a fucking world we'd be living in eh?


Just conform, people are criticising you for your behaviour that annoys them, shut up and stop doing it.

 I will intentionally be vague, because everything I say you will hypocritically portray as an 'attack on you' whereas your profile pic choices and active leading of gang bullying of me in the forums were legit abuse that would have psychologically broken a weaker individual.

Again. Another personal attack,  unsubstantiated accusations and falsehoods.

You’re not justifying your position, your not providing any detail; you are just doing what is called “poisoning the well”. Your not making your case, just saying bad things about the opposing party. Nothing you have said is true; and I will happily refer you to any of the threads or debates where the above were discussed - and you failed to defend your claims.

@Discipulus_Didicit
It's easy to manipulate a victim to bargain for less, accept their situation and submit to your will over time like a masochistic cuck that you ruthlessly overpower. That doesn't make it right as such, just pragmatic because they'll probably even betray, hurt and kill someone trying to save them from you due to stockholm syndrome etc.
