@GhostGone420 Look at the very radiantly glowing part of the atmosphere on the bottom right part of the globe. If you’ve seen light before, you can generally guess there’s light behind it. I suppose the reason it’s so bright in this particular image is because of that “computer wizard” cop-out

How do you have a lit side of earth if they are flying to the moon and earth is between the sun and moon?

@FELibrary_ The thing is live feeds do exist, and I’m imagining that is one right there. The only issue is that space looks really different than ground level. On top of that, flat earthers are going to call pretty much anything from space “CGI,” so there’s no point in trying to convince you

@BrockRiddickIFB You are an absolute genius in the ways you can be stupid.
English

@BrockRiddickIFB I mean you might accidentally discover a new way to improve AI by doing what you’re doing, but I don’t think you’re actually testing the product for its intended purpose. I tend to think of you as a “competent idiot.” None of the results are intended, but brilliantly stupid.
English

This week i tested 8 of the leading AI LLMs in the world...
I pushed them hard to test them hard.
... not impressed.
They got their asses handed to them... on a silver platter.
I documented every step.
I will be updating my article.
ALL of their owners and creators will be included TOGETHER... to show them... that:
I know.

@BrockRiddickIFB Gravity is not an adhesive. It does not “stick.” It makes things accelerate in a particular direction, and sometimes when you’re going “sideways” fast enough, that speed balances out the acceleration.
English

@RogerLuce4 @DrunkIrish_62 @haprho You can have plenty of documents explaining how something works in theory, but actually getting it to work in practice is another thing entirely.
English

It's a documented technology, which was produced by multiple companies.
Can be reproduced if desired or needed and with enough money to engineer & small-lot produce new ones.
We stopped because there was no demand; it's not like a mysterious wizard was the only one who knew the secret & he died.
We can still produce vacuum-tubes if needed; we may have lost some of the details of high-end complex tubes, but we can produce basic ones with simple equipment & can get tricker with some engineering & trial & error research.
English

Aww, poor flerfs — flerfs say we lost the technology to go the moon.
We've also lost the technology to:
🔹️Build cathode-ray tube (CRT)
televisions and computer monitors.
🔹️VHS VCRs
🔹️Kodachrome slide film
🔹️Floppy disks
🔹️cassette tapes
🔹️high volumn vacuum tubes (also
called electron tubes or radio
tubes)
🔹️high volume incandescent light bulbs

@RogerLuce4 @DrunkIrish_62 @haprho True, but it’s a lot easier if you just have the processes just written down in the first place. My idea is more of an insurance policy for humanity
English

@jackhorner32 @DrunkIrish_62 @haprho None of us "average people" knew how to make a vcr even when they were being made at their peak. The people who matter know the principles involved, it isnt magic, they could easily be made again. It just requires investment, but there is no demand, so they aren't.
English

@benwehrman To Flat Earthers;
Stop asking for pictures of Earth from space if all pictures are “fake”
English

@DrunkIrish_62 @haprho Generally speaking. Not saying all of us would. But quite a few of us
English

@DrunkIrish_62 @haprho I can tell you right now if we remove a lot of modern technology from the picture and told modern humans to survive, we’d be absolutely useless.
English

@DrunkIrish_62 @haprho Do you know where to find flint that isn’t from a store? If you do, did you take some time to learn about the alternatives to it you might be able to find if flint isn’t available in your region? There is no way anyone can possibly know every little detail. So you write it down
English

@jackhorner32 @haprho But we still know how to flint knap.
Which completely destroys your point.
English

@DrunkIrish_62 @haprho What’s special is the educational value
English

@jackhorner32 @haprho What about the VCR are we going to forget about?
Recording A/V to magnetic tape?
Circuity?
I'm at a loss to think of anything in a VCR that is special.
English

@DrunkIrish_62 @haprho Humans haven’t needed to chip away at rocks to make arrowheads for a very long time. Why?
Because we made better.
The issue with that is that since that tech is obsolete, we’d have to rediscover obsolete manufacturing processes just to get back to metallurgy.
English

@DrunkIrish_62 @haprho The thing is, we all die. The guys who initially made VCRs are currently retired or dead, the guys who tinkered with VCRs when they stopped making them will die, and even me who vaguely even knows what they are will die.
We, as a species, will forget how it’s done. Write it down
English

@DrunkIrish_62 @haprho Dude, You’re getting triggered by an opinion. The thing is not a lot of people are actively thinking about all that tech anymore, anyway, so what makes you think 2 year olds are going to be thinking about it a decade from now? I’m guessing most of them won’t ever know it existed.
English

@DrunkIrish_62 @haprho I’m pretty sure the issue is right now is that You’re trying to argue with me on facts and I’m merely expressing an opinion that all technologies deserve to have their own record.
English

@DrunkIrish_62 @haprho Literally any technology. Write it down. Future generations learn about it. They then can make their own. Maybe not have to start from ground zero if some huge natural disaster hits. That is the entire framework of reasoning I’m using.
