Date: April 8th, 2026 12:41 AM Author: in the naked Because if you actually understand geometry, even if you grant that the global geometry is an oblate spheroid, the local chart doesn't just "seem flat" but actually is. A curved manifold is not curved by violating flatness everywhere in an obvious way. It is curved because the flat approximations from neighboring windows do not globally patch together without mismatch. For most local purposes the spherecuck modeling choice is overkill, and its presented as absolute truth in a mid-wit way.

I shit you not, were in the middle of fucking nowhere on a private vessel, yet within 5 minutes of the ice wall appearing on the horizon, we were buzzed by aircraft and told in no uncertain terms and like 9 different fucking languages, that if we didn’t turn around immediately and proceed to like the 60th parallel we’d be detained and our vessel seized. It was fucking nuts. Plus the waves in the furious 50s were INSANE. It was the scariest thing I’ve ever done. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5854903&forum_id=2...#49802926)
