Hmm weird... it’s a Robert Sepehr video, if you know him
https://www.quora.com/Why-dont-we-feel-the-centrifugal-force-due-to-the-earths-movements
I hope you’re able to understand how the questions are related after reading that link
You asked why we don’t feel the centrifugal force from being on the surface of a rotating earth. She asked how fast that rotation would need to be for the centrifugal force to overcome gravity. I’m sorry you were dropped on your head as a kid, I hear there’s some great programs out there for people like you.
I’m sure digging that image out of your archives was the highlight of your day, but let’s just review what you said and what little Sallly Fruitcake said:
You:
but we can spin about the surface of the earth at super sonic speeds without feeling any motion?
Her:
How fast would Earth need to spin for humans to be thrown into space?
Seems to be the same core question, no?
Gravity is another unproven theory
Until you have a better one, with math backing it up, this isn’t a productive digression. I personally think the reality is something far more interesting and complicated than simple “gravity”, but, beyond a few interesting ideas (Holographic Universe being one of them, Electric Universe being another), we don’t have anything approaching an “answer” yet.
Windy mentioned convertible
Here’s his exact quote:
“ Earth being a convertible, there is no way it is moving.” Where the “it” being discussed is the atmosphere. My link does explain why the atmosphere (especially at the surface and the next few hundred feet) is moving (rotating) at roughly the same speed as the surface of the earth itself. This is known as the “no-slip boundary layer”, an indisputable fact of the physical world.
The other question:
Wondering how earths atmosphere doesn’t escape into the void of space
Has an entirely different answer, relating to entirely different forces than the first question. It can be boiled down simply however, because all that is relavent to this answer is the net forces present on the particles of gas in the atmosphere, and when the math is done, gravity dominates, and holds in our atmosphere (almost all of it - you might be aware that things like pure helium gas will have a balance of forces which yields a net force that overcomes gravity and escapes the atmosphere into space)
It’s called gravity genius. And that link is about the atmosphere being dragged by the earths rotation (no-slip boundary layer fluid dynamics), nothing to do with the force of gravity overcoming the other forces acting on particles of gas which make up the atmosphere (thus “holding in” the atmosphere without some kind of firmament or whatever it is you’re suggesting here). Two different concepts.
Here’s an article that answers your question, and it was written for a 10 year old girl:
You cant have a gas barrier around your [planet] that keeps the environment out.
That’s incorrect:

but I'm surprised I've never seen any threads calling for more AMAs and round tables, they really represented a golden era of the sub.
They really did, which is probably why they’ve been memory-holed so hard. Even years ago though I was getting fed up with how manipulated the various front pages were (r/con to a lesser extent than other subs, but still present for sure). The TuMORs campaign of subversion was long and meticulous. I can’t even browse there anymore, it’s just not a valuable use of time lol.
Cheers, and I hope you consider attempting to (continue to) resurrect that golden age here
Hey, do you remember when the man who made this video, Alan Green, did an ama on r/conspiracy? Was it you who set that up? I always thought that was awesome, how you got (I think) Whitney Webb, the “dark journalist” guy, and this guy Green to actually participate in discussions a bit.
Edit: found the AMA for anyone interested:
Did you miss the part where the atmosphere rotates with the earth?
It’s called a fluid boundary layer, look into it:
Well... you’re saying that “the official story” implies that the gun would function differently depending on the direction it’s fired, which is the thing I’m trying to address. But fair point about your actual belief being that the system isn’t rotating.
why would the momentum continue if the balloon is no longer attached to the spinning object
What’s going to stop it? A teensy bit of resistance from the wind? The wind that gets thinner and thinner the higher up you get? And anyway, hot air. An object in motion will stay in motion unless an opposing force acts on it, and I’m not seeing the source of the force which would counteract the balloons natural x-component of its velocity in your example.
When the ballon takes off it has that X-component already present in its velocity. Just think about what you’re saying dude.... you are saying that if you shoot a gun to the East, it will behave totally differently than if you shoot it to the West. Does that line up with your experiences?
Edit4yourEdit:
Are you seriously suggesting that insects don’t “burn” their equivalent of “fuel”? Have you heard of this thing called “chemical potential energy”?
People often talk about the logistics of something like the great pyramid. But rarely does anyone ever think about the massive amount of planning and math/engineering that would go into a structure that size.
This is a great point. Have you ever seen the John Anthony West produced show called “Magical Egypt”? It’s all about the wisdom encoded into the construction of a couple of different sites of ancient Egypt. Highly recommend to anyone interested!
Bullets can’t course-correct mid-flight by burning fuel dude. That’s what most of your “problems” reduce to: burning fuel to overcome naturally present forces
An apple randomly falling due to the stem snapping shouldn't have any force in the x axis, only y due to (g) acceleration at 9.81 m/s^2. (the cause of this can be debated elsewhere, but it does reliably occur.)
No offense, but this is incorrect. If you believe the earth is rotating, then everything on the earth is rotating with it, including the trees, and thus the apples on the tree. The apples still have an “X component” (aka horizontal motion).
Imagine you dropped an apple in a moving train.... does it fall straight down to your feet, or does it fall “behind” you as the train drives forward?
Exact same scenario here
Image shows grand catastrophes lining up temporally, at approximately 6,000 year intervals (each quarter ring in the image represents 3 cosmic months, aka one cosmic season of the Great Year).
Clearly much of our existence is cyclical.
Can you think of any aspect which isn’t?
Good share, but I thought we were encouraging nitter links these days?

It’s a known fact that Lucas took “Anakin” from the biblical “Anakim” , a race of giants, sons of Anak.
Skywalker should be obvious, the Nephilim (which the Anakim would be descendants of) are seen as the children of fallen angels and human wives.
The man who would be king aka archetypal myth, aka Joseph Conrad-ian “the hero’s journey”
OP made a good post, you shouldn’t be so quick to judge if you don’t understand something.
Ok boomer, q isn’t going to save you though, you know that right?
We’ve been here before. We’ll be here again.
Tell us more about the foil, faggot
I’ve seen some analysis which suggests this really was a school of war, with Chang’s focus on healing being anomalous, like his original decision to admit westerners. I’m interested though, have you ever found anything on video that was more believable or well documented? I gotta get back to Bao PuZi, that’s the probably with digital reading, if the bookmark gets forgotten or the link deleted, it’s too easy go on being lost.
