Is the sun round?

What do you mean local here?

I suppose much depends on the agreed/assumed size, energy, and distance of the sun.

If the sun was smaller than the moon and just miles above the disk-like Earth, then yes, shadows would vary regardless of position.

That still requires a hypothesis as to how parts of the disk were day vs night, and the path the sun and moon would follow to facilitate this.

Sure.

I guess I lean towards disregarding those on the left's position that math is racist as well as those on the right's position that math is a psyop.

The calculations for determining shadow height differences at different spots on Earth for a given time (sun position) are relatively straightforward.

We have the technology now to verify those calculations simultaneously, which should be enough to deduce whether the Earth is more spherical vs disk shaped.

To be honest, I haven't look deeply into flat earth's hypothesis, but never ran into serious defenders of the idea before #Bitcoin Twitter.

My eyes tell me the earth is flat. So that's the starting point. Need to be convinced otherwise.

We are trying to prove round earth. Not disprove flat earth.

Of course, given we have been lied to for centuries there are many questions.

God I hope so.

Where do flat earthers suggest is the alternative course of the sun and moon? How do they move around the disk of the Earth?

They gotta fix that.

I still havent got an answer from #[0] as to why the Spiral logo is a pedo symbol

Ancient Greeks were able to determine that the surface of the Earth is curved by observing same-time shadow differences in like structures spanning their geography.

That same crude test can be extrapolated to hemispheres to illustrate day/night simultaneously.

Were the Greeks right? I think so, although I'd be open to a refutation that didn't deny the empirical.

Passwords are a big big problem for mainstream adoption of anything. For very basic stuff I just notice how most people and family around me just simply don't remember any password and repeat the same everytime... it's very scary to most of them to know that now it all depends on them.

Yes.. I know many may argue that is the price to pay... I'm just hoping one day we just figure it out.. and solve it so more people can go for full self custody of their bitcoins

I am traveling through south east Asia and often wonder what keeps a country poor around here.

Currently in Laos 🇱🇦, I learn today that import duties are 60 percent here.

60 fucking percent of any import, the government steals from the importer. That explains a lot of it, they rely on imports considering they don't have a lot of industry here.

If you compare development here to the neighbor Thailand, it's night and day.

No twitter for March. We doing this or what?

Is Nostr real or is a simulation?

I have 300 followers and none join the conversation?

How many people here is real, how many fake/bots?

still here

Spent time with a bunch of normies tonight. Can confirm they aren't aware of any problems and will never wake up.

Save yourselves

Agree. But probably a pilot of a smaller non G20 first.

I'm now down to consistent single digits view numbers on my tweets. Twitter is dead for anons like me. Not gonna doxx myself to buy the blue checkmark.

The world will fork into prosperous bitcoin and poor communist CBDC areas
